President Bush said tonight that Social Security should be adjusted so that benefits for people with lower incomes would grow faster than for those who were more affluent.

Unconstitutional redistribution of wealth, pure and simple.

Please, let's reward the underachievers more than the achievers.

Let's just END socialist security, Mr. President.

Color me disgusted...

how? how do you "end it"? stop sending checks to current retirees? tell people who are just a few years away from retirement - sorry, you lose everything you've put in.

there is no way to "end it". you put the private accounts out there and give young people, the new entrants to the ponzi scheme, a way to transition out.

look, I am skeptical about this too - but let's see what happens, if it starts going the wrong way, we'll know.

You wouldn't like any suggestion the President made no matter what it was.

I agree with you.

Once again, those who work their behinds off, think ahead about their retirement, save and invest routinely, "do without" from time to time, and comport their lives in a responsible manner will only see their money confiscated from them by big government so that it may be handed over to society's bums, losers, parasites, and other Democrats.

No thanks, President Bush.
