If Social Security Had Been In Private Accounts The Stock Market Drop Could Have Been A Disaster

Putting bankers in charge is not the answer.

Well, THAT is my point also.....Would you rather placing in charge of retirement funds to casino owners?

Your complaint about Glass-Steagall is that it reduced government control, moron.

Wiggle all you want........LOL

You realize that with every post where you seem to think you are somehow 'zinging' others, you are actually making yourself look unbelievably stupid.

He just pointed out the stupidity of your claim, and your response was "wiggle all you want..... LOL"

What are you laughing at? Him making your argument look dumb.... or you making yourself look even dumber?

It's ironic that you call the others you argue with IDIOTS when you demonstrate you are clearly in that class.

There are almost an infinite number of options to improving social security.

Leaving it along would be a big mistake.

That does not follow. You are again, failing to make a point. We're not putting our money in a casino either.

Investing is not gambling. The vast majority of all millionaires in this country have most of their money in investments. That wouldn't be possible if investing was gambling.

The far left wing meme continues.......

They never grow tired of repeating it.

You could have just as well responded with...."I have no clue what you're talking about since I learn all I need to know about world finances from Sean Hannity...." LOL

Even investment advisors push people out of equities as they near retirement.

If you have some to lose, you invest. It would be your second tier.

The stock market does bring some forms of risk. Everyone should be willing to acknowledge that.

Can you kindly point out to all WHERE and WHEN I stated that I'm AGAINST "options to improving SS" ?????

Thnaks

Sean who ?

How would I have a clue about what you are talking about when it is clear you don't know what you are talking about ?

Post #184.

You stated "leave Social Security alone".

I can hear the backpeddling already.

The "compromise" my dear right wingers is staring you in your delusional face.......Gamble away with the stock market all you want (the economy and Wall Street bankers need idiots like you to keep up their life style)....but leave SS alone and raise the ceiling of contributions beyond the current $117K.

Looting me even more is a "compromise?"

Notice that there is no willingness to knock people off the system who should not be there.

Also, our politicians seem to know there is lot's of fraud, but are unwilling to take it on.

The left is all to willing to call that money "sacred" but they behave as if they have no accountability for the funds.

Welcome to democracy dude.

"who shouldn't be there"..... everyone who pays in... should be there. Everyone here gets a vote.

This right here, is what I'm talking about. Leftist think somehow we should live in a mythical world, where I get up at 3 AM, and work 12 hours a day, to pay into a system that I get zero benefit from.... because I "shouldn't be there".

Sorry.... screw you... If I'm paying in, I get something out. You don't like it... too bad. I have a vote to. Sucks to be you. Rich people get a vote.

See this is why leftist always turn into tyrants. You end up with Hugo Chavez, and militia groups roaming the streets of Venezuela. Because Socialism doesn't work without Coercion. Then all the people with money or businesses, pack up their wealth, and leave the country. You then scream about food shortages, and power outages, and the country is in decline.

You want to kick people out of social security that you deem 'shouldn't be there'... good luck with that. It'll never happen. People won't pay into a system that they don't get benefits from. And everyone has a vote. So you'll just have to form a dictatorship if you want to try that.

Otherwise, that's never going to happen.

True, I forgot that investment advisors are all kind-hearted, altruistic, do-gooders who would gladly forgo their percentage for the benefit and welfare of retirees.

You mean there is no one there collecting who hasn't paid in ?

If you can't really understand what I meant by that......you're really too dumb to debate...Ask a grown-up to explain it to you.

The one does not follow the other. But it is clear you are still running on stupid.

Investment advisors make their money selling other products to people.

There are entire "wealth preservation" funds you can join (provided you've got 500K to start) where the goals to get some gains, but protect the capital. You pay to join those too.

Conventional wisdon says you don't put your money in stocks just before you retire. If you need an advisor to tell you that....then maybe you really are as stupid as you post.

You're right....I should be laughing at BOTH you nitwits....My apologies.

Awwwww......

Busted.

Your words just sunk your sorry ass.

You asked, I showed....and now you start twisting to avoid it.

Before you rejoice in your [half]wit.....THINK !!!! All I stated is for you jerkoffs to leave social security alone......now if THAT means to you and the other cadre of morons that SS could NOT be improved, then you should sue the junior high school that allowed you to graduate.

 

[Where_r_my_Keys]

Privatization could also mean personalization.

Which would go from a defined benefit to a defined contribution.

You should keep a base amount with the government (and it should be treated like a bank deposit) and have options beyond the minimum. When you pass away, your balance would pass down to your heirs.

There are plenty of ways to improve it.

The far left (not liberals...we look for better ways) fills it's collective diaper everytime anyone suggests a change to social security.

To place any money with the Federal Government, is to burn it.

 

[nat4900]

You know, right wingers......its late in my time zone and even a cat gets tired of playing with dead mice......But, keep investing the in the stock market......we NEED idiots to blow their money so that Lear jets' sales stay high for Wall Street bankers.
