we need to privatize Social Security, my friends

[BluesLegend]

we can shore up the program and end the raid on the trust fund. we can create an ownership society and individuals can own a piece of the action!

This is what Democrats cheered about when Bush said he had to give up on privatizing SS.
Social Security is being pilfered by Congress.
Most of our money is added to the debt every year....Obama stole trillions from the fund.
Eventually they will tell us that all of that cash is just gone and we need to forget about it.

ODS rears its stupid, uninformed head again...

Uh.....just because a previous president borrowed from it, does that excuse taking trillions from the fund???

Well, in the mind of a Democrat,.....yes it does.

And your link says Obama used every penny to pay benefits.....but it forgets to say who's benefits it paid. How much went to paying union benefits, refugee benefits, illegal immigrant's benefits?
And where did Obama get $32 billion to send to Iran???

Don't forget, Obama also raided Medicare to fund Obamacare.

How do you privatize social security and still pay benefits to those already in the system?

While you're searching for your link to prove obama stole trillions why don't you search all the presidents back that stole from there.

From what I understand Obama was the first to take from the fund. Before it was Congress that was doing it. Obama was the first to steal $750 billion from SS to pay for Obamacare.

As evidenced by the market decline and the lost year to investors.

If you base your friendships on who wants SS privatized, you won't have many friends.

I’d rather have a small group of friends and acquaintances who agree with me than a large group of them who I can’t trust.

SS has worked well for decades. The only issues are it being underfunded by GOP Congresses. We need to increase SS taxes on the wealthy by lifting the income cap significantly. As a generational wealth transfer program, it's a smashing success, and very popular with the voters, especially the old, white conservatives who support Trump while spooging off the taxpayers with SS and Medicare, all while deluding themselves into thinking that they are not socialist programs.

In what way is paying into Social Security all of your life and then collecting benefits when you retire SPONGING off of the taxpayers???? I've paid into it since 1972. And now that I'm old enough to collect you say I'm a leech.

He restructured payments to providers

Wise move

Privatizing means that the business is managed by an entity whose job it is to turn a profit. Who would that entity be and how would this new system be of a benefit to our citizens?

You are sponging off current workers just like those before you did the same.

Still a socialist program that has saved hundreds of millions from poverty in their retirement

Remember 2008 my friends.

Chile privatised their Social Security and it was an unmitigated disaster

 

[Rustic]

How about just getting rid of all socialist entitlement programs....

Actually if you know anything about the market, you'd realize that every time the Fed threatens to raise interest rates you get a selloff. Also, it doesn't help that Mad Maxine is going to be taking over banking in Congress.
That would scare the piss out of lots of investors.

Which are?

Social Security

Medicare

Medicaid

Good luck with that

 

[rightwinger]

Keep SS as it is and just make some adjustments

If you want privatized. Just get a 401k

As a Sociaoprogram it runs totally contrary to everything this country was founded on, regardless of how many people it has helped. That is not the job of the Federal Government, even if you’ve paid into the program.

That’s why we got my wife off SSDI when we married and why I will never take money from the SS Administration.

Since you seem to want to defend Obama robbing SS by telling us others did the same, how about you do your own fricken research, for a change.

Since you think you are so sure of yourself fucking prove it boy. You know I read these posts from trumpturds that tell me they have a college education, where the fuck you get it out of a cracker jack box. What a losing follower.

tRump University!

You are free to make all the stupid decisions you want.

Just don't fuck with MY retirement or my kid's
