I suggest you read text on the lower half of the page where they detail how they get those figures.

ps: I'm not embarassed for you darling, don't be embarrassed for me.
smoke and mirrors darling.
pretending that using 4% of your fica for private investment will cause you to lose 1500.00 a year is buying into the liberal mantra of "we need more of your money"
here's an idea, instead of pretending the 4% of YOUR money you'll no longer be handing over to the government is going to cut your SS payments when you retire, how about we force the government to cut wasteful spending by 4% so fully funding SS and privatizing 4% is a wash?
difficult concept when you buy into the "we're not taxed enough" idea the liberals trot out.
