WASHINGTON (AP) – Three years after the collapse of President Bush’s plan for private Social Security accounts, Republican presidential contenders are eager to try again. Not so the Democrats, who gravitate toward increasing payroll taxes on upper-income earners to fix the program’s finances.

Thompson’s proposal, by contrast, includes lower-than-promised benefits for future retirees, as well as new private accounts to make Social Security solvent for 75 years. “If somebody’s got a better idea let them put it on the table,” he said recently, daring his rivals.

It’s Ponzi scheme. The scheme is unraveling. And, with most such schemes, the last ones in are the losers.
