I never attempted to care about the conversation.Funny how you "realize" this when nothing you refer to is part of the conversation.I've realized one good thing from this thread: The overwhelming majority of Americans and almost every single senior citizen will never let social security be done away with, so keep moaning and trying to blame seniors.

I've realized one good thing from this thread...
Nothing discussed in this thread has anything to do with what you "realized"; your claimed realization must, therefore, be a lie.
"Dependable monthly income" ROFLAO!! WHen Obama threatened to withold checks, how dependable was it? A huge number of workers under 50 believe they will never see a penny of SS. The system itself projects its onw insolvency. That isnt dependable.We have developed 401ks and IRAs to encourage Americans to invest in the private sector for their retirement
These devices have replaced pensions in most companies. Social Security is the only source of dependable monthly retirement for most Americans
All Americans should be encouraged to have a retirement fund, Social Security and a paid off home to cover their retirement
People need to be able to depend on themselves, not the government.
Then why do you continue to post?I never attempted to care about the conversation.Funny how you "realize" this when nothing you refer to is part of the conversation.I've realized one good thing from this thread: The overwhelming majority of Americans and almost every single senior citizen will never let social security be done away with, so keep moaning and trying to blame seniors.

Yeah....walk into the nearest retirement home and tell folks with Alzeheimers' that "people need to be able to depend on themselvesmot the government's (Medicare and SS)......See how youll be cheered as a "hero."
Jeb Bush Next president should privatize Social Security
The one good thing is, he will never get elected now..

If you aren't self-reliant, you are a slave to whoever supports you.Yeah....walk into the nearest retirement home and tell folks with Alzeheimers' that "people need to be able to depend on themselvesmot the government's (Medicare and SS)......See how youll be cheered as a "hero."
Buying insurance is part of being self-reliant.If you aren't self-reliant, you are a slave to whoever supports you.Yeah....walk into the nearest retirement home and tell folks with Alzeheimers' that "people need to be able to depend on themselvesmot the government's (Medicare and SS)......See how youll be cheered as a "hero."
Why do you want to be a slave?
-You- related the necessity of SS to poor investment choices, in that it is necessary to cover people because you often do not know that your choices are bad until after yo make them.Buying insurance is part of being self-reliant.If you aren't self-reliant, you are a slave to whoever supports you.Yeah....walk into the nearest retirement home and tell folks with Alzeheimers' that "people need to be able to depend on themselvesmot the government's (Medicare and SS)......See how youll be cheered as a "hero."

Who would be required to do that?It would be better to do away with SS completely than to have a government program whereby you were required to invest in stocks and corporate bonds.

He just lose the election right out of the gate. something's shouldn't be privatized...
SSI is one of them...
You dont recall that the issue was the government would be making teh buy/sell decisions, giving them unprecedented power.I don't suppose that anyone arguing in favor of privatization recalls that back when we actually had a budget surplus, and Al Gore suggested allowing people to keep part of their SS taxes in govt vetted broad based mutual fund like vehicles (which included blends of bonds, equities, commodities and real estate, with various mixes to NOT have people near retirement age in more volatile investments like equities) THE GOP IN ALAN GREENSPAN nixed the idea because it would "inflate" and and artificially change the value in markets
The issue taken here is your use of the term "required".Other than government bonds which are backed by the exact same entity as Social Security, what else do you propose we allow people to invest in, in their privatized social security accounts?Who would be required to do that?It would be better to do away with SS completely than to have a government program whereby you were required to invest in stocks and corporate bonds.
We can add insurance to the list of things you dont understand.Buying insurance is part of being self-reliant.If you aren't self-reliant, you are a slave to whoever supports you.Yeah....walk into the nearest retirement home and tell folks with Alzeheimers' that "people need to be able to depend on themselvesmot the government's (Medicare and SS)......See how youll be cheered as a "hero."

Why do you believe that anyone will be required to invest in anything under any plan to privatize part of SS?
You are seriously retarded.We can add insurance to the list of things you dont understand.Buying insurance is part of being self-reliant.If you aren't self-reliant, you are a slave to whoever supports you.Yeah....walk into the nearest retirement home and tell folks with Alzeheimers' that "people need to be able to depend on themselvesmot the government's (Medicare and SS)......See how youll be cheered as a "hero."
