The system’s also stuck with low-yield government bonds, not stocks, for stability—and while Disability Insurance looks solid, its payouts will eventually tap into the strained Old-Age fund. Everyone’s betting on the future: claim early for now, or wait for more later—Congress’s choices will decide how it all plays out.
