Subject: Social Security: Politician's Honey Pot
If I understand correctly, retired senators and congressmen are dipping into social security for their retirement pay while contributing nothing or very little to the fund. And I understand that these people can draw this money for the rest of their lives even though they only serve one term. AND these are the same people trying very hard to lower the monthly payments to those who need it and raise the retirement age. What about it?
