We did have a chance to look at what you and the Congressman have offered, and we think that makes a significant contribution to this discussion and debate, and we appreciate that.
People are smart, and if you just share with them the basic information, a lot of people will make a good decision.
We did a whole series of things in our Social Security reform not to discourage people from working, but to encourage them to continue working if they are able to do so.
We all know that Social Security is going to have to be dealt with, or we are going to face by 2034 at the latest--many of us believe it will be earlier than that---an across-the-board 23-percent cut.
