Privatization Pep Rally

[bautiste at uswest.net]

That's basically what he said too. Tell me, does nayone question that
privatization is a "done deal"? The Albuquerque forum was just a way to
figure out the details.

Has anyone seen the recommendation that the FICA tax be raised 1.1% for
both taxpayer and employer, and this would keep SS solvent until 2075. Are
there any serious problems with that suggestion? Are the numbers on this
tax hike hard enough to make this a serious proposal?
