It really does take an accountant to understand all the transfers, loans and IOU's. Kind a like Enron accounting, eh?

You must be an accountant?

I'm sure I am missing something, but if we privatize SS (which I think is a good idea) we will have to borrow more money than we would to fully fund SS because we are removing revenue that would be going to pay for future SS benefits.

Are you saying that privatization will not raise the over all debt?

Thanks,
