  ----------------------------------

  SOCIAL SECURITY:

  Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions during election years.

  Our Senators and Congresswomen do not pay into Social Security and, of
course, they do not collect from it.

  You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for persons of their rare
elevation in society.They felt they should have a special plan	for themselves.
So, many years ago they voted in their "own" benefit plan.

  In more recent years, no congressperson has felt the need to change it. After
all, it is a great plan.

  For all practical purposes their plan works like this:
  When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until they die.

  Except it may increase from time to time for cost of living adjustments..

  For example, Senator Byrd and Congressman White and their wives may expect to
draw $7,800,000.00 (that's Seven Million, Eight-Hundred Thousand Dollars), with
their wives drawing $275,000.00 during the last years of their lives.

  This is calculated on an average life span for each of those two Dignitaries.


  Younger Dignitaries who retire at an early age, will receive much more during
the rest of their lives.

  Their cost for this excellent plan is $0.00. NADA....ZILCH....

  This little perk they voted for themselves is free to them. You and I pick up
the tab for this plan. The funds for this fine retirement plan come directly
from the General Funds;

  "OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK"!

  From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or have paid) into,  
-   every payday until we retire (which amount is matched by our employer)-we
can expect to get an average of $1,000 per month after retirement.
  Or, in other words, we would have to collect our average of $1,000 monthly
benefits for 68 years and one (1) month to equal "Senator" Bill Bradley's
benefits!




  Social Security could be very good if only one small change were made.

  That change would be to:


  Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Plan from under the Senators and
Congressmen. Put them into the Social Security plan with the rest of us


  then sit back.....


  and see how fast they would fix it!

  If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and
maybe good changes will evolve.

  How many people
  CAN you send this to?

  Better yet.....


  How many people WILL you send this to ?


  Never give up, even when the odds are stacked against you and you feel that
  there is no hope. You can never have "No" or "Can't" or "Won't" in your
heart,
  better yet, keep it out of your vocabulary. Have faith in yourself, even when
  no one else seems to, and when your faith is lacking, remember those that
have faith in you no matter what.
