But according to the SSA, unless the program is changed dramatically by elevating the retirement age, cutting benefits, and generally changing the “trust’ of the system itself, there may be no guarantees for the generations footing the bills when their retirement benefits come due.
When pressed on the problems and reasons why this is occurring you usually hear the following excuses.
- The Trust Fund has been raided by the Federal Government annually so there is really no “fund” per se.
- The number of retirees from the Boomer generation will overwhelm the system, requiring more in benefits than the system is taking in.
- High unemployment means less in the coffers to meet benefit levels.
- People living longer and therefore drawing more on the system than was first statistically configured.
There are other reasons given which politicians like to throw around, but the main two reasons overlooked or rarely mentioned fly in the face of Political Correctness, namely, ABORTION and ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. The abortion tragedy has been fueled by Planned Parenthood, while illegal immigration has been sanctioned by a Federal government not willing to protect our borders.
Abortion in America has killed well over 40 million potential citizens. While it is true that of those 40 million there would have been a percentage that would wind up living off the system through social entitlements or the penal system, the vast majority would have contributed to the US workforce and been taxpaying contributors to the Social Security Trust Fund.
But money is just a part of the story. We may never know of those whose lives were snuffed out just how many doctors, scientists, clergy, artists, business entrepreneurs, Nobel Prize winners, inventors, farmers, researchers, etc., would have been contributors to the “wealth” of the nation.
And while many say that Illegals come here to do the jobs that Americans won’t do, the vast majority do not pay taxes while working the system to receive benefits funded by US citizens.
Now Planned Parenthood (known for its promotion of abortion as a method of birth control) wants to set the agenda for all of the sex education in America. Planned Parenthood's Web site announced the group is preparing to launch a nationwide “social change initiative” to end the “stigma and shame about sex” in American culture. The project hopes to teach parents and guardians how to educate children about sex beginning at birth. Among the suggestions from Planned Parenthood are informing teenagers about masturbation, oral sex and where to go for help to prepare to be sexually active.
Planned Parenthood is not only bent on genocide, but will not be content until it brings about its very own sexual revolution under the guise of ‘sex education’.
So while you may read of many reasons for the Social Security money crunch, remember that we have legalized the murder of over 40 million babies and stood by watching the infiltration of untold millions of illegal aliens that have added to the angst of a system designed to work on “trust”.
