Here's your libertarian bunch...you know, the middle part of republicolibertarianazi....and their position on it.
Quote:Replace the Social Security system with a private system
Retirement planning is the responsibility of the individual, not the government. We favor replacing the current government-sponsored Social Security system with a private voluntary system. The proper source of help for the poor is the voluntary efforts of private groups and individuals.

Privatize Social Security
We favor replacing the current fraudulent, virtually bankrupt, government sponsored Social Security system with a private voluntary system. Pending that replacement, participation in Social Security should be made voluntary. Victims of the Social Security tax should have a claim against government property.

Yeah...great fucking idea. Let's give all the money to the same bunch of greedy cocksuckers who damn near ruined the economy so they can "invest" it in the stock market....and get a cut out of "managing" the funds!
