Social Security is a social insurance program - it is not designed to be the same thing as a 401(k).

Social Security is not just another government spending program. It is a promise from generation to generation.

In other words, Social Security is every bit as insecure as the stock market.

Well, let's go back to the original intent of Social Security. It is an insurance contract.

Social Security is a tax.

Social Security is not just the foundation of America's retirement dignity and security, it ensures the economic stability and strength of our families and our state's economy.

Social Security is a plan that actually was designed in a much different time, in a different era, and with a different set of American demographics in mind.

Social Security is not a retirement savings plan; it is a social insurance program. It's a contract that says, as a society, we will look out for you and your family when you can no longer work.

What's lost in this whole debate, unfortunately, is that Social Security is not a giveaway where we take money to give to other people. It's a contract with the government... that's worked for 75 years. It's the most successful government program that we've ever had.

Social Security is not broke, and Social Security does not need to be privatized.
