Bobert: No, of course I am not willing to give up my SS. Why should I? I earned it. That has nothing what-so-ever to do with the subject anyway.

Bush has made a positive suggestion for strengthening SS. What plan has the Democrats proposed?

It's well and good for Mudcatters to propose programs of their own but posting them on the Mudcat does little good. Send your suggestions to your favorite senator, Senator Byrd! Let him champion them in the Senate. If your ideas have merit, I'm sure the Senate will adopt them.

Expecting that any party other than either the Republicans or Democrats are going to do anything to improve SS is pure nonsense.
