Subject: RE: BS: *Strengthening* Social Security...
Yeah, I got that-

You got this? ITS NOT ABOUT YOU!

You were going on about deluded people who thought it was a "retirement account" and that's what I responded to.

I responded to your statement that its unreasonable for anyone not making $90K + per annum to take advantage of an IRA or a 401K- which was, and is, BS.

Your contention that the Democratic response that currently ignores my plight. They tell me that I should be putting aside for my own retirement is also disingenuous- absolutely ANY responsible financial advisor has been saying this for 50 years- it ain't something the Dems cooked up recently- and its TRUE, to boot.

As far as your contention that the Gov't. sends an annual statement as part of a conspiracy to hoodwink folks and that The proposal for private accounts is merely to suggest gradually building the kind of accounts that most people mistakenly believe that Social Security now is [HUNH??].................................

Well, never mind.
