Monday morning (June 20) meeting to discuss the effects of privatizing social security

NA Confidential was forwarded this information by a friend, and although we'll be out of town and unable to attend, some readers may be interested.

On Monday, June 20th at 10:00 a.m. at the New Albany Public Library there will me a meeting to discuss Social Security and the impact privatizing it will have on rural communities (Indiana's 9th district is considered rural).

The main speakers with be US Representatives Bob Ethridge (D-NC) and Marrion Berry (D-AR).

I know it may be difficult for some of you to be there, but please spread the word to anyone who may be interested in coming out and joining in the conversation.

why isnt our congressamn Mike Sodrel going to be there?

Will the words "means testing" or the phrase "Roosevelt rolling in his grave" even come up?

Is it worth attending just to prove that, of course, they won't?

Will there be anything but the most casual of mentionings that there are already a gazillion ways that a young person an "privately" save for his future?

** re. Con. Sodrel's attendance... I think he has a time conflict, keeping a luncheon date with NA CM Coffey to go over new ways to butcher the English language.

maybe Valla Ann can fill in for Sodrel since she seems to be the national republican cheerleader for New Albany
