"It's hard to remember now, but before Social
Security, nearly half of America's seniors
lived in poverty. After a lifetime of
playing by the rules and working hard, there
was no guarantee of a secure retirement.
"My grandfather, Franklin Delano Roosevelt
and a majority of Americans thought that was
wrong.
"They believed that lifting our seniors out
of poverty is a reflection of our nation's
core values.
"That's why my grandfather signed the Social
Security act seventy three years ago today.
One of the great successes of the 20th
Century, today Social Security lifts nearly
13 million seniors and 1.3 million children
out of poverty.
"Back in 1935, a small minority did not share
those values. They opposed the creation of
Social Security because they believed that
government should not have a role in ensuring
a retirement with dignity or helping seniors
stay out of poverty. They said, "You're on
your own".
"John McCain agrees with that old way of
thinking. Like President Bush, he wants to
privatize our Social Security, turning it
into a gamble with our futures, and making
8.6 million American seniors vulnerable to
poverty. John McCain has even said Social
Security is "a disgrace".
"I couldn't disagree more.
"Our Social Security isn't a disgrace; it's a
compact, a trust between generations of
Americans. It's a reflection of our values.
"On the 70th anniversary of Social Security,
Americans stood together and said no to
George Bush's attempt to privatize Social
Security.
"On this anniversary, let's make sure John
McCain hears the same message. Tell John
McCain to keep his hands off of our Social
Security."
