Duplicate post. Sorry. Bush to Revive Social Security Tax Plan

WASHINGTON - President Bush (news - web sites) will use next week's State of the Union address to try to revive a proposal that would allow younger workers to invest a portion of their Social Security (news - web sites) taxes in the stock market, aides say.


His election-year agenda also calls for pressing Congress to make already-enacted tax cuts permanent, such as the elimination of inheritances taxes and reductions in capital gains taxes. Bush is considering whether to renew his push for a new kind of tax-preferred savings accounts that could be used for retirement, college, health care or other purposes.


Bush will address the nation in a televised speech before a joint session of Congress at 9 p.m. EST Tuesday, three years to the day after his inauguration and one day after the Iowa presidential caucuses.


Approaching a battle for re-election, Bush is expected to highlight economic growth and successes in the fight against terrorism, most notably the capture of deposed Iraqi President Saddam Hussein (news - web sites).
