#2 I'm going for the "stuffing it in a mattress and hope the house doesn't burn down or I get robbed" strategy.

The Fed and the Treasury are working on that one too by printing tons of the stuff to make your holdings worth - well - mattress stuffing.

#3 I am not an accountant but: Since they are paying OUT more money than is coming in AND there is no wallet/lock-box/mattress that keeps that fund separated, wouldn't it be right to say it is ALREADY empty.

#4 Let's see: my state run (Arizona) pension and now my S.S. are possible goners for this Tucson based teacher. Guess I'll have to find a job with the cartels as a mule. :((
