My point is that we won't see anything until after the plan goes into effect. The devil's in the details, as they say, but (strangely, to my mind) we can't know the details until Bush is safely re-elected because the program won't start until then.

You evidently reached your conclusions in regards to this matter a priori. That's a rather odd stance for a social scientist. I presume one can claim to possess whatever credentials one wants in an anonymous forum--I just assumed you would be a bit more careful to ensure your behavior was consistent with your claims.
