Perhaps you are right, and a needs tested system would be preferable. I'll look more closely at privatization. Thanks!

Oh yea, lets all give the Federal government our retirement funds to invest for us. They're much smarter and more capable than we are. A federal judge yesterday held Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt and Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin in contempt of court for failing to turn over Indian trust records in a pending lawsuit. . . . The departments manage money from, among other sources, land settlements, royalties from minerals and other resources, and companies that use Indian land. Officials have been unable to produce accounting records or statements to verify how much cash has been collected. An audit by the Arthur Andersen accounting firm said the Bureau of Indian Affairs could not account for $2.4 billion in transactions involving the funds. washtimes.com
