He signed the Social Security Act into law but it had no health care provisions associated with it. He tried to generate interest in a universal health care system as did subsequent administrations but Congress never passed any of them until 1965 when Medicare was signed into law by President Johnson. Was social security originally intended to be a loan? Ooops, I bunged it up again. How about unemployment ins.? |

Was social security originally intended to be a loan? Beats me. I was reading that there is a little known rule that allows you to use it as an interest free loan though. If you start collecting early (like at age 62) and make it to 70 you can pay back all the benefits you received (interest free) and then start collecting at the higher monthly rate. |

I think unemployment benefits are taxable as income, so I don't think they can be considered a "loan". Each state has different rules, so how it all came to be .... who knows? |

Why would you want to give the government back 8 years worth of SS benefits you have invested over the years to start collecting all over again? |

A loan is paid back, those receiving unemployment payments do not pay the money back. Those receiving social security do not pay the money back. Remember that the SCOTUS has already ruled that you have no claim on the money you paid into social security, it is a tax and not an insurance product. |

When FDR signed Medicare into law, it was supposed to be a loan which was supposed to be paid back. Whatever became of that law? Betcha the liberal democrats worked it over real good in exchange for votes. FDR? Medicare? That was LBJ and it was always simply a wealth transfer from the young to the old, just like FDR's Social Security. It is interesting that when you really look at wealth you see the people over 60 have several times as much money than those under 60 and we still get all the breaks Not only are we ****ing away your inheritance, we are also taking your salary. Garmpa needs a new boat Thanks kids! Social Security was originally intended to be insurance. It provided for a baseline income for the retired elderly who otherwise would not have any source of income. Obviously things have changed over the years ... people live longer and, in many cases, have investments, savings and/or pension plans that provide a source of income in their retirement years. The rules for SS are going to have to be changed. A means test will probably be the most logical way to determine benefits. It has only been recently that SS has been redefined (unofficially) as an entitlement or as a tax. SSI still stands for "Social Security Insurance" and as insurance doesn't necessarily mean you automatically get the benefits. We pay for health insurance, property insurance, automobile insurance and we all hope we never have to collect on them. |
