DARK AND SOME BEST KEPT SECRETS ABOUT OUR SOCIAL SECURTY
This was
sent to me by a trusted friend; a friend that stays 'informed.' I
thought it so important that I have chosen to share it with you, my
Faithful Readers ~ Ms.CiCi
"Many years ago in
Seattle,
two wonderful neighbors, Elliott and Patty Roosevelt came to my
home to swim on a regular basis. They were a great couple
full of laughter and stories that today I continue to
marvel at. Both are now deceased, but their stories
remain. During the years of our friendship we had many,
many discussions about Elliott's parents (President Franklin
D. and Eleanor
Roosevelt)
and how his father and mother never intended for the Social Security
and Welfare programs to turn out the way they are today.
Elliott used to say that if his parents returned to earth today
and saw wht the politicians had done to their programs they would have
burned all of them in hell.
Here is a story I received today regarding the
Social Security Program and I immediately thought of Elliott's
comments. I Hope you will read this and think about it.
Franklin
Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security
(FICA) Program. He promised:
1.) That
participation in the Program would be completely
voluntary.
2.) That the participants would only have to
pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual incomes into
the Program.
3.) That the money the participants elected
to put into the Program would be deductible from their income
for tax purposes each year.
4.) That the money the
participants put into the independent "Trust Fund" rather than
into the General operating fund, and therefore, would only be
used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no
other Government program, and. . .
5.) That the annuity
payments to the retirees would never be taxed as
income.
Since many of us have paid
into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check
every month -- and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85%
of the money we paid to the Federal government to "put away"
-- you may be interested in the following:
Q: Which Political Party took Social
Security from the independent "Trust Fund" and put it into
the General
fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was
Lyndon
Johnson and the democratically controlled House and
Senate.
Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income
tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?
A:
The Democratic Party.
Q: Which Political Party started taxing
Social Security annuities?
A: The Democratic Party, with
Al
Gore casting the "tie -breaking" deciding vote as
President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the
US.
Q: Which Political Party decided to start
giving annuity payments to immigrants?

This Is My
Favorite:
A: That's right! Jimmy
Carter! And the Democratic Party of course!
Immigrants
moved into this country, and at age 65,
began to receive
Social Security payments! The
Democratic Party gave these
payments to them,
even though they never paid a dime into
it!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Then, after doing all this lying and
thieving and violating
of the original contract (FICA), the
Democrats
turn around and tell you that the Republicans
want
to take your Social Security away!
And the worst part about
it is uninformed
citizens believe it!
|
|
If enough people receive
this, maybe a seed of
awareness will be planted and maybe changes
will
evolve. Maybe not! Many Democrats are
awfully
sure of what isn't so!!
It's
Not A Matter Of One Being A Democrat, Republican Or Even An
Independent. . . It's A Matter Of Each And Every Citizen Taking The Time
To BE INFORMED.
Remember: EVERYONE'S actions speak louder than their words, including their bumper stickers!
