Take a look at the numbers, and follow the money

Mr. Krugman helps us unpack the language of the right wing steam roller yet again in his column in the New York Times, showing how the privatizers of Social Security are selling snake oil to the black community and tipping their hand to show their lack of hope of improving the inequalities in our society.

The evidence against the value of privatizing, or semi-privatizing, Social Security is overwhelmingly against, and as it seems therefore suicidal to pursue such a goal so patently, one can only conclude that this maneuver is a feint to keep the social watchdogs occupied whilst the right pursues its short-sighted destruction of our protections and their limitations, the limitations that were put in place to stop them from going too far, which is something that they are prone to do because they have no system of evaluation other than money and position in the societal hierarchy, based again on economic strength. All other evaluations are secondary or meaningless to them, making them excellent business machines, but not much use as fellow citizens.
