Well, considering that the figures are highly influenced by the right wing lie that pensions are a drain on the coffers (which only happens if funding in is cut) I'm not too confident of their methodology.

But frankly the Mercatus Centre's methodology is going to be shit no matter what. They're Chicago/Austrian School, and all their research will work to the free market conclusion anyway.

I'll read the full doc later to see where else they've holes in their thinking.
