Mike McMahon on Social Security

 


Privatized investment accounts are simply unacceptable

Replacing our current Social Security system with privatized investment accounts is simply unacceptable, and I strongly oppose it. While I support plans to provide people with greater incentives to save money, such as through changing our tax policies, these must be in addition to our current Social Security system, not in lieu of it. It is too risky to make the lives of 3 million of our friends and neighbors dependent entirely on the whims of the stock market.
