Social Security Here's a opinion piece about Social Security, written by U.S. Representative Diana DeGette, from today's Denver Post [February 6, 2005, "Honesty needed on Social Security"]. She writes, "With almost 50 years of solvency ahead of us, we have the time to determine the best way to invest our Social Security dues without engaging in risky schemes or cutting benefits.

Update: NewMexiKen: "Spendthrift." 6:40:16 AM
