"Thursday's editorial 'Insecurities of Social Security' was correct in stating that a major problem with the current system is lack of ownership. In 1960, the Supreme Court ruled in Fleming v. Nestor that workers have no right to the benefits that they have been paying. This allows Congress to do things like use Social Security benefits to pay off student loans. The only solution to the problem of the insecurities of Social Security is instituting a system of personal accounts where each citizen has sole ownership of his or her benefits. As an added bonus, personal accounts also create a sustainable framework for what is currently a system headed for financial disaster. "
