Don't be a Social Security Ostrich!

We are in ostrich costumes in front of the White House because we are searching for a candidate who will fix Social Security instead of sticking their head in the sand on the issue. We want to know candidates what's YOUR plan to fix Social Security?

A better question would be "What's your plan to fix the rest of the government which has been borrowing money from the social security trust fund, as if were free money that never has to be paid back? - -Young people should be screaming for a roll back of the Bush tax cuts so that the government can get its financial house in order. -For more information, see "Ronald Reagan on Social Security" - right here on You Tube.

Do the math. If you make $15 p/hour from age 22 to 67 the GOV will take $6.20 from you and $6.20 from your employer for a total of $12.40 out of every $100 you make. That is expressed this way $15 X 40 X 52 = $31,200 X 12.4% = $3,869, which is contributed to Social Security each year. Compound that using 10% per year and you should have $892,437 in your Lockbox when you retire. At 6% interest you will receive a monthly check until death of $4,462. Under the old Social Security it would be $1,195
