How much would be in your private Social Security account in today's market if McCain's plan to privatize Social Security was up and running?


Under McCain's plan ~ just like George Bush's proposal ~ we Americans would have private Social Security accounts.

Yes, that would be a very bad idea indeed.

I am against privatizing this program for obvious reasons.


There are various ways it can be revitalized and politician need to start looking at ways right now.

All I know is my 80 yr. old MIL, lost $40,000 in one month since this all happened. I do not want my life savings in this stock market!

My only solace if McCain is elected is that the Congress right now has a Democratic majority.

I was not surprised to learn my own mother hadn't put her life savings into conservative investments as I have been asking her to do forever.

Is that the recent McCain flip flop?

according to the factcheck the allegations by the Obama camp were always wrong ... so I don't see your point with posting the article.
