Since the inception of Social Security conservatives have opposed the program. They fought its inception. They fought its expansion to add disability insurance and survivors insurance. And, they've been trying to force people to privatize Social Security by putting it in the stock market. Yes, that stock market--the one that has fallen dramatically in the last few weeks.

During that entire time there has been unified oppositin to privatization from Democrats and progressives who have been holding Wall Street and conservatives accountable.

Opposing Social Security privatization. Standing up to Wall Street. That's accountability. Over the next few weeks Accountable America will expand its agenda to focus on big issues. And Social Securit is issue number one.
