The question of the hour?
Why does the U.S. Senate, Congress, and their
staff have a separate retirement plan than the
rest of the country? If you were not aware of it,
they do not participate in the failing Social Security
Plan like the people they represent.
It is time to take an honest look at the
differences between the citizens of our country and the leaders that we entrust our future
to. If we are all created equal and they are a "servant of the people" as we
have all heard that phrase a time or two, then why are they allowed to invest their
retirement funds in a better and more profitable investment than the rest of us?
It is no wonder that every time Social Security comes up for a much needed
overhaul that it always seems to get a Band-Aid instead of the proper attention an issue
as important as the retirement of most of the workers in America should. You noticed I
said most of the workers but not our elected leaders.
Now tell me what is wrong with this picture?
 Are the cards stacked against us? We all know who is doing the
shuffling and dealing, but why are our "trusted friends" dealing off the bottom
of the deck?
