Actually, they are setting it up to blame the Republicans.

Here is how it is planned. Unemployed who can't find work and are over 55 1/2 are applying for Social Security in droves.

Obama has Social Security Payroll taxes reduced from 6.2 to 4.2%.

Result: A Manufactured crisis to pin on the Republicans.

Just wait and see.

Republicans need to remind everyone in America that UNIONS are the anchor dragging the American economy and THAT OBAMA is FULLY ENGAGED IN SUPPLYING THOSE UNIONS WITH EVERY SECTOR HE CAN TAKE OVER...This is one area that NEEDS to just be HAMMERED in every commercial, every campaign, etc. Don’t let OBUMMER slide on his bedroom coziness with every union thug out there!

Privatizing Social Security means its in an account that the politicians can’t steal.

Leaving it as it is means its already stolen. Its a ponzi, and normal people go to jail for stuff like this. Ask Madoff.

Repubs just have to make the point very clear to people who depend on Social Security, which is most people, that its already been stolen.

"“They want to privatize Social Security,” Schumer said of Republicans. “Privatize equals end, no more.”

That limp-wristed squeaker has no bounds to his idiocy.

Seems to me that EVERYTHING the Gubmint touches turns to shit, and he won't admit that taking the money and handing it out to government-dole-parasites and those who funnel money into the DNC (AKA: Unions) has bankrupted this genration and those to follow, with debt up the ass.

Take on the argument on the issue, and point out the FAILURES of 6 years of Democrat Congress, piling up the debt and buying voters.....

This crap MUST end, and cutting expenditures and taking the Gubmint OUT of our lives is the ONLY way out.

Yup... Its like a fat man asking for an extra helping of steak and potato when he should be on a diet! That’s the Democrats’ notion of Social Security “reform.”

It’s worked before. I see nothing from the Repubs to counter such lies... again.

Sanders said the trust fund is similar to businesses that take out loans from time to time to cover short-term costs but are fiscally sound over the long term.

Perhaps the funniest statement I've ever heard!

A debt is still a debt... Sanders hasn’t taken an accounting class. Its like Enron counting liabilities as assets.

If Sanders tried that in the real world, he’d be carted off to prison!

“They want to privatize Social Security,” Schumer said of Republicans. “Privatize equals end, no more.”

“Their agenda: Privatize both programs, which means end them,” said Schumer.

Hey Chucky:

"Ryan called for letting workers under the age of 55 invest a third of their Social Security taxes into personal retirement accounts."

Chucky, do you understand the word, "letting?"
