So totally bogus....the companies are taking away standard pensions and forcing us into 401K's. Wall Street takes the money and invests it, I would use that term loosely these days, pays themselves big bonuses and when the whole thing blows up then they demand a taxpayer bailout. And you want Social Security to be subject to that?

The intent of Social Security privatization was for the Wall Street fat cats to make even more money. Count me out I sold all of my stocks and my families stocks....
