Why do the Republican's want to give my Social Security to the Stock Market?

[Old School MC]

So they can take what's left of it!!!

[FLSwampBoy]

So Brokers can make $million annual bonuses in coming years.

They don't. Stop lying.

[spirit_of_tom_joad]

Because the repubiCON Party is owned, lock, stock and barrel by the wealthiest 1%, Wall Street and big corporations.

I don't want to do anything with your money. That is entirely your business.
If you want to buy government bonds with your money then please do so and let me keep my money and do what ever I want with it.

[just me]

So they can finish busting the government.

They want America to be like all the other countries ........................ a almost non existent middle class, the lower class VERY LARGE and the rich, VERY RICH.

They have actually convinced their voters that the unions are socialist. Stupid. JUST STUPID!

[joemoser1948]

Not all Republicans want that, and several Democrats want that, also.

What they all REALLY want is to do away with Government-guaranteed retirement payments and move toward a participatory approach - the way that companies have done away with Retirement Programs and replaced them with 401Ks. It puts the risk on all the people, instead of just on taxpayers in future generations. They CARE about future generations and are not just concerned about OUR benefits.

i don't agree with Social Security at all or with playing whats left on the market but i would imagine they want to do it for 2 reasons 1 to try and boost the market back into full swing second to make a lot of it back after all SS has been the dip into bank for many many years guess what happens when you dip in but never put out it runs dry

If you had the least bit of knowledge (and it's apparent that you don't), you would know that in any 10 year period in the last century, including during the Great Depression or even during the current recession, the return you would get from investing in the stock market far outperforms the return you get with Socialist Security.

But, hey, why let facts or reality intrude on your leftist mythology?

[Old School MC]

Yep!!!
