Relative to the $7 trillion mutual fund industry, it's very little money, maybe one or two percent in returns.

Those who say there's no problem and there's plenty of time are offering a misleading argument that the Social Security Trust Fund somehow has assets that can be used to draw upon starting in 12 years to pay benefits, but the trust fund does not contain cash or bonds or stocks to turn into funds.
