标题：America's Social Security trust fund is disappearing.
 
Legislators have just six years to fix things.

正文：America’s social Security trust fund for the country's elderly citizens is now more than old enough to be drawing a pension itself. When the programme launched in 1940, its future must have seemed assured. Lots of money went in and little came out: for each retired person drawing benefits, more than 150 workers were contributing to the fund, which invested in Treasury securities.

知识点：drawing /ˈdrɔːɪŋ/v.（动词 draw 的现在分词形式）
本义为 “画；拉；吸引”，外刊财经社保语境核心义为 领取（养老金、福利等）（本文特指符合条件的美国退休公民从社会保障信托基金中按月领取养老金福利）
核心搭配：draw a pension、draw benefits、draw unemployment benefits、draw a salary、draw allowance
・America's Social Security trust fund is now old enough to be drawing a pension itself. 美国的社会保障信托基金如今都已经到了该领养老金的年纪了。
・Millions of elderly Americans rely on drawing Social Security benefits to cover their basic living expenses. 数百万美国老年人依靠领取社会保障福利来支付基本生活开支。
