DID RUBIO JUST SCREW HIMSELF WITH THE FISCAL-SOCIAL WINGNUTS?

(I used hyphenation as a short-hand for pointing out that the fiscal conservatives also have a concept of a person in society that seemingly differs little from that of a rat in a Skinner Box.  In this perspective, George Mankiw and Sean Hannity are in agreement.)

Tanya Somanader at Think Progress found that Bagger hero Marco Rubio has rejected the winger plan to privatize Social Security:

STEPHANOPOULOS: Let’s– let’s try to wrap this up and then move on to the next round of questioning. On the question of privatization, you’ve raised some charges, as well. And I just want a yes or no answer. Is it still on the table?

RUBIO:It is not. Because it doesn’t work. Because you’re taking payers out of the sys[tem].
