Article here:
CORALVILLE, Ia. Voters should pay attention when Republicans suggest privatizing Social Security and Medicare, because they mean it, Hillary Clinton warned here Tuesday.
Its a terrible idea. Talk about giveaways to Wall Street this would be the biggest giveaway ever, she said. Its a terrible idea, but it keeps being raised.
Clinton, who is the leading candidate for the Democratic nomination for president, warned that if Republicans capture the White House and retain control of Congress, they could act on the idea. If Social Security was transformed into a system with private accounts, she said, recipients would not be able to plan their retirements as well, because they couldnt be sure how much their benefits would be.
She noted that President George W. Bush tried to pass such a plan when she was serving as a U.S. senator. She said she and other Democrats blocked it then, but she said the public must stand ready to knock the idea down again.
