Disrespecting the president by referring to him as "Jorge" is a personal insult to me and every other member of this forum that supports him and I see it as a disruptive tactic of a common DU troll. When you post like a DU troll, don't be surprised when you get banned like a DU troll.

You should have seen his post that was deleted in another thread. Very disrespectful.

Just roll whatever amount of money workers up to the age of 50 have contributed into SS into a private IRA or 401(k) plan and repeal the payroll tax.

Do that, but keep the tax, but have it go directly into 401(K) accounts, by-passing the treasury and congress altogether.

Which is what SS should have been when it was adopted rather than the ponzi scheme we have now.

The best solution for Socialist Security is to dismantle the whole thing. It's a fraudulent Ponzi scheme. Everyone should have the option of receiving a lump sum payment now. This would be the total of all employee and employer contributions plus interest since inception. Younger workers, those under 50, would most likely take the lump sum. Older workers and those already receiving benefits can stay in if they want, or take a lump sum, adjusted as needed for benefits already paid out. Stop all new participants and taxes now. In about 20 to 30 years it would die of natural causes. This whole process would add hundreds of billions of dollars to private capital markets, creating an economic boom and prosperity, the likes of which we have never seen.

Here's thought. Get someone to figure out how much money the average American would have made/saved under the original Bush plan five years ago vs. what was made under the current plan. I've love to see the diffence. I bet it would make a great point.

I'd take that, but we'd have to raise tax revenue elsewhere to pay for the benefits for current recipients.

No need to.

Economic growth would fuel it.

Most likely. That's why I chose the term "revenue" rather than "rates".
