Insert by Vincent Peter Render,
If I recall correctly, 1958 is the first year that Congress, not President Eisenhower, voted to remove some funds from Social Security and put it into the General Fund for Congress to spend.
If I recall correctly, it was a democratically controlled Congress.
>From what I understand, Congress logic at that time was that there was so much money in Social Security Fund that it would never run out / be used up for the purpose it was intended / set aside for.
