Social Security Problem

[n5ifi]

Democrats started Social Security and claimed participation in the program would be completely voluntary. Democrats then made it a non voluntary program. Democrats said participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual income into the Program. Democrats changed that to 7.65% on the first $90,000.

Democrats said that the money the participants elected to put into the program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year. Democrats made it no longer tax deductible. Democrats said the money that participants put into the independent 'Trust Fund' would not be mixed into the general operating fund. Democrats moved the social security money into the general operating fund and the money was spent.

Democrats said that the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income. Democrats changed that so that up to 85% of your Social Security can be Taxed. Which party was in charge and made these changes? Democrats!

Which party allowed Immigrants to move into this country, and at age 65, receive Social Security payments! The Democratic Party gave these payments to illegal immigrants, even though they never paid a dime into it.

The REAL SS problem in Oregon is SS fraud. There are too many people here that I know that are getting SS disability and drive nice cars and do all these fun and physical things and get around better than I do and I cannot even walk and have to use a walker due to arthritis and cannot get it. Fraud is rampent here and I see people here all the time on busses bragging they are getting 4-5 checks a month. If they would get the fraud out of the system here in Oregon it would help a whole lot.
