re: But hey, I thought you were all for SS privatization, or at least the partial privatization plan that Bush proposes.

In principle I'm for partial.

re: Maybe you're arguing against the notion that the $2T in transition costs will return $10T later, but Krugman makes no mention of this "nuance."

I guess you have to read all of Krugman's articles, there have been 4 I think in sequence. It's not an issue you can address in 200 words.

BTW, the $2Trillion is only for the first 10 years. It goes up after that. I believe I read another incremental ~$4Trillion.

There is just no way we can afford it.
