IT MUST BE THE DAY FOR SOCIAL SECURITY THINKING...!!!
WITH THE 'ELITISTS WE'VE VOTED INTO THE SENATE AND CONGRESS, I'M CONFIDENT IT WILL FALL ON DEAF EARS, AS WE SEE THESE DAYS...
BUT, IT IS A QUICK READ and WORTH A SHOT!!
I COULDN'T forward this FAST enough.........!!
2010 is an election year for 1/3 of the senate and 1/2 of the house of representatives. It would be nice if congress got the message; the voting taxpayers are in charge now.
Social Security 2009
LET US SHOW OUR LEADERS IN WASHINGTON "PEOPLE POWER" AND THE POWER OF THE INTERNET.PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS.
IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU ARE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT!
KEEP IT GOING!!!!
Propose this in 2009!
START A BILL TO PLACE ALL POLITICIANS ON SOCIAL SECURITY
SOCIAL SECURITY:
(This is worth reading. It's short and to the point.)
Perhaps we have been asking the wrong questions during election years.
Our Senators and Congress persons do not pay into Social Security and, of course, they do not collect from it.
You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable forpersons 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 congress person 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. .....
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 drawing $275, 000...00 during the last years of their lives.
This is calculated on an average life span for each of those two Dignitaries.
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. ZIP!! 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' out from under the Senators and Congressmen...and Put them into The Social Security Plan ... with the rest of us!
Then sit back.....
And see how fast they will fix it!
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and just maybe positive changes will evolve!
My friend this is all very true.In the 1980's there was a term limit plan on the table.What happened to that?Well, they dropped it after each election time.:ROFL:
What about Bush's marriage amendment?
You know the one that made same sex marriage illegal.
He forgot that as soon as he was reelected.:dancingp:
thats just not right .. they should have to make do like the rest of us.. you could take all that extra money and make it where folks wont have to work after retirement.. tis a shame they get all that and poor folk dont get hardly enuff to live on..
Dennis, Obama was the one that repealed that law...plus the one that Bush enacted that said that unwed mothers had to work at least 20 hrs a week in oder to recieve full benefits -- was one of the first ones Obama repealed.
Our congressmen have a seperate health plan (paid by us), plus 8 billion dollars of the stimulus plan is going for new cars for them and those retired!
Every bill that gets passed has some "pork" added into the fine print that benefits some congressman or another. The only way to stop this is to make your voices known on election day. Don't listen to them...to what they tell you. Go and look at How They Vote! On what they vote on. Or at the very least listen to someone that you absolutely trust.
One more thing....there is a provision in this health plan for congress to establish a Commisioner (Heath Commision) to oversee the health information infrastructure and implement new technology that will streamline and improve the availablity of a person's medical history. Sounds well and good...Right?
Well the way they plan on doing it is by implanting a "Device" exactly like the one that is used on pets to track them and their medical history. It will be inserted just below the skin. If this becomes law...it will be a violation! if you do not COMPLY!
Sounds like a MARK....doesn't it? But the Mark of What?
I have heard of a thing like that some people already put in their kids in case of kidnapping.A chip,however/ when you take the mark you know it is the anti-christ that you are giving yourself too.You also make a statement that it is his mark.He will be the one who unites many countries under his rule.He will claim to be Jesus and heal people.No world leader is doing that right now. Every account I have read says the mark does not get introduced until half way into the tribulation.It takes a outward statement that you follow the anti- christ.
