You cant undo what was done, only look for a solution going forward.
I cant recall which administration allowed to rip the SS fund but I hope they get chastized in history for doing so.
Going private?
I tell you one thing, I have a private retirement savings and no way in hell i am gonna give those $$ for the government to "invest".
even part socialist countries in Europe run their "government" pension funds like a private sector investment fund, and very successfully.
