Nearly one-fifth of full-time employed Americans have raided retirement accounts in the past year to cover emergencies, according to a national Bankrate survey.

More Fraudulent Suggestions: "Solving" Debt Crisis

http://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=184985

[snip]

Social Security and Medicare would be taken off-sheet - that is, their legal status as "not really debt" would be turned into reality from a debt perspective.

There's nothing like admitting in public and advocating for what I've said for the last four years in this column: Social Security and Medicare are not debts to from a standpoint of the government and you have no right to one thin dime of that alleged benefit.

Now you're seeing actual proposals to formalize that legal reality into actual policy in the form of cooking the books of the Federal Government.

First Ben Bernanke steals all the retirees income with his ZIRP policies, then the government ratifies in formal policy what has been the case in the law for 30 years - they steal all the Social Security and Medicare funds by declaring them not debt.
