Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them
E.J. Dionne writes:
The president's proposal for private accounts in Social Security is Exhibit A for eggheadism. There was little popular demand for these accounts. Most Americans like Social Security as it is. (my emphasis)
Here's what Americans really think about Social Security, based on a poll question that was far from unique; this is what the public has told pollsters about Social Security again and again:
14. Which of the following four statements comes closest to your own view of the Social Security program - would you say the program is in crisis, the program has major problems but is not in crisis, the program has minor problems or the program has no problems?
Crisis 25
Major probs. 49
Minor probs. 23
No probs. 1
No opin. 1
So 74% of Americans think that Social Security is in crisis or has major problems. Poll after poll has shown this! How can E.J. Dionne go on writing that "most Americans like Social Security as it is?" Does he think American prefer their government programs to be in crisis?
