> Our Senators and Congresswomen do not pay into Social

> You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for

> 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

> 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.
