President Bush is showing his socialist bent, again.
I don't like it.

I noticed that too. Canada's Pension Plan is more what the President is suggesting. Our system is more of a welfare system. The lowest amount is $250 and highest is $750 per month. A person can have worked one day in their entire life and still get $250.0. And then, since they will be poor on retirement get a supplement. The most anyone would ever get is $750, even if they grossed $100,000 per year

I didn't care for it either but then I realized that if personal accounts exist this will serve to drive people out of the system since they will see that they will be even less likely to get anything from it.  I think crushkerry is implying this.

Right.

Saving Social Security is Socialist. Why should the poor working slobs get any money for Retirement. It was already stolen by the fat cats and Heqq if they will get it back.

You make us all look bad.

Social Security has always been a welfare program. But it is far to popular to do away with it. Thus it must be fixed. I would think a rich guy like you would understand the value of investing money. But then I would be forgetting that you only care about the Rich and to Heqq with the poor. Let them die a slow painful death of starvation or disease. Far be it any of my taxes go to help them out.

The rest of us realize that if you don't treat the bottom 90% with at least some decency sooner or latter they will rebel and take all the top 10% has. They will then put them in prison. A La the Robber Barons and IBM.
