Another generation that wants it both ways. But with advances in technology driven automation jobs for those who lack the skills required for the limited number of jobs remaining will be harder to come by and some see the older worker as a competitor for those jobs.  Privatization  of SS is dead for the time being  because of the same three issues....1. Management fees  2. Recession  3 Saving discipline. Would people have the discipline needed to raise a large enough principal to fund 100% their own retirement? A principal that starts at 1 million dollars.</blockquote>
