Before I get into what's in development here at Political CalculationsTM, I want to thank all you who have visited this blog in the short 1-1/2 months that have passed since going online. I greatly appreciate your patronage, and I hope that you have found the tools and discussion I've presented so far to be both useful and entertaining.
That having been said, here is what you can expect in the next several weeks:
- A comparison calculator for choosing between Social Security and the newly proposed Private Retirement Accounts option.
- The addition (or maybe I should say the subtraction) of state withholding taxes from your 2005 paycheck.
- Reviews of tools presented on other sites. For instance, did you know that the Heritage Foundation has their own Social Security vs. Private Retirement Accounts calculator? The National Center for Policy Analysis has one too. Are either of them any good? Heck, even I don't know yet!
- And, of course, the usual tweaking in the never-ending saga of site development....
I hope you stick around, and considering that the vast majority of you have discovered this site through the Carnival of the Capitalists, I hope to participate again there soon as well.
Welcome to the blogosphere's toolchest! Here, unlike other blogs dedicated to analyzing current events, we create easy-to-use, simple tools to do the math related to them so you can get in on the action too! If you would like to learn more about these tools, or if you would like to contribute ideas to develop for this blog, please e-mail us at:
