GG Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 well i do not believe in privatizing SS...that seems to be GW's plan 96060[/snapback] But that is not his plan. His plan (whatever soundbite was revealed) was that for many people, SS would remain constant. But for younger people and everyone going forward, people would retain more controil over their retirement accounts. basic personal accountability. Same as his proposal to shift the cost of medical insurance to the individuals from the employers. Great proposal that got hammered in party rhetoric that has nothing to do with the merits of the proposals. But hell, we'll be dead when the next generation has to deal with it. Worse yet, we'll take 40 years to die and have the next generation pay 100% of our medical costs.

I was hoping Kerry gets in so he can raise taxes on everyone, to support entitlement for everyone. Of course companies will lay people and go bankrupt, but Kerry has a plan for that. At least we'll all have medical insurance and social security.

VabeachBledsoefan Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Did you know Social Security cost more than the budget for National Defense? 96115[/snapback] Yes I do
Alaska Darin Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Yes I do 96244[/snapback] Can't wait to see the number once the baby boomers retire. Then we will be bankrupt because the Democrats AND Republicans won't have the excess SS money to steal to fund their other bull stevestojan.
