Reid's proposed Social Security Changes

Harry Ried has posted a social security calculator on his web site.The final numbers have been adjusted for inflation, however on Reid’s website; it figures only a 3% return.I used his calculations and bumped up the return to a more realistic number. I also added a line to the table that shows exactly what type of return you’ll get based on Harry’s plan (Oh that’s right he doesn’t have one).

* The numbers displayed are not accurate. They should not be counted as accurate since the calculations were pulled from Harry Reid’s web site and then modified. As the old saying goes, you can’t make chicken salad out of chicken shi**!
