Some people think wishfully that rapid economic growth will enable the Social Security system to muddle through pretty much as is. Others talk in either-or terms--either funnel most future budget surpluses into Social Security and invest some of that money in the stock market, or increase Social Security taxes and modestly reduce benefits--and the problem will be solved...

PLAY THE STOCK MARKET. By now there is wide agreement that stock and bond markets could in effect pay much of the nearly 30% of pensions that Social Security taxes will eventually no longer cover.

...course, we enter the uncertain and fraught territory of social change--the gun debate alone is already deafening--but not all the social advocates are woolly-headed. The awkwardly named group Fight Crime: Invest in Kids counts eight crime survivors and more than a dozen police chiefs on its advisory board, including former New York City police commissioner William Bratton. The Washington-based group's four-point plan is touchingly well meaning: 1) give kids something to do after school; 2) make sure young children have access to quality child care; 3) help schools identify troubled kids early and provide...
