Appearing on Fox News Sunday this morning, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) defended his longstanding view that Medicare, Social Security (and pretty much everything else) violate the Constitution. At one point, Paul even claimed that letting Social Security and similar programs to move forward is just like permitting slavery.
Ron Paul on Social Security
Ron , like all other Republicans, wants to abolish Social Security and privatize it.
When Wall Street goes broke - the Ron Paul Social Security will also go broke.
The only reason the current Social Security has problems is because the government borrows the money for the general fund and never pays it back. This is how Bill Clinton balanced the budget during his tenure.
Later, George W. Bush showed the people some I.O.U.s and said, "This is your Social Security." If the government puts the money back, there is no problem.
The day Social Security was created was the Day Republicans wanted to destroy it. It gives the poor, elderly and disabled in America too much power and they don't like it.

Please sir...
What was said was,
"at one point the Supreme Court said slavery was legal as well.. and it had to be repealed..."
There was no comparison between the two as the author suggests.
Thank You
