Simple Social Security Fix--

Our senators and Congressman don't get SS, they don't pay into it. I understand their special program basically give them their leaving salary/year for the rest of their lives ,with increments of increase for cost of living. They don't pay into it either.

Push for a bill that will put them on SS instead, and see how quick it gets fixed.

Angry theres something else to Fix with S. S.

when you have a social security card....it should be a photo I.D.
on file...(just like a drivers licence) instead of the card they issue...

i'll never forget being questioned to the third degree and threatoned with arrest when i put my SS number down on an employment form one time when looking for a job....

what a bunch of crap....they gave me! when a "GIRL" in Boston had stolen my number... Identity theft is everywhere !mad:

this is a major security flaw with our present system..because all it takes to get a drivers license is a Social security card....so anyone can just lie and get one. whats up with that? it's rediculous.

Excellent Idea JPI, I have felt that the lifetime "Dole" for our politicians should come to an abrupt end.

BTW, I also think we should ALL get the same Health Care Plan, those lyin theivin bastages get too.
Technically, they do "work" for us, Right?

Yeah the Dems put up a stink over that. I liked the idea of having ME put my money where i want it to go. I doubt i'll ever see that money when i retire 40 years from now!
