Disaster-End of Social Security-pay out to exceed tax revenue to fund this year for first time

AND WE STILL GOT TO PAY


Right,

I am still on vacation

The founding fathers all knew Democracies were self destructive. That is why we are a Republic, or at least the constitution says so. In a Republic, the government CANNOT take your private property (including money) and give it to someone else. Our leaders are all treasonous and do not follow the constitution they all swore to uphold.

WRONG! No shocking information here! Here is the breakdown of percentage of people who get each type of Social Security:

Of 2009 Social Security benefits, 69% was for retired workers and their dependents, 18% was for disabled workers and their dependents, and 13% was for the survivors of deceased workers.

Here is a direct link to the social security fact page for 2010:

[link to www.socialsecurity.gov]

34 Million Americans get SS ($40 Billion)
8 Million Americans get SSDI ($8.5 Billion)

Note that SS (NOT) SSDI is the highest amount of money paid out there. For all your searching you did: FAIL!

Don't worry, Social Security can survive as long as we raise taxes on the younger workers!

hmm why are the jews so interested in americas doom ?

i've long believed that in order to rip up americas constitution it needs a few thousand right wingers to rise up and attempt to overthrow the gov in a vain attempt to preserve the american way of life.
i must admit thou it would take half a million well organised americans to win any kind of a fight against tptb.

a small uprising would only serve to further the agenda

Awesome idea!! One problem all the younger workers are making minimum wage, sooooo they aren't going to be much help. BA degree graduates can't find a job outside of their local supermarket, WTF, all the baby boomers have lost high income jobs (yours truly included in that debacle) so now I can retire without a job, without a decent pension and without F'n social security that I have been paying my whole freakin' life. Hmmm what the "F" did I work all those years for?? YOU TELL ME!!

It's all about survival now, don't worry about the money that will be non-existent is this country, social security will be the least of our problems. Better learn how to grow & revert back to no utilities, they will surely be bankrupt along with local, state and Fed Governments. You are officially on your own, its as plain as the nose on your face, can't you see it?

What about the illegal immigrants who are sucking dry the purses of citizens to the tune of Billion$ as the gov't subsidizes their housing, food stamps, medical care (Medicaid), education, inmates in prisons, on & on. Much of that is funded by the Social Security "trust fund".

The Kintoons, while in the White House, raped the Social Security funds to balance the budget. A Republican congress allowed it. Now they say it's the Democrat's fault for spending us out of business.

Because the Social Security Administration is registered in Delaware as a FOR PROFIT business, why did they allow OUR retirement funds to be "borrowed" against the future of retirees? It wasn't their money!

How is it that EVERY YEAR Congress votes themselves a raise?
How is it that Congress votes to appropriate funds to foreign countries?
How is it that right wing Republicans are calling for a reduction in Social Security and Medicaire? $48.5 Billion is a spit in the ocean compared to their profligate spending on frivolous projects that benefit us nothing.

How is it that Repbulicans are calling for an extension of Bush's tax cuts for the rich, who threaten to pull out of the U.S.? (The Republican party is the party of the rich, by the rich, and for the rich who have gained their wealth on the backs of the rest of us.)

And it's been this way through each administration, since Reagonomics, that has brought us to this sorry point.

YES YES THAT IS IT IN A FREAKN' NUTSHELL!!!

ITS GONNA GET ROUGH

Here are some facts:

Social Security Disability Statistics
How many people in the United States are disabled, and how many receive Social Security Disability? What is the average Social Security monthly payment? How much does America spend on Social Security Disability payments each month? Find out with our SSD statistics:

· Roughly 60 percent of workers applying for disability benefits (SDDI) are rejected, according to the Social Security Administration (SSA).

· According to the Social Security Administration's 2007 statistical report, 8.1 million people receive SSD benefits each year.

· The United States Census Bureau reported in 2006 that over 52 million American are disabled.

· The backlog in social security disability applications is so large in some areas of the country that the average wait for a hearing in some states is almost two years (600 days).

· The National Safety Council reported in 2004 that a disabling injury occurs every two seconds in America.

· Roughly 90 percent of SSD payments are made to disabled workers.

· Each month, the SSA spends about $8 billion on social security payments to the disabled around the country.

· Health Affairs reported that unexpected illnesses and injuries cause 350,000 bankruptcies a year.

· In 2007, 552,349 workers stopped their benefits and returned to their jobs.

· One out of six disabled beneficiaries received supplemental social security income (SSI) in addition to their other forms of income.

· According to the Health Insurance Association of America, one in seven workers will be disabled for five or more years during their time in the workforce.

· One third of social security payments are made to those struggling with mental diseases, conditions, and disorders.

· The average age of a person receiving social security disability benefits for work was 52 in 2007.

· The average amount of money received by disabled workers last year was just over $1,000 a month.

· In 2005, half of all mortgage foreclosures were caused by disabilities caused by unexpected injury or illness.

· Slightly more men than women received social security disability benefits in 2007.

Thank you, I was just to post an identical remark. Shlomo is absolutely factual.

But the need that money so AIPAC can buy our government using our own tax dollars. I have paid into SS for over 35 years and the government has blown the money on useless wars to profit corporations, EBT cards, and pais SSI benefits for illegals. Nobody my age has any idea how much we will need to retire, look at how much basic costs such as fuel and food have increased just in the last year. Social Security will be gone to be of what little help it would have been - although benefits could have been higher had they not blown the $ and given it to people who never paid in. When every US citizen realizes they have been robbed of money they paid a "trust fund" for 40 years or more of their lives will they finally wake up? What is it going to take?

Making sure their plan is on schedule?

Social security disability is a crock of shit ! I personally know of several people who collect and are able to work. I know a woman who collects about $1400. per month. She is too sick to work, yet everytime you talk to her she is popping out of town for another vacation. A guy I know is 33 years old and applying because of his weight! He is a gluttonous fat ass and the taxpayers are supposed to foot the bill. When fat ass did work, he had an office job and sat behind a desk all day. Now that he is hitting the dole, he still sits at a computer all day facebooking and playing video games. If he can do this, why is he "too sick to work"?
