Grow up. Your ideology must be tempered with reality. SS is not going away now or in any forseable future no matter what you think of it. Yes, much of it is income redistribution, but the people as a whole think it is just grand. It's the 10,000 pound elephant in domestic politics and if you want politicians to just say they want to end it, you are supporting losers. If you really want to change it, it has to be done incrementally and partial privatization is the first step in doing that.
Sorry if reality does not meet your ideological purity standard, but it is reality none-the-less. Just grow up and get used to it and quit savaging people on your side of the fence.
