This seems like an opportunity to give some real comparisons between a private plan and Social Security, but only hypothetical numbers are given. That suggests to me the private plan must have killed Social Security in returns.
Now why can government employees OPT OUT of Social Security, but I, as a private citizen, cannot?!
I would happily let the government keep all the money they've taken from me and sign whatever stating that I can't draw SS when I retire if they would stop stealing from my paycheck.
Who can I harass in D.C. to let me do that?
