Why should we trust people who promoted allowing people to invest thier social security in the stock market?

[serf]

I think, when it comes to my retirement, I should be able to invest my money however I want. It's not like I'm ever going to see a dime from SS.

[big E]

What about trusting the people that promoted the Fair Housing Act? Can you really say they are better.

[Julie S]

That one was a very poor idea. I would never trust that idea and I never did. Bush was promoting it. It did not pass thank goodness.

[Town Hall Junkies]

So give our retirement to the govt. who's already borrowed so much money against it that it's bankrupt!

Smart person you are!

[Angry mobster]

NO! They promoted people deciding for themselves what to do with their own money! WHo the hell are you or anyone else to say what you will allow or not allow people to do witrh their own property?

[Your Assistant]

Yeah, I wonder right now if that had been the case and that had passed what all the people who are elderly would be doing when their social security in private markets was drained. We would be back in 1935. That is what the republicans want.
No government.
I say, leave my country right wing. Leave MY country.

[Steven]

No they promoted privitization of social security, which would stop the government from borrowing our retirement money and leaving an IOU.

Good point.....I wouldn't trust them to manage the funds from a church bake sale....
