No where in that quote is he saying that private accounts are a "fix". He states that "voluntary personal retirement accounts" are a better deal for younger workers.
This tax proposal is a "fix" for the impending bankruptcy of SS. The private accounts are a means to improve the system for the younger workers in America.
