In which program? Because I gave you the figures already. SSA has about an $9B budget for $400B in outlays. 2% isn't high even by credit card company standards.

Burger, you are schizo on this issue. You say the above, but you suggest that private industry will do this more cheaply. How? Your own data suggests that is extremely unlikely, especially given that there needs also to be a profit margin built in.
And even if privatization saves the gov't half -- and how likely is a reduction to 1% TOTAL for admin costs and profit? -- we've saved a whopping $4.5 billion. Woo-de-fucking-hoo.
On the other hand, that leaves Club with only $653 billion more "pork" to cut, so.....
