Privatization

Article Abstract:

U.S. President Bush supports shifting part of the Social Security tax revenues into personal accounts. In May 2001, he appointed the President's Commission to strengthen and reform the Social Security program, which will preserve the benefits of current retirees and those nearing retirement, return Social Security to a sound financial footing and enable younger workers to invest part of their payroll taxes in individual savings accounts outside of the Social Security system.

Designed to kill humans

Article Abstract:

Assault weapons are semiautomatic rifles that require a separate squeeze of the trigger for each shot. The ten-year ban on assault weapons passed by Congress in 1994 was cancelled on September 13, 2004 by the passing of Federal Assault Weapons Act that outlawed 19 specific models of assault weapons.
