A petition against Social Security reform was circulated and signed by more than 150 student body presidents at colleges across the United States. They formed a coalition called "Students for a Secure Future", which is promoting turning Social Security into a giant welfare program. The AJC reports:
The statement from the student leaders says the best ways to address Social Security's shortfalls are "to examine the levels at which workers pay into the system, ensure that benefits remain at the current levels for the neediest recipients, and reassess the payout to others."Examining the levels at which workers pay into the system means that they will demand that the evil, hated, rich to pay more tax (most likely by removing the cap). And by reassessing the payout they will no doubt conclude that the evil, hated, rich don't need Social Security and should be prevented from receiving benefits.
Karl Marx would be proud.
