PROTECT SOCIAL SECURITY! SENIORS & RETIREES NEED IT.

Problem
The Federal Government wants to rescind Social Security for Retirees and Senior Citizens! SS is NOT an entitlement. SS IS A BENEFIT WE AND OUR EMPLOYER'S PAID OUR HARD EARNED CASH TO RECEIVE!

Solution
Our funds should have been and must NOW be placed retroactively into a Deferred Compensation or 457K Account like all other Retirement Pension Accounts. When individuals retire, they should receive BOTH a Retirement and a SS Check - both with interest from market activity and biweekly or monthly deposits.

Personal story
I am A. Antonia Barry. I worked as a Public Servant and Manager in one of the largest bistate organizations in the world. After 32.08 YEARS of stellar service, I retired on August 30, 2018 to provide additional financial and health care to my then bed-confined mother. Little would I know my beloved would go Home to Glory on September 16, 2018, RIP. My father went to Glory March 16, 2010, RIP.

My mother did not receive my father's SS after he died, God Rest His Soul and she lost $120,000 of his hard earned labor. Then when my mother died, RIP, SS cut off her check before the end of the month she passed away in! How could this happen? Does SS and or Medicaid determine that someone can no longer receive benefits if they have amassed a certain amount of medical expenses via Health 1st, Medicare and or Medicaid?

Patients deserve to live and their families deserve to receive the wife and or husband's benefits if the spouse and or parent expires. Failure to do so results in excessive debt on family members, including but not limited to foreclosure, taxes, water and utility bills the family cannot afford although they must continue to reside in the home. Then there is the HOMEGOING expense, probate and attorneys fees, and outstanding bills and maintenance bills.

FAMILIES NEED SS IN LIFE & AND IN DEATH!!!
