       Social Security: The Manufactured Crisis

  The White House is hosting a two-day conference on the economy with special emphasis on Social Security starting tomorrow.

MARK WEISBROT, weisbrot@cepr.net, http://www.cepr.net, http://www.cepr.net/publications/facts_social_security.htm
Weisbrot is the co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research and co-author, with Dean Baker, of "Social Security: The Phony Crisis" (University of Chicago Press). He said today: "The following facts have been left out of the debate on Social Security 'reform':

-- According to the numbers used by everyone, including the President's Commission, Social Security can pay all promised benefits for the next 38 years without any changes at all. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) just upped that estimate to 48 years.

-- By either measure, the 'long-term problem' faced by Social Security over the whole next 75 years is actually less than it faced in each of the decades of the 1950s, 60s, 70s, and 80s.

-- By either measure, Social Security is more financially sound than it has been throughout most of its 69-year history.

-- The projected shortfall for the whole 75-year period is about 0.7 percent of GDP (according to Trustees' numbers which the President's Commission is using) or 0.4 percent of GDP (according to the CBO). This is about one-third to one-fifth of the cost to the Treasury of the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts, if made permanent."

DOUG HENWOOD, dhenwood@panix.com, http://www.leftbusinessobserver.com
Author of the book "After the New Economy," Henwood said today: "It looks like the Bush administration is going to try to sell Social Security privatization with the same strategy it used to sell the war in Iraq: fear, exaggeration, and lies. Last weekend, the president warned of 'looming disaster' for the system. That's just not true. The official projections show the system solvent for about four more decades -- and those projections themselves are made on the basis of economic and demographic projections that are implausibly, even irresponsibly, gloomy. At worst, the system faces easily manageable problems. With more plausible economic and demographic assumptions, it faces no problems at all."

ELLEN FRANK, efrank@ric.edu
Frank is a senior economist at the Poverty Institute at Rhode Island College. She said today: "President Bush is fond of saying that workers should be 'allowed' to save for retirement. But Americans are already allowed to save, are indeed encouraged to save through various tax-favored accounts. Yet most can't save nearly enough to retire on. Today, the majority of elderly Americans depend on Social Security for most of their income. This will become increasingly true as younger workers begin retiring with no private pensions -- nothing but their savings to fall back on. Social Security was intended to supplement individual savings and private pensions -- Roosevelt's three-legged stool. Turning Social Security into a savings plan is of benefit to absolutely no one but the financial firms who will manage all those individual accounts."

GOP Voter SUPPRESSION merits a RE-VOTE, resist unfairness just like Ukraine_ call to action

Millions were not given the courtesy to cast a vote due to every kind of gangstericm. We should let all those who couldn't vote and those who haven't to now vote. We started the vote a month early why not give it another week or two. "We the People" are the greatest super power on earth. All we are asking is fairness. Witnessing unfairness demands resistance whether private public or government. Our teachings on fairness and justice are in jeopardy every time we don't resist. The Judeo Christian, Islamic tether is the Abrahimic base.

Calling to Action the People of Earth (The Salt of the Earth) _Journalists, Artists, Wizards, Students, Cosmic citizens, Whistleblowers, Dormant 60s Activists, Ditto Heads and sellouts welcome back.

We need to come to our senses. Since the GOP election fraud attempt WE need to realize that WE can shut down the world and we have the support of the population of the planet at this time. Let us use the opportunities we have at hand right now to make a stand against Fascism. Never has the whole world been focused on anti fascism as they are right now.

Calling to Action People of Earth, The Salt of the Earth _Journalists, Artists, Wizards, Students, Cosmic citizens, Whistleblowers, Dormant 60s Activists, Ditto Heads and sellouts welcome back after all it's you unborn that will suffer.

Vermont to Secede From Dubya's America?

Vermont to Secede from Bush's America? FREE VERMONT!? Should Vermont secede from the USA and declare itself independent again (as it was from 1777 to 1791) under the Second Vermont Republic? This question was posed to attendees at a conference and town meeting, both held in Middlebury, VT, on the weekend after the national election, Nov. 5-7; and in both cases the answer was a nearly-unanimous YES.
