USA Today on Social Security:

In Monday's edition of USA Today, there were two useful essays about Social Security. An alarmist "our view" (i.e. USAT's) and a more reassuring "opposing view".

The hot quote:

" ...Congress, with the administration's blessing, taps an estimated $2.5 trillion in Social Security surpluses over the next decade to pay for other programs."

Either way, the issue should get more coverage than it has recently - especially in light of Bush's proposed additional tax cuts.
