Who Did What To You?

Thanks to ML for this.

An old Social Security card with the "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION" message. 
   
 


Just in case some of you didn't know this, it's easy to check out if you don't believe it. 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!!!
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. ^[9]

Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social
Security (FICA) Program. He promised:

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
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, and,

Under Johnson  (Democrat)  the money was moved to
The General Fund and Spent
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.

Under Clinton & Gore  (both Democrats) 
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?Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax
deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social
Security annuities?Q: Which Political Party decided to start
giving annuity payments to immigrants?

Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party.
Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65,
began to receive Social Security payments! The
Democratic Party gave these payments to them,
even though they never paid a dime into it! ------------ -- ------------ --------- ----- ------------ --------- --------- Then, after violating the original contract (FICA),
the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away! The worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it and believe that the Democrats are "for the people."
 
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of
awareness will be planted and maybe changes will
evolve. Maybe not, some Democrats are awfully
sure of what isn't so.

AND CONGRESS GIVES THEMSELVES 100% RETIREMENT  (Congressional retirement system, not Social Security) FOR ONLY SERVING ONE TERM

1.) That participation in the Program would be
Completely voluntary,

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ----

A: It was Lyndon Johnson  (Democrat) and the democratically
controlled House and Senate.

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --

A: The Democratic Party.

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- -----

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

------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- -

AND MY FAVORITE:

A: That's right!

But it's worth a try. How many people can YOU send this to?

Actions speak louder than bumper stickers.
