Was this the weekend of the "Social Security Protest" (dismantlers) in DC?
Wasn't there supposed to be a protest of some sort in DC for the privatizers... replete with a "burning" of social security cards?

I haven't read anything about it - and there was nothing on Googlenews. Do I have the wrong weekend? Or was it just a whimper.

And why in the world - unless one made a copy and burnt that - would you burn your SS card after Congress just passed the "RealID Act" which requires a gazillion different pieces of identification to get or renew a drivers license?

no senior citizens with canes--just a bunch of middle class younger white people.
