Of Lies, and Lying Liars

from The Center for Economic and Policy Research
Social Security is currently more financially sound than it has been throughout most of its entire history. To cover any shortfalls that may occur over the next 75 years would require less than we came up with in each of the decades of the 1950s, 60s, 70s, or 80s. All we have to do to save Social Security is to keep the privatizers' hands off of it.

Maybe another way of putting it is that if the money really wasn't there, then why would these companies want their hands in an empty pot? The reason they want a piece of the take is because that's where the take is.
