I had to blog this. I know it's a complete slam from the Dems, and not necessarily a non-partisan production. I know! But I still love it. Well, I don't love what it implies, of course. No one wants to lose money for retirement. But I have to say that this is certainly well executed.

True, they are currently being touted as "Personal Savings Accounts," but 'Private Account' gets the point across as well. I believe the author was making a link between the act of privitization and the resultant accounts. In fact, if I am not mistaken, the Personal Savings Accounts had a different name -- something along the lines of "investment account" -- when all this hoopla started in the Bush camp.
Here are some interesting "Cliff Notes" regarding the Social Security crisis, courtesy of Running Scared. I also love this post that refers to the process as "piratization." It shows just how personal that account is (not).
