AS, do you have any business/finance/economics background at all? If not, then I think you may be speaking from ignorance. It's not voodoo economics. It's Econ 101. The gov't gets you an avg 2% return on your social security money. Any moron can get a 5% risk free rate of return. Why would you prefer the gov't handling your money? And btw, it has nothing to do with shifting wealth from middleclass to the rich. It has to do with giving you greater control over your own money.
