>>This is hatched by the same folks who gave you bank deregulation. Yours is very simplistic analysis to say the least. I suspect you have genuine worries about what McCain-like politicians will do this time around. But the two acts - "deregulation" (which wasn't) and this present reform are very different. Remember this reform is opposed by the political heirs of those that hatched Social Security, the source of all the problems. >>I am thinking--I am thinking this is a pandering attempt to fix what isn't broken. Oh yeah? Thanks to the fraud known as Social Security, today's children face a lifetime tax rate of about 85% or more. >> If it's meaningful, it carries too many perils with it; Oh sure. Message 13640341 >>if it's unmeaningful ("only 2%"), then why do it at all? It's a start and the best hope for people digging themselves out of the demographic and financial time bomb left to them by FDR and the Dems.
