- Go to Bombastic Blowhards Blast Social Security.
They have already stole our MONEY
Look......the government over the past 40 years have already been stealing our Money. If the social security fund would have been left alone, it would be solvent today and in the future. I have not heard any BLOWHARD (or republican) talk about shit canning the SS system. The republicans seem to be the only ones who recognize that the system is failing and going broke. The democrats are the ones who keep scaring old people and telling them that the republicans want to take their checks. When Bush tried to talk about a social security fix in the past the dems blasted him for it. The plan .....and a similar plan put out by Fred Thompson takes 2% of the money the government collects from your check and passes it through to a investment retirement account for you, so you can have the benefit of private equity working for you. How does that not make sense. If everyone lost the money they had into the financial markets, that would mean the financial markets all went belly up, and none of our money would be worth a crap anyway! Everyone needs to open their eyes to this monumental problem, or we're all screwed...not just the poor!
Also.....just as you've never seen a minimum wage worker with an IRA,.......I've never seen a minimum wage worker provide a job to someone else.....Why does everyone bash the people and the system that provides them a place to work? It just doesn't make any sense!
It seems like everyone praises success, however secretly roots for failure. The people that bitch about big corporations must have no idea that their 401k is directly tied to the well being of those big corporations! Get a clue people!
