Tellingly, the people who propose privatization are using projections about SS's doom that do not jibe with the projections about how wonderful private accounts will be.

We have been over this before, but you know that I have never argued that SS should be privatized because of an impending crisis. If all we want to do is "fix" the current system, there are easier ways to do it.
But it is nice how you reliable bring back this straw man.
