Dark and best kept secrets about Our Social Security.

%26gt;

%26gt;

%26gt; Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social

%26gt; Security (FICA) Program. He promised:

%26gt;

%26gt; 1.) That participation in the Program would be

%26gt; Completely voluntary,

%26gt;

%26gt; 2.) That the participants would only have to pay

%26gt; 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual

%26gt; Incomes into the Program,

%26gt;

%26gt; 3.) That the money the participants elected to put

%26gt; into the Program would be deductible from

%26gt; their income for tax purposes each year,

%26gt;

%26gt; 4.) That the money the participants put into the

%26gt; Independent ''Trust Fund'' rather than into the

%26gt; General operating fund, and therefore, would

%26gt; only be used to fund the Social Security

%26gt; Retirement Program, and no other

%26gt; Government program, and,

%26gt;

%26gt; 5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees

%26gt; would never be taxed as income

%26gt; the money we paid to the Federal government to ''put

%26gt; away'' -- you may be interested in the following:
