First it was W., then it was...

...Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, and now it's Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota. What do they all have in common? They want to privatize Social Security. Didn't we settle that back in 2005?

Is privatizing Social Security really what the Republicans want to talk about this year? Is that really what the public wants? Do we want to get ourselves into another bailout situation, where we'll have to bail out an entire class of people after they lose their life savings in the stock market?

Have we learned nothing from the current economic crisis?
