Massive fraud on the part of our nation’s leaders, who have plundered every cent of the Social Security Trust Fund and the surplus that was specifically earmarked 1983 by President Regan for the retirement of the baby boomers.”future Presidents knew and took the money regardless.
Public-issue, marketable U.S. Treasury bonds are default-proof, and that is the kind of bonds that the Social Security surplus revenue was supposed to be invested in. If this had been done, Social Security would be in fine shape today. But, instead of using the surplus Social Security revenue to buy such bonds in the open market,** the government chose to spend the money and issue IOUs to replace the spent money.*** These IOUs are non-marketable and could not be sold to anyone, even for a penny on the dollar. The government has the legal authority to declare these IOUs null and void.
Hasn’t Social Security been receiving surplus revenue ever since the 1983 payroll tax hike? Isn’t there supposed to be approximately $2.5 trillion in the Social Security trust fund? The answer to both questions is yes. But there is a problem. Every dollar of that surplus Social Security revenue has already been spent by the government.In a 1960 ruling by the United States Supreme Court, the court ruled that nobody has a “contractual earned right“ to Social Security benefits.
some did not take the language seriously because they thought it was probably unconstitutional. However, in 1960, in the case of Fleming v. Nestor, the Supreme Court upheld the denial of benefits to Nestor, even though he had contributed to the program for 19 years and was already receiving benefits In its ruling, the Supreme Court established the principle that entitlement to Social Security benefits “is not a contractual right.”
Obama has proved he has no use for the elderly and Hillary has been heard to say some deeply offensive comments on America’s elderly. Obama Care was never about us,it is about power for the progressive Democrats.as they speed to their Global Government.
The ruling class Progressive Democrat elites a have promised everything and delivered nothing but failure and economic slavery to our bloated leviathan called the U.S. Government

Senator Nelson Should Be Defeated in 2012. He Has Lied To The Voters In Florida.
U.S. Senator Bill Nelson (D-FL) voted against the Balanced Budget Amendment contained in the “Cut-Cap-Balance” legislation.
This is a 180 degree reversal from his earlier position.
Apparently Senator Nelson only supports the Balanced Budget Amendment until he has to actually vote on it.
Senator Nelson should be defeated in 2012. He has lied to the voters in Florida and he’s working to bankrupt the nation.
