Oh, no. When Alan Keyes called her a selfish hedonist, there was no problem. It was only Kerry who wasn't allowed to mention her.

How well could you do if you were given control over your own Social Security money?

Reliability on Social Security income is not enough to suffice an average two person retirement income....Anyone so naive who chooses to rely on something so obviously unstable deserves what they get! Why should the rest of us have to pay unilaterally for the mistakes of the few?

OH...I see how this is going to work!
Everyone invests their SS money in relatively safe accounts, like a 401k type fund. Then, the market goes South again in a big way, and all that SS money bleeds out of people's individual accounts and into the pockets of the already rich, right? Sweet. I'm somewhat skeptical of this deal since I had $15,000.00 in a 401k, *very* conservatively invested, that got turned into $6,000.00 thanks to the dotcom bust. Yeah, I'm sure Dubya's supporters are salivating at the thought of getting their hands on all that cash somehow.

But Els, how far away from retiring are you? Unless it's in the next few years, you shouldn't worry--the market will go up again (and down again, and up again...)
