The Administration’s plan contains key elements that would allow workers to divert part of their payroll taxes (FICA) into private accounts and change the formula under which benefits are calculated. The impact of these proposals would affect retirees on fixed incomes, and amount to taking a huge gamble on the types of investments that workers made throughout their working careers. Mistakes in investment strategy could result in reduced market returns or financial ruin. Ref.
