U.S. Social Security
From SourceWatch
(Redirected from Social Security)
The U.S. Social Security system is administered by the U.S. Social Security Administration. It was without doubt one of the "hottest" topics under consideration in U.S. presidential election, 2004 for America's ever-growing aging population, particularly the Baby Boom generation.
In early 2005, the Bush administration began in earnest its campaign to achieve U.S. Social Security privatization.
