If its done properly, the Republican Party stands to gain a lot of registered voters. The Democrats have been cynical and cavalier with SS. They taxed the working man disproportionately and pissed away the surplus. Letting people actually build a savings moves voters out of the Dem ranks. This GOP Congress is pretty sucky as well but over the long haul the Dems have been the bigger theives.
