Josh Marshall at TPM has an excellent post on the lies surrounding "Social Security Privatization" and what we can do about it.
It should be required reading.
The Republicans are poised to act, and they are determined to win this one. Josh outlines a way we can approach this issue as a rallying point, to unite as an effective opposition party, and perhaps even upset their plan. It deserves a hearing, because whether or not we agree about changing the current program, it is about to happen, and we may not be able to prevent it.
But the Republican plan cannot work.
