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.? I don't know. 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? |

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. |
