Retirement benefits : WASHINGTON â?? The famed bean soup served in Senate restaurants is made up of dried navy beans, smoked ham hocks, onions and a million-dollar tab for the taxpayer. That menu for financial distress could be about to change as the Senate, following the lead taken by the House more than 20 years ago, moves to privatize the restaurants, coffee shops and cafeterias located in the Capitol and Senate office buildings. The Senate last week passed a bill authorizing Senate restaurants, now run by th

Retirement benefits : MR. RUSSERT: But, Senator, you said last yearâ??earlier this year that everything should be on the table for Social Security, including looking at raising retirement age, indexing benefits, and then suddenly you said, â??No, no. Those arenâ??t offâ??on the table; Iâ??m taking them off the table.â?� SEN. OBAMA: Tim, thatâ??s notâ??thatâ??s not what I said. What I said was that I will convene a meeting as president where we discuss all of the options that are available. That doesnâ??t mean that

Retirement benefits : I have a yearly employment contract which runs from July 1 thru June 30 in a N.J. school. In January of this year, we were offered for the first time a post-retirement package with a cash bonus and medical benefits.

I have just found out that my case is currently being reviewed by the company's attorney and there is a possibility that I will not be eligible now

Retirement benefits : I received that yearly statement that the government sends to Americans 25 & up letting them know their SSI benefits if they were to retire this year.

What would you do if you were forced to live in Social Security alone?

Retirement benefits : I became unemployed/retired November 2007. I applied for unemployment insurance benefits. They denied it and I appealed. I won the appeal. Within one week of me winning my appeal I had the California Franchise Tax board investigating my past filing claims. Funny thing is I was a Texas resident during the years they were investigating. They claimed I should have submitted a tax return and I said WHY?!?!?! I'm a TX resident!!! Anyways, when I beat those bastards the Federal Government s

Retirement benefits : HE HAS SAID NUMBEROUS TIMES HE WILL RAISE TAXES! But during an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press," Obama said taxing more of a person's income was the option he would push for if elected president. He objected to benefit cuts or a higher retirement age. "I think the best way to approach this is to adjust the cap on the payroll tax so that people like myself are paying a little bit more and people who are in need are protected," the Illinois senator said. Already Obama has said he will rais

Retirement benefits : OK. B. Hussein Obama is proposing that the cap on social security be removed. This means that companies will be required to pay substantially more in FICA taxes. Since companies generally budget a fixed amount for payroll, how will this increase affect the average worker when the company eliminates the matching contribution for 401K retirement accounts to offset the increase? I don't see any positive benefit for me if the company stop matching my 401K contribution. This is the second quest

Retirement benefits : The work environment at my job is great. If I have to miss work for my children, it's no problem. The only problem is, when I miss work, I don't get paid. We don't get sick leave or paid vacation, nor do we have any retirement. What would you do in my situation? I want to find something that's salaried and has benefits (I don't need health or dental), but in the past I've quit good jobs for more money, etc. and hated it. Great answers below, can't wait to see more! I wanted to add that I

Retirement benefits : The record high stock market - "just another example of Bush policies helping the rich get richer". Government tax revenues are at all time highs - "Only the rich benefit from these record highs. Working Americans, welfare recipients, the unemployed and minorities are not sharing in these obscene record highs". Over 80% of all Americans have investments in mutual funds, retirement funds, 401K's, and the stock market - "That may be true, but probably only 5 % account for 90% of all these inve

Retirement benefits : Teachers have a good pension, retirement plan etc. They receive benefits that many of us in the free market do not.

I speak from my personal experience with friends - some of whom are teachers in the public schools.

Retirement benefits : No offense, but it seems like being a teacher wouldn't be that good of a job anyway. Sure there is good benefits, like health insurance, retirement, etc, but you would have to put up with bratty kids all day long and you wouldn't get paid well. If you are going to teach, why not become a college professor, cause then you would at least make ten times more money than what would you make if you were a elementary, middle, or high school teacher.

Money spent on this war SHOULD GO TO those who served. I am sickened and horrified at this bunch of h
