The republican tax plan and the democrat’s usual obstruction




As we hear every time the republicans want to do a tax cut, the democrats always raise it is a tax cut for the rich or the republicans want to take away your social security.  Of course, when was the last time the democrats offered a tax cut plan. You would have to go back to 1962 under JFK.  Of course the democrats in congress were not enthused, but the republicans helped get it passed.   

Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security
check every month  and then finding that we are getting taxed on the money we paid to the Federal government to ‘put away' -- you may be interested in the following? 
                                                                                         
Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent 'Trust Fund' and put it  into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate.
                                                                                            
Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) 
     withholding?
A: The Democrat Party.
                                                                                       
Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?
A: The Democrat Party, with Al Gore casting the 'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the US.
                                                                                     
Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?

A: That's right! Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party.  Immigrants moved into this country and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democrat Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it.  But it did get them voters at our expense.

Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you
that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away.

And the worst part about it is the usual uninformed citizens believe it.  Mostly democrats and the lamestream media.
