| 28. The undermining isn't the funding |

This is undermining it politically. Ever wonder why such a regressive means is used to fund Social Security? It's to prevent it from being "just another program." FDR wanted, and fought for, the payroll tax because it established clear and unambiguous ownership in the program by each contributor. That ownership is beginning to be blurred and it will be very troublesome.
