Social security privatization.
Once again the REPUBLIKLAN Party plans top terrorize elderly, disabled people this year promising if they hold the house and senate that they will attempt to privatize social security in 2007.


Tell your local Democratic House candidate to bring this up in the campaign and hit the Republican hard and often with this issue.

1. Tom Kean, Jr. is backing Social Security privatization
As per his website. But he's being very careful not to bring the issue up in his public appearances.

2. Absolutely! Shrub even said it would be his #1 priority next year!
The public has rejected the plan several times already, and getting a Dem majority is the ONLY sure way to put it permanently to death!

3. The public be damned
In Bush's America, only artificial persons count.

4. Social Security is NOT BROKEN!
This is the issue that we can't let the evil bastards get away with!

Perhaps your title should read instead:

SOCIAL SECURITY PRIVITIZATION?! HELL NO!

There should be as much discussion of this topic as there was about the Path to 911 the past week!!!

:grr:

5. Repubs and George are really stupid. Why would they blast this?
It should be their top secret. How many of us are going to support giving their money to corporations? U. S. citizens have collective memory holes?

6. I'm not old enough to be safe from the bushes stealing my SS
The bushes are just dying to start another bubble by turning over the SS funds to Wall Street. The middle class supports the elite CEOs and corporations while their bought and paid for politicians take every safety net away from us. I'm tired of Welfare for the ubber rich let's have a revolution.
