Well he didn't privatize it. He appointed a commission to fix it. Then when the Commission came back with suggestions he didn't balk, but implemented those ideas and made SS work. And again I say - Obama put the first nail in the coffin of SS when he reduced funding. One of his most stupid ideas. ..........The devastation to SS was the roaring/climbing inflation. Inflation was high and kept going higher all through Carters administration. To give Carter credit for fixing inflation is ludicrous. Show me where he campaigned to privatize SS - I back my stuff up with facts.
