Information:
"Social Security WORKS for Everyone!
There is no crisis in Social Security. Scare tactics are being used to frighten the American people in an attempt to end Social Security.
Privatization is being pushed as a solution, when in fact, private accounts push Social Security over the edge.
The White House is following an ideological blue print that has been around for decades as the right-wing has been planning to end Social Security, in their own words, for six decades.
If privatization succeeds, the average retirement benefit would be cut by 45 percent.
There is a very wealthy coalition working now to end Social Security – because they would make tremendous financial gains with private accounts.
The people over 55 should not be lulled into believing that they are safe from this ax, which is being wielded against Social Security.
Because Social Security is much more than a retirement plan, widows and orphans and disabled workers will be in an economic free fall."
