Social Security crisis arrives at the NY Times. The NYT notices a boo-boo in Social Security’s math: “…the Social Security Administration underestimates how long Americans will live and how much the trust funds will need to pay out — to the tune of $800 billion by 2031, more than the current annual defense budget — and that the trust funds will run out, if nothing is done, two years earlier than the government has predicted.” A lot of these “oopsies” have and will be surfacing in the MSM now that the election is over.
