Save Social Security-March on Washington

At times of national crisis and decision a national mobilization has been necessary. The reckless Bush administration is provoking a crisis by beginning the process of dismantling the social security system. It is still a very successful system of social insurance and guaranteed income security for the retiree, the disabled, the widow and the orphan. (Remember that one in three soc. sec. payments go to non-retirees.) The Bush goal is to change it to a 401 K with no income guarantee. They will have to borrow 2 trillion dollars to effect this transition, placing our currency in danger of an international collapse and making our national debt completely impossible, assuming they can even get anyone to buy bonds in dollars any more. Now it the time to mobilize by planning a massive march on Washington by a coalition of Americans of all parties, income and ethnic and regional groups. Through the internet we can begin to talk this up. We are getting no leadership at all from the dem party right now on this issue. They are hemming and hawing and saying "well, let's wait and see." it will soon be too late. And the media is just repeating the Bush lies on this, the same way they did Iraq. What say you?
