Okay, let's look at this ad again and take it point by point. What's in a word. If words are important, and they seem to be here; Sununu does not use the word "privatize". When the bipartisan President's Commission to Strengthen Social Security issued its final report last December, it concluded "social security will be strengthened if modernized to include a system of voluntary personal accounts" and that is the term Sununu uses. He says such accounts would be voluntary, although he did vote in 1999 for the Personal Lockbox bill that would have made such accounts mandatory. Not quite out of the system. The President's commission also stated "Partial advance funding of Social Security should be a goal of any effort to strengthen the system" and that funding "can best be accomplished through personal accounts". Sununu's plan would put about $1 trillion of the estimated $2.4 trillion Social Security surplus into those private accounts, which the commission regards as part of the social security system. It's not that simple. As for cuts, Sununu has pledged that funding of private accounts would be suspended before any benefits cuts. He has also said that raising taxes is not an option, though since that trillion dollars would no longer be available for the government to borrow to turn into treasury notes, which in turn help cover deficits, that could create pressure to raise taxes. Finally, as for the call for him to start telling the truth - well, it is an election season. #1 WHAT'S IN A WORD? #2 NOT QUITE #3 NOT THAT SIMPLE |

Again, let's look at this ad point by point. We think this claim is misleading because so much depends on how you define state spending - and this is where it gets complicated. The state actually spent more than $2 billion in fiscal year 1993, the first year Republican Steve Merrill was governor - and last year, spent over 3.3 billion - but those figures include all spending including capital expenditures and disbursement of federal funds. What this ad seems to refer to as state spending is how the general fund - money raised through state taxes and fees - is spent - but then it adds the education fund from the statewide property tax which came into existence in response to the Claremont law suit. As a result of that tax, state education spending went from 274 million in 1999 to over $1 billion in 2000. There's more to this story. As noted, state spending went up because local property taxes were essentially relabeled as state taxes. Shaheen did pledge to veto any broad-based tax in the 1996 and 1998 campaign, but abandoned the pledge in 2000, saying she needed to be "flexible" to tackle the school funding issue. After the Republican-dominated House rejected her EXCEL sales tax plan and passed the statewide property tax, she did sign the bill - though it was not the first, that distinction belonging to a tax passed in 1789. This is classic spin. Semantics aside, taking growth and inflation into account, it's natural that every year there is record spending and record taxes. It all depends on how you read the numbers and word the results. #1 MISLEADING #2 THERE'S MORE #3 SPIN |
