With SS and Medicare in debt some $50 Trillion, projected to climb substantially over the coming decade, are you trying to claim the wheels aren't falling off here?

The wheels fell of here long ago. But because they've hidden the damage by bogus accounting techniques, you people cannot see it.

,i>That is because the wheels fell off. It seems like the critics of privatization were correct, it failed in a similar manner as critics warned against.
