Gloria La Riva on Social Security

Party for Socialism and Liberation nominee for President


No privatization of Social Security

No privatization: Social Security--a vital benefit for tens of millions of retired and disabled workers--has come under increasing attack in recent years. Bush tried to privatize Social Security in order to funnel trillions of additional dollars to the big capitalist banks and investors. The PSL organized against this assault on the working-class in 2005.

Despite the crying need, Democratic and Republican politicians only debate how much to cut back from Social Security and how fast to do it.
