They "corrected" it online. of course, the correction screws up the entire article, but whatever.

Correction to This Article
An earlier version of this article incorrectly described how new private accounts would work under President Bushs Social Security plan. This article has been corrected.

The headline is still misleading!

\Participants Would Lose Some Profits From Accounts/

The story goes on to say:

\They should be able to recoup those lost benefits through their private accounts, as long as their investments realize a return greater than the 3 percent that the money would have made if it had stayed in the traditional plan./

So a correct headline would read:

\Participants Would Lose Some Profits From Accounts if return on accounts are less than 3%/
