The first year difference between fully funded Low Cost and an Intermediate Cost that goes to zero in 2041 is $2.7 billion. Not only did we hit Low Cost, we beat it by $11.2 billion.
The Trust Fund just isn't broke. By the numbers.

bruce,
you can email me for my enlightenment re bend points.
i don't know if i am still able to learn much. but i have some access to the local paper and a few people who tell me they like what i write, so if i can reach a point where i understand your argument well enough to defend it i will try to tell them about it.
Bruce: Just wanted to tell you what a great comment you left over at Digby. I know it is a dead thread, but when I see something that is well said and insightful I like to tell the author. And if you never came back you wouldn't have heard me.
