If Enron hadn't collapsed, and Sherren Watkins' prognostication that its collapse was one and a half to two years out, maybe a portion of employee retirement withheld from paychecks would have gone to Enron. The more information that comes out about that company, the more miraculous their failure becomes.

Actually Al Gore and many democrats were in favor of social security reform with investing in the stock market. Its tough to argue with a historical 7+% return versus 2% with social security. But Bush was the first one to make it a campaign issue and Gore automatically took the other side. As for this administrations ties with end don't lose any sleep over it. I bet Ken Lay didn't lose any sleep when Clinton let him stay in the Lincoln bedroom.
