NEW: John Sununu said he’s “willing to” privatize Social Security if elected. In office, Sununu repeatedly tried to privatize Social Security, risking Granite Staters’ retirement savings to boost Wall Street profits. #NHPolitics #NHSen Watch more from @WMUR9_Politics.

If our Social Security money were invested like Nancy Pelosi invests her money, we would all be rich by now!

Once again, the members of the @DemSocialists are grasping for taxpayer money. Granite Staters are done with funding the socialists. #nhpolitics #voters

Social Security is running out of money because both Parties spent the money. Democrats never want to solve a problem because they just tax more and turn on the printing press hurting the poor & middle class. I’d like to hear a leader like Sununu’s ideas and other people’s new ideas.

OLD: Democrats say they will implement income and sales tax if elected, taking more money from granite staters paychecks to fund their special interest groups.

Should be privatized people would have skin in the game of pushing GDP . Look at 30trillion value of combined 401ks and IRAs today. Compared to the 2.36 trillion ssi balance 2025.

This might be the most economicly illiterate democrat post ever, and that is a pretty high bar.

What is your solution? Currently people paying in especially young people will never see a penny the way that fund works. why is the gov in the business of saving our money & redistributing it as it sees fit? What part of the constitution says that?

It has been documented that a typical 401k would outperform the Social Security fund.

TRUMP has already taken care of Social Security. WILL BE GREAT AGAIN!
"In the campaign, I made a sacred pledge to our seniors that I would always protect Social Security, and under this administration, we're keeping that promise... for generations to come." - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸

George bush wanted to do the same why is it that democrats can’t see the the future

Democrats will tell you it’s better that the Government forcibly take your money to operate a ponzi scheme instead of allowing the individual to invest and control their own earnings that in the end would be substantially more than the Government will ever pay out

I’m 57, if my social security payments had been invested privately I would have been retired 7 years ago. Why do democrats want us working until we’re near death?

Excellent! I'd trust a private institution over politicians. Democrats (aka Communists) have been poor stewards.

This would be great news! Young people deserve to invest their money at a reasonable rate of return rather than funding a broken government entitlement.

We have been told there will be no SS for Gen X. So there's that

And your answer is nothing. Good job. Tax the rich 🤔

Well maybe it's time to give young people a chance to invest their own money.
🚨 RUBIO JUST SAID THE NUMBER THEY NEVER WANTED ON TV 🚨 Americans work 40 years. They retire. Social Security: $800. $900. A thousand a month. Somebody who got here from Cuba three months ago: $1,500 a month. Marco Rubio said it out loud. “So imagine if you’ve been working here for 40 years and your Social Security check is smaller than the benefits going to a 28-year-old, able-bodied person who just got here. That’s real. That happens. That’s happening every day. That makes no sense.” You paid in. They landed. They beat your check. That’s not compassion. That’s a slap in the face with your own tax dollars.

You hate it because you can’t steal from it.

Just financial dolts over there at the Dem Party. Maybe WMUR could do a simple $100k in SS between 1980 and 1990 payment vs fully invested in the S&P 500. Do a little work for the well being of society you frauds
11
That will put our SS at risk. Of course, Vanguard, BlackRock, JP Morgan would love to get their hands on our $$$. Don’t let them. Please vote for Chris Pappas!

If social security had been privatized I would have over a million dollars in my account. Instead, Social Security will go bankrupt in 7 years because Democrats need to control everything.

WMUR carrying the Democrats water again, unfortunately it's not a surprise.

Social Security shouldn't be privatized. It needs to be completely abolished.

Then you can stay a poor democrat living off the teet of the archaic government program:

It’s a Ponzi scheme though

I personally think it’s a great idea! Then maybe you sick democrats wouldn’t be able to get your slimy hands on it.

Democrats are just willing to steal it and bankrupt it....

You want to introduce an income tax and sales tax! Talk about deflecting! It’s our money. Keep your socialist hands out of our pockets!

Good . I hope we do. Government f's up almost everything

Sounds great. I’d have roughly a $6 million retirement account if Social Security was private. Instead, I get government run shit.

Itd be solvent and people collecting social security would have a better return when they retire, they'd be millionaires once they can get that back. But the best you can offer is $1600/mo & being forced out of their homes and it being insolvent before I turn 30...
