Social Security Card<\/p>\n

This is a little history lesson that you won’t see in the main-stream media–now or ever.<\/p>\n

Make a copy and learn these facts–they’re relevant!!!<\/p>\n

Your Social Security<\/p>\n

Be sure and show it to your kids. They need a little history lesson on what’s what and it doesn’t matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are facts.<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

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 message was removed. The cards are not supposed to be laminated.<\/p>\n

\"OrigSScard\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

An old Social Security card with the "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION" message.<\/p>\n

Our Social Security card<\/p>\n

Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social<\/u><\/i><\/u><\/i><\/p>\n

Security (FICA) Program. He promised:<\/u><\/i><\/u><\/i><\/p>\n

1.) That participation in the Program would be Completely voluntary,<\/p>\n

No longer Voluntary<\/p>\n

2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual<\/p>\n

Incomes into the Program,<\/p>\n

Now 7.65% on the first $90,000<\/p>\n

3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from<\/p>\n

their income for tax purposes each year,<\/p>\n

No longer tax deductible<\/p>\n

4.) That the money the participants put into the independent ‘Trust Fund’ rather than into the<\/p>\n

general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security<\/p>\n

Retirement Program, and no other Government program, and,<\/p>\n

Under Johnson the money was moved to The General Fund and Spent<\/p>\n

5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.<\/p>\n

Under Clinton & Gore Up to 85% of your Social Security can be Taxed<\/p>\n

Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month —<\/p>\n

and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to ‘put<\/p>\n

away’ — you may be interested in the following:<\/p>\n

Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent ‘Trust Fund’ and put it into the<\/p>\n

general fund so that Congress could spend it?<\/p>\n

A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate.<\/p>\n

———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— —<\/p>\n

Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?<\/p>\n

A: The Democratic Party.<\/p>\n

———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— —–<\/p>\n

Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?<\/p>\n

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<\/p>\n

———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— –<\/p>\n

AND MY FAVORITE:<\/p>\n

Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?<\/p>\n

A: That’s right!  Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party.<\/p>\n

Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The<\/p>\n

Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!<\/p>\n

———— — ———— ——— —– ———— ——— ———<\/p>\n

Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe changes will<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

evolve. Maybe not, some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn’t so.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

But it’s worth a try. How many people can YOU send this to?<\/u><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
