And major Wall Street campaign contributors, who tear their hair in despair when denied their unfair share.

Right, we can't do anything that would enable those bald-headed tuxedo-wearing cigar-chomping right-wing rich people to earn money (for a service provided).

That would.... make me green with class envy.

Oh, so now Social Security is a natural phenomenon, like rain, or gravity. And its very existence has nothing to do with Wall Street misdeeds.

And anyhow, "the old economic rules don't apply anymore"-- the Dow just goes up, up, up forever! ISo let's all listen to economic wiz George W Bush and give our retirement money to brokers who truly care... we'll all have bedpans made of solid gold!

Rich Uncle, that was a masterpiece, even by your lofty standards. I counted seven straw man arguments, in just a handful of sentences.
You could be a pro.
