Social Security, By the Way…

I subscribe to The Kiplinger Letter. Among other things, I find it a predictor of the “official story” combined with a useful flow of tax and regulatory information.

This week, Kiplinger describes the ravaged retirement savings of Americans and then points out that the government will not be able to help with “Social Security likely facing cuts in benefits.”

I used to have a Washington reporter who worked for my last company. She called that “burying the lead.”
