SOCIAL SECURITY – WTF???

Who Gets Your Social Security When You Die?????

As the Sister Says, Wake up!!!!!!

—KEEP PASSING THIS AROUND UNTIL EVERY ONE HAS READ IT…..
… SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT….

THE ONLY THING WRONG WITH THIS CALCULATION IS THEY FORGOT TO FIGURE IN
THE PEOPLE WHO DIED BEFORE THEY COLLECTED THEIR SOCIAL SECURITY!!!!
WHERE DID THAT MONEY GO?????????????

This was sent to me, I am forwarding it because it does touch a nerve
in me. This is another example of what Rick Perry called
“TREASON in high places” !!! Get angry and pass this on!

Remember, not only did you contribute to Social Security but your
employer did too. It totaled 15% of your income before taxes. If you
averaged only $30K over your working life, that’s close to $220,500.

If you calculate the future value of $4,500 per year (yours & your
employer’s contribution) at a simple 5% (less than what the govt. pays
on the money that it borrows), after 49 years of working you’d have
$892,919.98.

If you took out only 3% per year, you’d receive $26,787.60 per year and
it would last better than 30 years (until you’re 95 if you retire at
age 65) and that’s with no interest paid on that final amount on
deposit! If you bought an annuity and it paid 4% per year, you’d have a
lifetime income of $2,976.40 per month.

The folks in Washington have pulled off a bigger Ponzi scheme than
Bernie Madhoff ever had.

Entitlement my ass, I paid cash for my social security insurance!!!!
Just because they borrowed the money, doesn’t make my benefits some
kind of charity or handout!!

Congressional benefits —- free healthcare, outrageous retirement
packages, 67 paid holidays, three weeks paid vacation, unlimited paid
sick days, now that’s welfare, and they have the nerve to call my
social security retirement entitlements?

We’re “broke” and can’t help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans,
Homeless

In the last months we have provided aid to Haiti, Chile , and Turkey, Japan,
And now Pakistan ……home of bin Laden. Literally, BILLIONS of
DOLLARS!!!

Our retired seniors living on a ‘fixed income’ receive no aid nor do
they get any breaks while our government and religious organizations
pour Hundreds of Billions of $$$$$$’s and Tons of Food to Foreign
Countries!

They call Social Security and Medicare an entitlement even though most
of us have been paying for it all our working lives and now when it’s
time for us to collect, the government is running out of money. Why did
the government borrow from it in the first place? Imagine if the
*GOVERNMENT* gave ‘US’ the same support they give to other countries.

Sad isn’t it?

Recall Alert: 36 Million Pounds of Ground Turkey Contaminated With Salmonella

Check your freezer: Cargill Meat Solutions Corporation has recalled about 36 million pounds of ground turkey in the second-biggest meat recall in the US. The meat may be contaminated with a drug-resistant strain of salmonella, and is linked to one death in California and 79 cases of illness from salmonella nationwide.

The recalled meat was sold at stores including Kroger, Safeway and Giant Eagle; some of the ground turkey was sold under the Honeysuckle White brand. All recalled meat has the code P-963 inside the USDA inspection seal. For more photos and specifics of the recalled packages, check this product recall list from Cargill.

15 Million Pounds of SpaghettiOs and Marie Callendars Recalled

Single parents all over America just screamed “What am I supposed to do for dinner now?!!” The massive recall of SpaghettiOs and Marie Callendar Cheesy Chicken dinners are being snatched off the shelves and thrown in the trash everywhere. There were eight different cases of Salmonella believed to be caused by the Callendar meals
and 15 cases of sickness from the SpaghettiOs.
According to the Associated Press and the Centers for Disease Control, the illnesses occurred throughout the country in California, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah and Virginia. At least one of the victims was under a year old.

Now whoever fed that baby either one of these meals should be beaten within an inch of their life. This is the very reason you wouldn’t give a baby food like this ( and most adults either). The SpaghettiOs seem to not have been cooked at the right temperature which would cause Salmonella in the meatball sauce.
