                  I recently received this from a friend.  I knew about this
                  system, but never had it so well presented

                  Pass it around.

                  SOCIAL SECURITY:
                  (This is worth reading. It i! s short and to the point.)

                  Perhaps we are asking the wrong questions during election
                  years.
                  Our Senators and Congresswomen do not pay into Social 
Security
                  and, of course, they do not collect from it.
                  You see, Social Security benefits were not suitable for
                  persons of their rare elevation in society.  They felt 
they
                  should have a special plan for themselves. So, many ye! 
ars
                  ago they voted in their o wn benefit plan.
                  In more recent years, no congressperson has felt the need 
to
                  change it. After all, it is a great plan.
                  For all practical purposes their plan works like this:
                  When they retire, they continue to draw the same pay until
                  they die.
                  Except it may increase from time to time for cost of 
living
                  adjustments..
                  This is calculated on an average life span for each of 
those
                  two Dignitaries. For example, Senator ! Byrd and 
Congressman
                  White and their wives may expect to draw $7,800,000.00 
(that's
                  Seven Million, Eight-Hundred Thousand Dollars), with their
                  wives drawing $275,000.00 during the last years of their
                  lives.
                  Younger Dignitaries who retire at an early age, will 
receive
                  much more during the rest of their lives.
                  Their cost for this excellent plan is $0.00. 
NADA....ZILCH....

                  This little perk they voted for themselves is free to 
them.
                  You and I pick up the tab for this plan. The funds f! or 
this
                  fine retirement plan come directly from the General Funds;
                  "OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK"!
                  From our own Social Security Plan, which you and I pay (or
                  have paid) into,-every payday until we retire (which 
amount is
                  matched by our employer)-we can expect to get an average 
of
                  $1,000 per month after retirement.
                  Or, in other words, we would have to collect our average 
of
                  $1,000 monthly benefits for 68 years and one (1) month to
                  equal Senator! Bill Bradley's benefits!
                  Social Security could be very good if only one small 
change
                  were made.

                  That change would be to:
                  Jerk the Golden Fleece Retirement Plan from under the 
Senators
                  and Congressmen. Put them into the Social Security plan 
with
                  the rest of us.
                  then sit back.....
                  and watch how fast they would fix it.
                  If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness 
will
                  be planted and maybe good changes will evolve.
                  How many people can YOU send this to? Better yet.....
                  How many people WILL you send this to??
                  Keep this going clear up thru the 2008 election!! We need 
to
                  be heard
