Currently Social Security funds are not in "risk involved" investments. To privatize social security would put them there. The private sector lost nearly half their investments when Wall Street crashed. Thank goodness that wasn't their Social Security funds, privatized by Bush.

I started a thread to ask a few simple questions about the views of the boards participants (democrats in particular) on the strategy employed now by the Democrats and whether you are comfortable with party leadership which now considers Obama to be center-right?
I have not even seen one attempt to answer those questions.
I asked JMS if he thought that mutual funds (and in turn those who are invested in them) benefitted from the dotcom bubble.
He failed to answer and wants to move the conversation to the fees chargedd by funds.
But I am the person who is avoiding topics or creating "strawmen"?
So it is ok to make a blanket statement that Wall Street cost the average investor 30-40% but I have to break financial sectors down?
And who talked about SS finds other than you?
