FLASHBACK - THE LOOTING OF SOCIAL SECURITY TO BALANCE THE FEDERAL BUDGET Click here for article

Okay, here is the straight story. You, the American people, have been surrendering your money to the Federal Government on their promise to take care of you when you were too old to work. Look at your payroll stub. There are separate boxes for these withheld funds; they are not part of general tax revenues. Except that the US Government started spending those withheld funds on other things back during the Clinton years, and left nothing but IOUs in the Social Security Trust Fund. Only now the US Government cannot redeem those IOUs because the trillions in tax money collected from you has been diverted away from health and education services, repaying the "loans: from Social Security, roads, schools, hospitals, etc. and was spent on tithes to Israel, endless wars of conquest on countries Israel does not like, and the Wall Street bailouts/buybacks to keep the CEOs from having to go to prison over the mortgage-backed securities fraud.

An honorable government would offer an apology for embezzling your retirement, resign, then carry out an act of atonement!

But what we are seeing is an attitude from the US Government that it was always their money anyway to spend as they saw fit, and that anyone demanding the government keep their promises under which said money changed hands is just being a troublemaker. The theory is that after a lifetime of paying into Social Security, asking for that money back only helps the terrorists, and really patriotic Americans should consider killing themselves as a way to help the government balance the budget.

I am not kidding!

We are already seeing articles and Op-Eds such as the one from the New York Times shown below, suggesting that killing yourself is the best solution to the government's fiscal dilemma.

Do you get it yet?

The money-junkies want you dead! That is the message. When they can no longer get any more money out of you, they want you dead before they have to put any of that money back in.

The money-junkies are treating you like cattle, keeping you alive only as long as you turn grass into milk and cheese and new cows, then off to the slaughter house the moment you are of no further use.

That is the view the US Government has of you. You are mere cattle to them.

Time to stampede!

Thank you, WRH

Israel bombing Gaza again because ... well, they don't really have a reason ... just because!

The original report was that Israel was bombing Gaza to shut off the tunnels, but what global condemnation started to rise, Israel changed the story and claimed 6 rockets were fired into Israel from Gaza, none of which hit anything but empty lots (as usual).

Those Joyful Days of Smoking in Your Own Apartment Are Numbered

~

Since smoking has been banned in public areas and pretty much everywhere else, residential buildings remain one of the few remaining places where people can actually smoke -- not least because it can be hard to track down the culprit, and unless someone complains, why would you bother?

But people are complaining. And in 2006 a judge ruled "that a shareholder in a co-op has the right to live free of smoke, and the board is responsible to enforce the rights of victims (in these cases, second-hand smoke complainants)."

This means that it's up to the board to decide.

TSA failure: 25,000 airport security breaches since 2001, says report

~

"Yeah, but we made sure millions of people passed through with REAL butt holes, vaginas and penises. We felt or looked at all of them!"

If you think the establishment of the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA) after 9/11 has really helped to make the skies safer, think again.

A new report issued by the House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on National Security, Homeland Defense and Foreign Operations, says that since November 2001, there have been more than 25,000 airport security breaches, ranging from minor incidents like baggage accidentally being left behind, to major breaches like travelers bypassing security lines and bringing various weapons onto airplanes.

What Happened to the $2.6 Trillion Social Security Trust Fund? - It didn't just magically disappear - It was STOLEN!

~

According to the Congressional Research Service, as of December 2009, 52.2 million people received Social Security benefits. 64 percent of those beneficiaries were retired workers, 15 percent were disabled workers and 21 percent were survivors or the spouses and children of retired or disabled workers.

Here’s how President Barack Obama answered CBS’s Scott Pelley’s question about whether he could guarantee that Social Security checks would go out on August 3, the day after the government is supposed to reach its debt limit: “I cannot guarantee that those checks [he included veterans and the disabled, in addition to Social Security] go out on August 3rd if we haven’t resolved this issue. Because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it.”

Well, either Obama and Geithner are lying to us now, or they and all defenders of the Social Security status quo have been lying to us for decades. It must be one or the other.

Here’s why: Social Security has a trust fund, and that trust fund is supposed to have $2.6 trillion in it, according to the Social Security trustees. If there are real assets in the trust fund, then Social Security can mail the checks, regardless of what Congress does about the debt limit.

HOLLINGS: Well, the truth is...ah, shoot, well, we all know there's Washington's math problem. Alan Sloan in this past week's Newsweek says he spends 150%. What we've been doing, Mr. Chairman, in all reality, is taken a hundred billion out of the Social Security Trust Fund, transferring it over to the spending column, and spending it. Our friends to the left here are getting their tax cuts, we getting our spending increases, and hollering surplus, surplus, and balanced budget, and balanced budget plans when we continue to spend a hundred billion more than we take in.

Obama went on CBS and brazenly lied about whether or not Social Security checks would go out August 3 if there were no debt ceiling deal.

There is money to cover both interest on the debt and Social Security payments plus Medicare and essential defense with some money left over, as James Pethokoukis shows in this chart of the money the federal government will have in August.

Social Security And Pension Funds Should Be Separate From Government Or Company Operating Funds, So THEY Can't Steal It! (VIDEO)

The wealthy have always wanted to destroy Social Security as it gives too much power to the poor American "slaves"

By Chimp

There has always been a surplus in the Social Security fund. Social Security could never go broke.

BUT, the US government borrows from Social Security in order to balance their budget. This is how Bill Clinton claimed a balanced budget during his administration.

The problem is, THEY DON'T PAY THE MONEY BACK.

That's why there is no money there. The last time George Bush tried to privatize Social Security (turn it over to the WALL STREET CASINOS) he showed a piece of paper marked IOU and said that's where your Social Security money is.

The Social Security account should be separate from the operating budget as should all pension plans in companies.

So, when the government or a company goes bankrupt, the Social Security money or pension money is still there.

A TSA rectal speculum is a device that is inserted into the anus by a TSA screener to keep the anus open for diagnostic viewing of the rectum in order to find explosive devices or illegal merchandise or the inspector's glove that may have come loose.

The rectum is the last eight inches (20.3 cm) of the large intestine that culminates in an orifice called the anus.

Conditions that might warrant the use of a TSA rectal speculum include detecting the presence of TNT, M80s, diamonds, drugs, guns, nukes or when a TSA screener looses his glove and tries to retrieve it from the anal canal.

The speculum is typically a rigid tube or a set of blades that pushes the walls of the rectum apart so a TSA agent can view the canal with direct vision.
