Setting the Fox to Guard the Hen House

Two years ago, Social Security was funded by an “untouchable” fund paid for by Social Security taxes levied on 100 million American workers, every year of their working lives. The fund was solvent. At midnight on the last day of the Congressional session, Congress voted to dump the fund into General Revenues, with bilateral support, thus stealing ALL the funds from Social Security, with a promise to repay the money “someday.” Unless it is repaid in the next six years, Social Security is going to run out of money.

The overwhelming majority of the Senators and Representatives who did this are still in office. The Senators you elect on November 3 will be the ones who have to fix the system they deliberately broke. Unless you vote them out of office, they will be the very same people who stole the money in the first place. Do you trust them with your retirement?

Senators serve for six years, with one third of them standing for re-election every two years. Representatives serve for only two years, and must face re-election at the end of every two year term. Theoretically, this makes them answerable to the will of the people for their recent actions. 

Seventy-nine percent of the current House members and sixty-six percent of the Senate are the very same people who took part in the theft of Social Security. In other words, if you re-elect them, you are literally setting the fox to guard the hen house.

Don’t re-elect the crooks who stole your money! While twenty percent of the Congress are actually new to the job, NONE of them are senators up for re-election this year. And the new Representatives HAVE DONE NOTHING to try to repair the damage. This November 3, SEND NO ONE BACK! They are all either part of the problem, or unwilling and unable to fix it. Send a message to America’s politicians that stealing from the people will not be tolerated. Speak out against corruption and incompetence. Send No One Back!
