A lie, but then, I already know your stand on keeping families from their retirement monies.It would be a good beginning. Anything that gets politicians hands out of people's retirement is nothing but a good thing.Again, moving a small % would just be the beginning of making SS more private.
If you're saying a % should go into the stock market, that's fine. However, the current idea being offered up in the "roadmap" for example is to ration medicare.
Turning it into a system of vouchers fails to take in several factors such as the Insurance companies raising their premiums all the damn time. So people like the elderly are going to have to pay more out of pocket OR have less coverage.
I find it amazing after all the "Obama's going to ration our health care!" calls that this roadmap is gaining support from those same people except this rations medicare.
Far more Americans have lost retirement funds and healthcare coverage in the private sector than have ever lost their Social Security or Medicare. The private sector is a financial predator that should never be trusted to protect Americans.
