I just came across this from findlaw.com on the subject of SS (and medicare)... The 2009 Social Security Trustees' Report: Good News Behind the Headlines FindLaw guest columnist, George Washington law professor, and Economics PhD Neil Buchanan argues that the dire headlines and commentary about Social Security, in the wake of this year's Trustees' report, paint a much bleaker picture than is truly accurate. Buchanan puts the facts and figures regarding Social Security carefully in context, and assuages young people's fears that, by the time they retire, there will be nothing left for them. In fact, he contends, there is no question that their benefits' buying power will exceed that of their grandparents' benefits. Buchanan also warns about conflating the fates and situations of Social Security and Medicare, when the latter is indeed in serious trouble. Thursday May 21, 2009 writ.news.findlaw.com
