If you go to
http://pollingreport.com/social.htmyou will see it's all about how the issue is framed. Very simple, as I'll demonstrate.
When asked:
"Another idea would let workers put some of their Social Security savings into stocks or bonds if they wanted to. That could produce higher or lower benefits depending on how the investments perform. Would you support or oppose this stock market option for Social Security?"...you get
55% support for piratization.When asked (emphasis mine)
"As you may know, one idea to address concerns with the Social Security system would allow people who retire in future decades to invest some of their Social Security taxes in the stock market and bonds, but would reduce the guaranteed benefits they get when they retire. Do you think this is a good idea or a bad idea?" N=1,008 adults, MoE ± 3you get
only 40% support for piratization.Easy, really. Just remind people EVERY TIME it comes up, that the guaranteed benefits will be reduced with piratization.
It's a winner.
