Social Security System
Subject: Social Security System:
Our Senators and Congressmen don't pay in to Social
Security, and, of course, they don't collect from it.
The reason is that they have a special retirement plan
that they voted for themselves many years ago.For all
practical purposes,
it works like this:
When they retire, they continue to draw their same
pay, until they die, except that it may be increased
from time to time, by cost of living adjustments.
For instance, former Senator Bradley, and his wife,may
be expected to draw $7,900,000, with Mrs. Bradley
drawing $275,000 during the last year of her life.
This is calculated on an average life span for each.
This would be well and good, except that they paid
nothing in on any kind of retirement, and neither doe
any other Senator or Congressman! This fine
retirement comes right out of the General Fund: Our
Tax
Money.While we , who pay for it all, draw an average
of $1000/month from Social Security.
Imagine for a moment that you could structure a
retirement plan so desirable that people would have
extra deducted so that they could increase their own
personal retirement income. A retirement plan that
works
so well, that Railroad employees, Postal Workers, and
others who aren't in it, would clamor to get in. That
is
how good Social Security could be, if only one small
change were made...
That change is to jerk the Golden Fleece retirement
out from under the Senators and Congressmen, and
put them in Social Security with the rest of us.
Then..watch how fast they fix it! If enough people
receive this, maybe one or some of them along the way,
might be able to help. How many can YOU send it to?
Pass this along, so as many people as possible.can
read this.
