Biology can solve the Social Security debate

William Saletan has an excellent piece on the justification for raising the retirement age and the positive impact it would have on Social Security solvency. But it's like fine ice cream up to the point where he tosses in a dollop of bullshit at the end. He trots out the idea that once the fix is working then would be the time for private accounts. WTF? Wouldn't it be better to give a payroll tax break with the resultant surplus. You know, a little something for the folks who work for a living and didn't make out like bandits on the Bush (hswib) breaks for the rich! Shilling for the bastards, Mr Saletan! Such a waste of a pretty decent talent.
