Not really. It was pay-as-you-go for most of its history. Then the gov't made adjustments (generating a surplus to be invested in bonds) to account for demographic changes in 1982. A big portion of our debt (roughly 16%) is to SS.
Good parroting of assorted ridiculous myths in the rest of your post, though. Too much to get into. One big one, FYI, is that when the trust fund runs out (and note that there would be none if you were right), it would revert to being pay-as-you go, but would only be funded at about three quarters.
Myths? You mean like analysis by David. M. Walker, former US Comptroller of the Government Accounting Office?

Perhaps you'd prefer something more friendly like a youtube video?
Or did you mean poor information sources like internal analysis by the St. Louis Reserve Bank?

If you actually take the time to do the math, look at fiscal obligations and revenues and project them forward with varying rates of projected economic growth and changes in demographics, you will find very quickly that the conclusions are inescapable.
More importantly if you strip out the economic "static" that is introduced in actual government reporting and categorization, you'll find that at best you get extraordinarily optimistic numbers (pipe dreams) being presented both by government and by industry to the public.
It's not much different than most negative scenario's. Try doing some research into the actual rate of water depletion in the South West and compare that to what is actual put forward to the public.
In finance circles outside of the US (and some inside) it's pretty much acknowledged that the US is screwed. Just as it was predicted as far back as 2006 that there would be at least a partial derivative meltdown, and that the PIGS (Portugal, Ireland, Greece and Spain) were headed for big trouble.
Did any of this make the mainstream press? Or course not. Why would major money groups want to make advantageous information commonly known? However when you look at these kinds of areas, you rapidly realize that the cold math of finance and economics are inescapable. You might as well pretend that gravity doesn't exist.
However, keep on cruising if it makes you happy. There's nothing like peace of mind.
