Eric Massa on Social Security

 


Privatizing gambles your retirement on Wall Street

Social Security is a sacred promise which we must keep. In 2005, the Bush Administration tried to gamble your retirement on Wall Street by privatizing Social Security. Fortunately, their plan failed and your retirement didn’t go down the tubes with Bear Stearns. America won the first round against President Bush’s plan to bet our seniors financial well being on the stock exchange, but they will surely try again. I promise to protect Social Security when I am elected to Congress.
