Privatization of social security is Mr. bush's way of repaying his corporate donors in the financial sector, just the way the "medicare prescription" bill was a repayment to his wealthy donors in the pharmaceutical industry. ENOUGH of these repub policies of making the rich richer and the poor poorer!
Wall Street and the investment companies do not need the piddling amount of money each average person contributes to Social Security. This is the reason that privatizing Social Security is such a scam to deceive the American worker and the American public in general. The piddling amounts of each average individual will not purchase any stock in market worth any monetary value for anyone's future. Please look to the future and protect our now-working Social Security by voting against privitazation.
hasn't bush screwed up enough things already? unnecessary/unprovoked wars, a decimated economy, deprivation of constitutioinal rights. do we really want to let him tell anyone how to fix anything let alone something as fundamentally strong as soc security?
The American worker is facing tough times.
The administration gave the top 10% of Americans a BIG, BIG raise with the Bush tax cuts.
Time to give the working Man / Women a break.

W has messed up everything he had been involved in and he's destroying all that is good about America. A person in office because of fraud should be removed before they can cause any more destruction. It is time for Americans to have an honest and verifiable revote before congress can vote on or W can sign any law.
Keep your promise George. Not a month ago you said YOU WOULD NOT PRIVATIZE SOCIAL SECURITY. At least allow the ink to dry on your promises before you break them.
It's high time that Congress move to make the economy work for the majority of Americans and not just the wealthy few. The measures proposed in this petition will do that.
Throwing the elderly into poverty under the guise of helping the elderly and at the same time providing a windfall of commissions to wall street is an example of greed with no limit.
This Social Security privatization gimick is such an obvious scam, yet another one of Bush's phoney set-ups to further erode America as we know it. Don't lend it any support!
SS privatization is pushed by Bush only to bankrupt the SS and Medicare systems. It is not possible to continue paying benefits to the already retired and soon to retire without continuing to add funds to the system.
Let's start to represent the people of the US instead of thinking of yourself and your pocket book. Stop the privatization of social security; update the minimum wage and help the seniors afford medications and health care. We are struggling in the US and it will only get worse if these new items are forgotten.
Many Americans are very aware of the shell game that republican politicians are trying to pull. They want to steal from the elderly to make those in the financial industry wealthier.
It is time to stop big money from running this country. GW Bush can keep his finger off the ss fund . They want to rip off the american people more than they have already .
