First off I am a democrat (so I'm sure I'll get kicked off this site as soon as I post this) and I am in the younger age group. Bush's plan for SSI is merely a start. I'm sure that these polls are accurate because there is a lot of support for SSI to be over hauled. Unlike the majority of Americans, I understand how the financial world works, and how the government works. The government, collectively, is not responsible with money. The reason that SS is in trouble is because the government has used it as a slush fund and the only way to stop it move to 100% privatized SS.
