What would've happened to Social Security if Republicans privatized it like they wanted to under Bush?

[Shuthrower]

The party of "fiscal conservatism" should not be offering ways of privatizing retirement accounts or social security. The latest collapse of Wall Street banks should be more than enough evidence that they have no idea of what they are doing. Offering up "trickle down" theories and de-regulation as a way to stimulate the economy only stimulates the bottom lines of corporations, bankers and Wall Street CEO's, not working middle class families. The idea of making retirement accounts and social security vulnerable to market forces, clearly shows who their allegiance is to. Anyone that thinks the republican party is on your side when it comes to your money needs a lobotomy.
