Default Re: Savings Rate Goes Negative

If by "self-financing" you mean that taxpayers fund the accounts and that the federal government, i.e. taxpayers, pay the interest on the funds' investments, then I would agree with you.

By the way, can you convince my payroll administrator that the trust funds are "self-financing"? She seems to think that I have to make a sizeable payment to FICA each pay period.
