Staten Island Congressman Vito Fossella (R) tries to bamboozle constituents spinning <$NoAd$> them with the same old ‘privatization’ word games.
From today’s Staten Island Advance …
Rep. Vito Fossella told senior citizens at the New Dorp Beach Friendship Club yesterday that he is against privatizing Social Security.
“Let me be clear,” Fossella (R-Staten Island/Brooklyn) told over 130 seniors at the center. “I do not support the privatization of Social Security, I never have and I never will.”
However, Fossella said he wouldn’t rule out “exploring” with House lawmakers the concept of allowing young workers to set aside part of their payroll taxes into personal market accounts instead of contributing the money to the Social Security system.
