"One way to do that would be to create a true "lockbox" that allows people to put their share of the surplus into their own personal account to help fund their retirement. But the account would be limited to no-risk, but marketable, Treasury bills. Every taxpayer who voluntarily chose to create a T-Bill personal account would, in effect, own the key to his own lockbox, containing a significant chunk of their future benefits. The surpluses would become real assets owned by citizens rather than government IOUs--or, more accurate, "I owe me's"--piling up in a filing cabinet in a federal office in West Virginia."

An EXCELLENT SUGGESTION!

this is the proposal put forward by Pollack at the American Enterprise Institute --- I'm happy to see old 'Kraut' coming onboard!

So, WHERE IS THE PRESIDENT??????????
