Who really wants your money?

The radio played a statement by Sen. Tom Harkin where he said, “Republicans always want to privatize Social Security because Wall Street would love to get their hands on all that money.”

This comes from the same man who held a recess (everyone was out of town) hearing in Washington, D.C., on Oct. 7 to discuss how to force all Americans to surrender their 401(k) savings plus an additional 5 percent payroll tax. This in exchange for a Guaranteed Retirement Account (GRA).

The stolen funds (trillions of dollars) could then be used to support underfunded union pension funds and pay for Obamacare.

Remember when FDR forced all Americans to surrender their gold? We should all be asking Harkin and Bruce Braley who really wants to get their hands on all that money.
