SOCIAL SECURITY
(This is worth reading. It is short and to the point.)
Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions during election years.
Our Senators and Congresswomen do
not pay
into Social Security and, of course, they do not collect from it.
You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for persons
of their rare elevation in society.
They felt
they should have a special
plan for
themselves. So, many years ago they voted in their
own benefit
plan .
In more recent years, no congressperson has felt the need to change
it. After all, it is a great plan.
For all practical purposes their plan works like this:
When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until they die.
Except it may increase from time to time for cost of living
adjustments..
This is calculated on an average life span for each of those two
Dignitaries.
For example, Senator Byrd and Congressman White and their wives may
expect to draw $7,800,000.00 (that's Seven Million, Eight-Hundred
Thousand Dollars), with their wives drawin g $275,000.00 during the
last years of their lives.
Younger Dignitaries
who
retire at an early age, will receive much more during the rest of their
lives.
Their cost for this excellent plan is $0.00.
NADA....ZILCH....
This little perk they voted for themselves is free to them. You
and I pick up
the tab for this plan.
The funds for this fine retirement plan come directly from the General
Funds;
" OUR
TAX DOLLARS AT WORK"!
From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or have paid)
into, -every
payday until we retire (which amount is matched by our employer)-we
can expect to get an average of $1,
000 per month
after retirement.
Or, in other words, we would have to collect our average of $1,000
monthly benefits for 68 years and one (1) month to equal Senator! Bill
Bradley's benefits!
Social Security could be very good if only one small change were
made.
That change would be to
Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Plan from under the Senators and
Congressmen. Put them into the Social Security plan with the rest of us
then sit back.....
and watch how fast they would fix
it.
If enough people see this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted
and maybe good changes will evolve.
How many people can YOU send this link to?
Better
yet.....
How many people WILL
you send this link to??
Keep this going clear up thru the 200 8
election!!
We, the people, need to be
heard
