    The characteristic that describes privatization of Social Security is option C) enables Americans to invest their Social Security Contributions in the stock market. This is the most accurate option but still not wholly accurate. There are different proposals for privatizing. Most would have the existing funds used to buy into the market and then the individual person would have different options for how their own funds were then handled within the market. For instance they could take over control of their fund and buy/sell their various shares. Or they could move their shares to be handled by an investment company, or even just leave them in the original shares that were bought by the government during the transition to privatization. Bottom line, the individuals would have some control of there shares in the stock market.
