No Steve, SS is multi-party because it's tied to the federal budget, despite your strawman argument. Please tell me one Republican politician that wants to "defund" Social Security? The silly partisan statements you make up and pretend are the truth fill SI. What some Republican poliltiicans want is to is reform the system and build a better model. One that takes advantage of market forces, and places more responsibility with the individual and less with government politicians who have driven it in the toilet. Why in Gawd's green earth you believe the best people to manage your money are a bunch of faceless bureaucrats in D.C mystifies me? Heck, at the age of 52 now I would voluntarily opt out of the system if given the opportunity to invest 15% of my income for the next 15 years, instead of handing it over to a bunch of incompetent government boobs. The disability fraud alone makes Enron books look stellar in comparison The faith in politicians you have and desire to turn over more and more of your assets to them astounds me!
