Why Is Social Security Always Threatened With Bankruptcy But Welfare Never Is?
As far as I can best determine, the Social Security Program costs the US government some $848.5 Billion per year...

[link to www.pewresearch.org]

and the cost of Welfare is $1.03 Trillion per year...

[link to www.foxbusiness.com]

Social Security is a program that collected deductions from our wages over the course of our working lifetimes and then pays us back. Welfare is a straight out handout, a free gift, a charity program. How is it then that as the sellout, scumbag politicians in DC run out of money all the time because they steal too much of it for themselves and are hard pressed to payout these two programs, that they can threaten Social Security with bankruptcy, yet they never do the same for Welfare?

Why are we Americans ok with that? Why are we still electing the same old useless bags of crap year after year ? Why are these people not behind bars?

Want to see your representative do the"Washington-two-step”?
Ask this question.

Who died before they collected Social Security?

KEEP PASSING THIS AROUND UNTIL

EVERY ONE HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO READ IT...

THIS IS SURE SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT!!!!

THE ONLY THING WRONG WITH THE

GOVERNMENT'S CALCULATION OF AVAILABLE SOCIAL SECURITY IS THEY FORGOT

TO FIGURE IN THE PEOPLE WHO DIED BEFORE THEY EVER COLLECTED A SOCIAL SECURITY CHECK!!!

WHERE DID THAT MONEY GO?

Remember, not only did you and I contribute to Social Security but your employer did, too. It totaled 15% of your income before taxes.

If you averaged only $30K over your working life, that's close to $220,500.

Read that again.

Did you see where the Government paid in one single penny?

We are talking about the money you and your employer put in a Government bank to insure you and me that we would have a retirement check from the money we put in, not the Government.

Now they are calling the money we put in an entitlement when we reach the age to take it back.

If you calculate the future invested value of $4,500 per year (yours & your employer's contribution) at a simple 5% interest (less than what the Government pays on the money that it borrows).

After 49 years of working you'd have $892,919.98. If you took out only 3% per year, you'd receive $26,78760 per year and it would last better than 30 years (until you're 95 if you retire at age 65) and that's with no interest paid on that final amount on deposit!

If you bought an annuity and it paid 4% per year, you'd have a lifetime income of $2,976.40 per month.

THE FOLKS IN WASHINGTON

HAVE PULLED OFF A BIGGER PONZI SCHEME

THAN BERNIE MADOFF EVER DID

Entitlement my foot; I paid cash for my social security insurance!

Just because they borrowed the money for other government spending, doesn't make my benefits some kind of charity or handout!!

Remember the benefits for members of Congress?

+ free healthcare,

+ outrageous retirement
packages,

+ 67 paid holidays,

+ three weeks paid
vacation,

+ unlimited paid sick
days.

Now that's welfare, and they have the nerve to call my social security retirement payments entitlements?

They call Social Security and Medicare an entitlement even though most of us have been paying for it all our working lives, and now, when it's time for us to collect, the government is running out of money.

Why did the government borrow from it in the first place? It was supposed to be in a locked box, not part of the general fund.

Sad isn't it?

99% of people won't have the guts to forward this.

I'm in the 1%
