Your 100% correct that is how they should have handled the money. Instead they started with a system of full retirement at 65. However at that time few of us lived that long so people paid in and many got nothing back letting the funds in the system grow.
Now many of us are collecting and a smaller and smaller percentage of people working are supporting us making the system unstable.
