[lbo-talk] Re: Bush using SSA to propagandize

[John Thornton]

Is it working?
My feeling, based solely on conversations with residents in MO, FL, and NY, 
is that people don't perceive there is a crisis. I haven't spoken to anyone 
who truly believes there is a crisis looming, just that something will need 
to be done eventually. If not now then next year or five years from now. It 
isn't imperative something be done immediately to avert catastrophe.
I haven't read any polls about peoples feelings about the immediacy of 
action needed so that's just a seat of the pants feeling.
Some of them however have no problem with the WH plan as they think it 
offers them "choices" which as everyone knows is always a positive.
