"They" have been breaking Social Security, so they have an excuse to privatize it. https://www.cnn.com/2025/07/29/politics/social-security-extra-verification
The recent "Big Ugly Bill" contains a convoluted provision that supposedly creates investments for newborns. Scott Bessent said the quiet part out loud - it is a back door to privatizing Social Security. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/07/30/bessent-trump-accounts-backdoor-privatize-social-security-00484859
Additionally, the "Big Ugly Bill" will generate cuts to Social Security in several years. https://politicalwire.com/2025/07/24/social-security-recipients-set-to-get-benefit-cuts/
Please stay on the sidewalks, and respect all private property. The plaza where the SSA office is located is private property. We will bring extra signs.
