“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

Calculating your Social Security reduction is easy!

I've been waiting for one of these to pop up.

I stand to lose 27% of my annual Social Security benefit under the Bush plan.

Figure out how much you'll lose here. It's fun! Show your kids how much poorer you will be, and how much more you will rely on them in the future if privatization goes through! Show junior how little he can expect if he starts working! Great for the whole family!

Thanks Sen. Schumer!
