State pension plans when they arent being fooled by enron execs follow long standing fiduciary guidelines that work. Hell, i would be for keeping the existing system but investing part of the funds in something as benign as vanguard total market. Anything that will increase the yield over time will delay the coming crash in SS.

someone overdrew their account via a debit card. The banks are under no obligation the notify you of overdrafts. This doesn't make sense to me. I thought the whole idea of a debit card was that the system would reject a purchase when funds were insufficient. Otherwise, it would be a credit card.
