Excerpts: Last week someone leaked a memo written by Peter Wehner, an aide to
Karl Rove, about how to sell Social Security privatization. The public, says Mr.
Wehner, must be convinced that "the current system is heading for an iceberg."

 It's the standard Bush administration tactic: invent a fake crisis to bully
people into doing what you want. (...) "the Social Security battle is one we can
win." (...)

The administration expects us not to notice, however, that the supposed solution
would do nothing to reduce that cost.
