[QUOTE]Originally posted by glassman: [QB] [b]At one point, the president himself claimed that Republican leaders were as eager to "privatize" Social Security as they were to repeal his health care law, which isn’t true. [/b] that's a flat out LIE! or, gee i must have been hallucinating when i heard them say it on Fox news any number of times in the last 6 months... the only question is who you call a Republican Leaders. i have heard any number of GOP elected officials and pundits still calling for privatization to this day.. this took me two minutes to find cut and paste: straight from one horses mouth: [b]ndividuals 55 and older will remain in the current system and will not be affected by this proposal in any way: they will receive the benefits they have been promised, and have planned for, during their working years. All other workers will have a choice to stay in the current system or begin contributing to personal accounts. Those who choose the personal account option will have the opportunity to begin investing a significant portion of their payroll taxes into a series of funds managed by the U.S. government. The system would closely resemble the investment options available to Members of Congress and Federal employees through the Thrift Savings Plan [TSP]. As these personal accounts continue to accumulate wealth, they will eventually replace the funding that comes through the government’s pay-as-you-go system. This will reduce the demand on government spending, lead to a larger overall benefit for retired workers, and restore solvency to the Social Security Program.
