I can see the headline now:

Year 2007, Wallstreet.

"Social Security private accounts go belly up!"

"Just 2 years after the Bush administration forced the concept of private accounts on U.S. citizens, and 51% (same number that voted for the idiot) of the country invested their life savings into the market, the stock market crashes due to the dieing value of the U.S. Dollar and the largest deficit in history."

In other news: "Halliburton closes deal with Chinese government to assist in the U.S. relief effort."

OK, I might be making this up but it could happen?
