In Flroida - Kerry calls Bush Social Security ideas "a rip-off"
snip

Bush favors allowing young workers to create voluntary personal savings accounts with some of the money they now pay into the Social Security system, a change he insists will not increase payroll taxes or change benefits for retirees or near retirees.

Kerry, however, contended that diverting money from Social Security to private accounts was a "bad, old idea."


"That's not a plan, it's a rip-off," he said. "George Bush's scheme hurts seniors by cutting benefits, and it hurts our economy by increasing the deficit."
