Just in case some of you you didn’t know this. It’s easy to check out, if you don’t believe it. Be sure and show it to your family and friends. They need a little history lesson on what’s what and it doesn’t matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are Facts

Social Security Cards up until the 1980s expressly stated 
the number and card were not to be used for identification 
purposes. Since nearly everyone in the United States now 
has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway 
and the message, NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed.

Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social
Security (FICA) Program. He promised: 
��
1.) That participation in the Program would be
Completely voluntary, 

No longer Voluntary
��

2.) That the participants would only have to pay
1% of the first $1,400 of their annual
Incomes into the Program, 

Now 7.65%
on the first $90,000 
��

3.) That the money the participants elected to put
into the Program would be deductible from
their income for tax purposes each year, 

No longer tax deductible
��

4.) That the money the participants put into the
independent ‘Trust Fund’ rather than into the
general operating fund, and therefore, would
only be used to fund the Social Security
Retirement Program, and no other
Government program, and, 

Under Johnson the money was moved to
The General Fund and Spent
��

5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never 
be taxed as income. 
��
Under Clinton & Gore
Up to 85% of your Social Security can be Taxed
��
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are
now receiving a Social Security check every month — 
and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of
the money we paid to the Federal government to ‘put
away’ — you may be interested in the following: 
��
———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— —- 
��
Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the
independent ‘Trust Fund’ and put it into the
general fund so that Congress could spend it? 

A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically
controlled House and Senate.
��
———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— — 
��
Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax
deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding? 

A: The Democratic Party.
��
———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— —– 
��
Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social
Security annuities? 

A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting
the
‘tie-breaking’ deciding vote as President of the
Senate, while he was Vice President of the US
��
———— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— ——— – 
��
Q: Which Political Party decided to start
giving annuity payments to immigrants? 
��
AND MY FAVORITE: 

A: That’s right! 

Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party.
Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65,
began to receive Social Security payments! The 
Democratic Party gave these payments to them,
even though they never paid a dime into it! 
��
———— — ———— ——— —– ———— ——— ——— 
��
Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), 
the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans 
want to take your Social Security away! 

And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of
awareness will be planted and maybe changes will
evolve.

Letter from the organizers

Last year was a great year to be a Republican, especially in Collier County.  I hope that you will join “THE PARTY” as we celebrate all the volunteers who helped make Collier the Number 1 Republican county by turning out 91.47% of the vote.   This election was a true grassroots success story with volunteers at 3 offices in Collier County along with those volunteering outside the offices taking our message throughout the county talking to their friends and neighbors, writing Letters to the Editor, waving signs, standing at the polls, and so much more.  With the extraordinary efforts of all our volunteers, we won at the local, state and national level.  We are inviting all elected officials to join us in celebrating those who helped them win!

We are pleased to announce that we will also honor our Collier County Supervisor of Elections, Jennifer Edwards.  Jennifer is an outstanding example and role model for all Supervisors of Election across the state.  She maintains accurate records, manages polling locations efficiently, ensures that all voting is secure and without fraud.  She is a role model within the community and highly respected by all.

The Collier County Republican Executive Committee (CCREC) in conjunction with all the Republican Clubs in Collier County including the Women’s Republican Club of Naples Federated, the Caxambas Republican Club, the Republican Women of Southwest Florida Federated, the Collier Republican Club, the Men’s Republican Club of Collier County, and the Republican Club of Ave Maria sponsors this annual event.

Always remember ‘There is no I in Team’ – this was a fabulous team effort including every one of you!  Now it’s time to party with the full team
