Sarge, the accounting stuff is way beyond my feeble old brain. But, I think what Slider is saying is that they are getting ready to transfer the governments unfunded liabilities to- WE THE PEOPLE. I dont think those over 55, or 60 have to worry as everything Ive read says they will get an option to stay in the present system. But everyone under 55 will certainly be pumping their Social Security witholding money into stocks and bonds- and that is where the investment bankers are going to print money like never before. At least thats where I think Slider is going. This pump job here where all they had to do was lift a couple of key DOW components- may allow them to kill 3 birds with one stone. It will help the GOP in the elections, it will help consumer sentiment and take the press off of the housing bubble-burst story and it will build public support for changing the social security system- lining the pockets of investment banks and brokers. You both seem to be on the same page, just on different parts of the story. SargeK do not let ANYONE shake you or your good work. While it may not be new-news, the average person does not know just how shakey the system is. Thanks Ron
