  1. Don’t know about Reid, but your link seems to have got the Bush program wrong.

    And actually using “average” rates of return is somewhat misleading here, since bull/bear markets run in multi-year cycles.

    A better metric is one that uses a model including these cycles, and establishes a 95% or so confidence interval that a return is better than a certain amount.

    Of course, that would be bad for any piratization program.

  2. Um, not at all, have you ever read the law?

    SS is an entitlement, and the Bush boys want to pirate it away

    Rather apt, I’d say…

  3. And, at least we “tax and spend” socialists actually pay for what we spend, as opposed to the “borrow, spend, then screw the middle and lower classes with more taxes” Republicans.

    If history teaches us one thing, it’s to hide your wallet when a Republican comes around to “cut your taxes.”

  4. Democrats aren’t exactly notorious for paying taxes, John, so you might want to revise that “we” stuff. Your other claim is people keeping their own money amounts to piracy.

    You should check out some sources of opinion other than the Janeane Garafolo show on Air America, dude.
