The story behind this shirt
The most serious attempt was President George W. Bush's 2005 push for personal retirement accounts, paired with slower benefit growth for middle- and high-earning workers. Modeling of that plan, for people retiring in 2025, found low, low-middle, and middle earners would have received total benefits 3 to 8 percent above those scheduled under current law, and the highest earners 2 to 4 percent below, according to a 2025 review by the American Enterprise Institute's Andrew Biggs, who supported the original proposal. The front print says "Bush's accounts closed two-thirds of the gap." and, under it, the address of the Social Security page on this site, where the claim sits with its evidence, the best case against it, and the answer.
