Btw, in the Social Security section, the last thing you want is
the government investing SS funds in the stock market because,
with such huge sums of money, they can easily manipulate stocks

from doing so in the first place.

Which is not privatizing SS.

Why say it's not 'privatizing' when no one said it was?

Clinton did. His response to proposals for privatization was to suggest
this, and he called it privatizing.

I would expect Democrats to repeat that error at some point.


It's nationalizing the stock maket.

No, but it could have similar results.

Nationalization, I.E. government ownership, is the 'communist' form of
socialism. State 'control' of private enterprise is the fascist form.

But it would be ownership.
