I got this e mail from a friend. Pretty interesting when you consider how much is 'taken' from your pay for Social Security NOW-as opposed to what was intended at the beginning.

You are ignoring the most criminal underhanded activity!

In 1934 the life expectancy for women was 59 and men 55, yeah they live longer!

Those evil doctors and a high falootin' medical system has increased the life ecpectancy to women 91 and men 87!

Thankfully Obamacare will save Social Security cause Beaucatic Medical Politicians will ensure that out of control life expectancy will diminish Social Security payments!

SARCASM OFF!!!!

I still use my original SS card, issued to me when I got my first after-school job, in 1960...it has the ...”not for identification” line at the bottom.

There are artificial “ways” to reduce the life expectancy of individuals. Don’t think that “population control” and eugenics won’t be a major debate in the near future. Immediately after the Left gets rid of God, there will be no barrier.
YEA! We saved Social Security! Uh, but YOU (and it will always be YOU) gotta’ go!

Please inform your friend that the original Social Security Act was passed into law in 1935. It does not improve the discussion by starting out wrong (cards issued in 1934) and going from there.
