Do you think the "BP oil fund" will be as safe and secure as the social security trust fund? - User Deleted - 11-18-2012 01:06 PM
I sure hope so, we need that social security money and government is just the thing we need to protect it!

That's sarcasm, right? The Social Security fund is empty, and will be propped up by more and more taxes till we make nothing.
BP Oil fund? please. I think they should be able to sue BP directly.

well maybe the tobacco trust fund

I hope so too. Social Security has benefitted so many people, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. An example of everybody benefitting from government programs.

as long as the Republicans can't get their greedy sticky fists on it, it will be as safe as the 9/11 trust fund still is

In my view 10% of this fund will actually go to help the people its meant to. The rest will end up in the treasury for whatever the President and his friends in congress want to spend it on. Oh and it isn't the republicans you have to worry about, they are not in power.

Not if their Republican pawns keep apologizing.

yea.......soon Obama will create a disturbance somewhere else and people will forget all about the gulf coast, as soon as democrats stop using the media coverage for it for campaign purposes

It would be safer than Socialist Security, it they keep it away from Congress.

No the BP oil fund has a limited amount of funds given to it and those that oversee it will be distributing it according to the most politically advantageous responses not according to verified need. To give you an example the people of the USA needed far more bail outs and yet it is the big banks who received the big bail outs, and the Obama congress again just nixed giving in increase to extending unemployment.
