This is "getting real"?

... The reasons the
Republicans are for this is 1) They believe it will benefit the public,

And you want to call other people "politically naive?"


2) It robs the democrats of money they need to buy their power base.

You forgot 3- increases campaign contribution to favored Republican
pockets.


... It
shrinks the size of the federal budget.


Ya think so? Gee, I guess you know more about it than Greenspan, who
said it would increase spending and contribute to larger deficit(s).

Okay for your education, there is NO SS money that hasn't been spent, there
is NONE that is sitting in an account waiting for your retirement. The
Federal government has already spent it. If the Federal government isn't
allowed to spend, say 20% of the money coming in for SS and it's deposited
in a 401K type account in your name that money can't be spent and somewhere
the federal budget has to be reduced because the money is not available to
be spent.

That's why the democrats who are "the deficit spenders" are against ANY plan
that calls for PRIVATE accounts.
