HISTORY LESSON ON YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY CARD:
Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn’t know this. It’s easy to check out, if you don’t believe it. Be sure and show it to your family and friends. They need a little history lesson on what’s what and it doesn’t matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are FACTS.

Up until the 1980's, Social Security cards 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 "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION" message was removed.

Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. His promises are in black, with updates in brackets.

1.) That participation in the Program would be completely voluntary [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, and 15% on the first $90,000 if you’re self-employed],

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 [Under Johnson 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 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?

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

Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?

A: The Democratic Party.

Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?

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:

Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?

A: That’s right! 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!

Now, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!

And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!

If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe changes will evolve. Maybe not, though.

Some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn’t so but it’s worth a try.

How many people can YOU send this to?

I tipped a guy who said he lost his job recently $20. Never saw nor heard from him again.
Thought I’d post this since my experience is so unique.

@Hania16836 My 2005 mustang does this. There is a drain plug in the engine dept under the windshield wipers that gets clogged. Reach down and feel around for it. Pull it out and clean. There is one on driver side also.

[onepocket @Jltburke]

@Jennnyyyyyy Either 44 or 51. Increas by 7 vs doubling.

@honeymoon250 To take pictures of the grandkids.

@michaelpatron0 Never refused a request. If I could not do it I would recommend someone who could.

[onepocket @Jltburke]

@michaelpatron0 Retired now but I ran a route for 40 years. Service. Averaged $120/ hour. Didn’t want my day interrupted by side jobs either. My day was planned. But I would honor a customer’s request immediately if it didn’t alter my day or schedule to come back and do it later.

@ronsterd89 SA is spell check error. Supposed to be just “a”.

[onepocket @Jltburke]

@ronsterd89 My 2005 mustang does this. In the engine compartment on the fire wall both sides is SA drain from the windshield rain. It gets clogged. Just pull out the rubber drain funnel and clean. Check both sides by on mine only the passenger side leaks into the floor.

@EastTNMama @ajcarrington1 You do understand that this particular thread (post) is not agreeing with you, right?

[onepocket @Jltburke]

@Kadotttt Every car has an emergency brake. I wonder why they put that in cars.

@simonateba @lisachristinect Trump’s troops? Don’t you mean our troops. And do you insinuate anything purposeful.
Libtards are shameless. What an anti-American post this is. Who is stupid enough to follow you. Must be someone out there.

[onepocket @Jltburke]

@SenMarkKelly I prefer preemptive to retaliation.
The advantages are substantial but criticism is a given. Especially from libtards.
Preemptive also sends a message to all bad actors.

@mitchellvii I keep a metal post from a wire fence in my trunk. The extra length has always done the trick.

[onepocket @Jltburke]

@eMTBrides Love it when rich people do lavish things. Many people get paid (employed) to make these events happen.

[onepocket @Jltburke]

@Milajoy Regardless. Yes
