Everyone knows Social Security is in trouble. Baby Boomers are aging quickly and the system is not able to pay out for all of them. Cassandra Devine has a great idea to fix this sytem...voluntary "transistioning" that includes tax breaks and subsidies. Yes, if the old people would just die, the system can continue. It is ALL voluntary, let me assure you. Cassandra is a wonderful character but is one of many in this book. Typical of Buckley's writing, the satire comes fast and furious. There is an ambitious senator who may be on his way to the White House, an evangelcal pro-lifer who may have killed his own mother and the mentor/boss who loves Cass like a daugher. Which is good because her own father has abandoned her and will play his part speaking out against her. Funny stuff!
