Social Security Works @socialsecurityworks.org

Social Security is a simple, universal program that is part of the fabric of American life, connecting all of us, and guaranteeing a life of dignity for everyone. And Wall Street would kill to privatize it.

Notes from ME @notesfromme.bsky.social

Because they would love to turn those huge sums of money into funds that they can 'win or lose' on the stock market ... all while taking a fee every month for "administration" of "your" money. And what happens if the market crashes again? I lost my 401K in 2008. I have nothing but SS. What then?

They should already have the funds in interest bearing accounts with the interest going to the taxpayer. Take, take, take.

Would you trust any bank to manage your guaranteed funds? I don't. And, I haven't used a profit-making bank most of my life. Only when I had no other options.

You are undermining your ideas by falsely saying "guaranteeing a life of dignity for everyone." Millions are struggling to survive on SS. Where's the dignity in that? Just drop the word dignity. We all know it's not true.
