Social Security
- Share via
It’s a wonderful plan to save Social Security that the GOP has proposed (April 29). Given the ability to invest in stocks from my new private account and the guarantee that current levels of Social Security payments will be maintained, I will now be able to buy all those high-flying Internet stocks with their huge price-to-earnings ratios and not have to worry about them crashing to earth. Any losses that I might suffer, the government will make up for me! Why don’t they extend that guarantee for all my stock trading?
