Capitalism on the march!

Newt Gingrich passes out candy and cake, describing a plan that doesn't exist.

"If you frame the private Social Security accounts as giving your children the right to choose, as opposed to cutting benefits or forcing anyone to do anything, I think it's a total winner for us," Mr. Gingrich said in an interview. "The accounts will create the first 100 percent capitalist society in history. Fifty years from now, relatively poor Americans for the first time will have their own personal savings; they'll see the power of interest buildup over time and appreciate the importance of property."

"100 percent," huh?

Oh, really?

I see.

Who knew?


Well, "100 percent capitalist society" for the poor as they watch their interest compound... Lucky duckies.
