I am bothered by the use of 10 year periods, or 75 year periods to predict budgets.

We have numerous examples of privatization already being used successfully. The Alabama State retirement fund is totally privatized and divided among many types of investments, with a big portion being tangible, income earning assets.

Then there are Federal employees who opt out of Social Security and choose among investment packages to grow their savings.
