Please call, write, email, or visit your Senators and Representatives to let them know that we can’t afford to “fix” Social Security again. Private accounts are essential.
Private accounts will actually drive the system into crisis faster, since the government depends on today's SS tax receipts to pay the obligations it incurred decades ago and has to shell out dollars for now. If that flow of dollars goes into accounts that can't be raided to pay today's pensioners, the system will go bankrupt in no time.
What's up with the Ryan-Sununu plan? Has King George endorsed it?
