I used to watch TV news and yell at the box. Now I jump up from the couch, sit at the computer and begin to type laughing maniacally saying "Wait until they read this." It's more fun than squashing tadpoles

Taking Us for Granted


I'm sure some of you have seen this come through the Email. It deserves a place here as it says what I've been saying for quite a while, that is the government is quick to confer on others benefits that law abiding citizens do not enjoy in hopes of using those people to bolster the continued reelection of the politicians.

If the immigrant is over 65 they can apply for SSI and Medicaid and get
more than my mom gets for Social Security, and she worked from 1944 till
2004, only getting $791 per month because she was born in 1924 and there
Is a "catch 22".

It is interesting that the federal government provides a single refugee
with a monthly allowance of $1,890..00 and each can also obtain an
additional $580.00 in social assistance for a total of $2,470.00/month.

This compares very well to a single pensioner who after contributing to
the growth and development of America for 40 t o 50 years can only receive
a monthly maximum of $1, 012.00 in old age pension and Guaranteed
IncomeSupplement.

Maybe our pensioners should apply as refugees!

Consider sending this to all your American friends, so we can all be ticked
off and maybe get the refugees cut back to $1, 012.00 and the pensioners up
to $2,470.00 and enjoy some of the money we were forced to submit to the
Government over the last 40 or 50 or 60 years.

Please forward to every American to expose what our elected politicians
have been doing over the past 11 years - to the over-taxed American.
