Dem's New Social Security "Plan"

Captain Ed at Captain's Quarters reports that The Washington Post has a story on the Dem's new Social Security plan which does not appear to be much of a plan at all.

The The Washington Post story can be read here.

Captain writes, "The Democrats have taken a lot of criticism for talking about the coming crisis in Social Security financing for a decade before Bush came to office, and then suddenly pretending it didn't exist. When Bush presented his plans to reform Social Security, they tried to convince people that reform was unnecessary, which no one believes, and then deliberately decided to offer no alternative, which no one appreciated. Now they attempt to offer "retirement security" by focusing on the money the government doesn't confiscate without addressing the funds that it does."

Denial. Smoke and mirrors. Deception. That's our plan, man. Now go out and vote for us, 'cause we are looking out for you ... the little guy.

Barf bag, please.
