SOCIAL SECURITY
The way it really
happened. 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 party took Social Security
from an independent
fund and put it the general fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was Richard
Nixon and the Republican-controlled House and Senate.
Q: Which party put a tax on Social
Security?
A: The Republican Party
Q: Which party increased the tax on
Social Security?
A: The Republican Party with Dick
Chaney casting the deciding vote.
Q: Which party decided to give money to
immigrants?
A: That's right, immigrants moved into
this country and at 65 got SSI
Social Security. The Republican
party gave that to them although they
never paid a dime into it. Then, after doing all
this, the Republicans turn
around and tell you the Democrats want to take your Social Security and t
the worst part about it is … People
believe it!
