Social Security Cards

Social Security Cards up until the 1980s expressly stated the
number and card were not to be used for identification purposes.

Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number,
it became convenient to use it anyway and the, "NOT FOR
IDENTIFICATION" message was removed.

Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security
(FICA) Program and his promises were as follows:

1.) That participation in the Program would be Completely
voluntary [No longer voluntary],

2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first
$1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program [Now 7.65% on the
first $90,000, and 15% on the first $90,000 if you’re self-employed],

3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program
would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year
[No longer tax deductible],

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 [Under Johnson the money was
moved to the General Fund and Spent], and

5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed
as income [Under Clinton & Gore up to 85% of your Social Security
can be Taxed].

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

Now, after violating 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, though.

Actions speak louder than bumper stickers.
