Privatize social security. It's an insult in the first place--do liberals think we should be allowed to gamble even though it endangers our financial well-being, but not decide how to invest (or not invest) our own money?

The preamble is just a statement of intent. It isn't a legal provision of its own...it's just saying, 'the text bellow will provide for the general welfare.'

I don't even see the point to making them optional. Just honor all the payments people have already made, and future generations can do what they want.

Alright, I changed my mind.
