----------------------------------
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 THEM).
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. 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 see how fast they would fix it.
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of
awareness will be planted and maybe good changes
will evolve.
How many people
CAN
you
send this to?
Better yet.....
How many people WILL you send this to
