Here's the amusing part of the current Social Security flap.

In the future, when the Social Security shortfall is projected to occur, Social Security obligations could be easily met through the issuance of public debt ---

--- much less public debt than is now being suggested as a requirement for a small partial privatization scheme.

Does that make any sense to you? It doesn't to me.

The largest beneficiary of the war against Iraq has been Halliburton. Who will be the beneficiary of a debt funded partial privatization scheme?

In America where politics is driven by money, John Dewey said "Government is the shadow cast by big business". It seems no less true today.
