If we were to subtract social security from the government's accounting (on the assumption that what goes in goes back out and is not a fee for service nor a grant and is not income for the government) how would that affect the pie?

They stripped the Social Security fund to support the Vietnam war, so now they(we) have to pay for Social Security.

Wars do not actually help the economy.
