>> The problem is not structural and can be solved by tax increases (coupled with the change in the COL indexing). This remark, taken alone, is sufficient to determine that you haven't any idea what you're talking about. >> Then why didn't Greenspan and Reagan do something about it? They did. They raised taxes. And said, "This will get us by for a few years until the problem can be addressed more comprehensively. Raising taxes is not a solution, just a stopgap." Greenspan came out in favor of private accounts in principle (same as I have). He said go slow and that the effect on the financial markets was unpredictable. And besides, Greenspan is a hack, he supports the programs of whoever is in power at the moment. Greenspan a "hack"? LMAO.
