Social HX

I have been working at home as a transcriptionist for about 20 years - give or take a temp job from time to time. I would like to know if there are any social groups anyone knows of for those of us who work at home. I got into this field because I have a special needs child and needed to work at home. I have a hard time with the isolation of working at home and it seems like it would be great to work in an office, etc., but then I wouldn't have the flexibility and the other advantages of ...

Ok, I found out last week that a friend of mine is collecting survivor benefits from 2 dead husbands at the same time. Has anybody else heard of that? I have a call in to social security to find out. I am hoping that if that's the case I can start collecting on my late husband at 60 and then switch to my ex-husband's retirement when I'm 62 and keep working part time and collect from both of them. It says you collect 50% of the ex-spouse's retirement be ...

Scarey stuff. Many of us have been disappointed in our MT careers, on hard times, not enough in savings, outsourced, unemployed, dwindling paychecks, and entering that last 10 year (or so) push....need Social Security....now this. The defunding of Social Security disguised as a tax cut. Hope that @$2500 a year tax cut can be spun into gold! ...

The Beckster and his $upporter$ are desparately trying to equate the two in an attempt to have people reject the concept of social justice. He'll be successful to some degree; fortunately the vast majority of Americans know a skunk when they smell one. or is that a FOX? lol ...

Social Security is a progressive entitlement program created by Republicans and Democrats working together. Those conservatives ideologically opposed have always tried to get rid of it, but voters wouldn't let them because it has always served its purpose of protecting us from the possibility of destitution when we're too old to work. Now their tactic of destroying it by delaying necessary adjustments has successfully brought Social Security to the point of failure. Like a home ...

didn't have any US flags visible at the convention, and how in 61 speeches ISIS was never mentioned. Well, Dana Perrino overheard someone yelling to get the speechwriters and get some flags. lOLOL - Also Eric Trump tweeted that flags are now being put up all over. What a bunch of losers these Democrats are. ...

Your Social Security Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn't know this. It's easy to check out, if you don't believe it. Be sure and show it to your kids. They need a little history lesson on what's what and it doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are Facts!!! Our Social Security Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. He promised: 1.) That participation in the ...

Obama says he cannot guarantee Social Security checks will go out on August 3 By Corbett B. Daly President Obama on Tuesday said he cannot guarantee that retirees will receive their Social Security checks August 3 if Democrats and Republicans in Washington do not reach an agreement on reducing the deficit in the coming weeks. "I cannot guarantee that those checks go out on August 3rd if we haven't resolved this issue. Because there may simply not be the money in the coffers to do it, ...

Hello, I love MT despite all the pay and headache-related issues of the recent past. I am disabled so I can earn my $1100 per month (which is the maximum Social Security allows) in a way that's feasible from me - from home. It's pretty perfect. It just has the drawback of social isolation. I am quite isolated and this is not good. I have been trying to think of ideas to allay this feeling of isolation (which gets so bad I am having an ECT consultation next wee ...

aimed at seniors and disabled (AKA "deadbeats") by imposing hindrance/prohibition on routine fund allocations unless benefits are cut or their payroll tax rates are hiked. They are too cowardly to do it in broad daylight, so they've decided to take cover under the House rules guise. The link further exposes GOP demonization of handicapped/disabled Americans. They must have gotten bored with beating up on the poor and immigrants. "Empathy," GOP style. ...

Seems I may be disabled according to grid guidelines (age, inability to use 2 limbs). Watched the YT videos but am unable to find out the approximate time of when the medical examiner approves and the check arrives. Am trying to save my home and believe bank will work with me if they knew my future held a reliable income. I am unable to find a job in MT and have not had an income for 6 months. Running out of things to sell and am 2 months late on mtg. Does anyone have any expe ...

A friend and I was having a conversation last night about the personal information people put out on these social websites. She read on another friends wall that her husband was in the hospital and gave the room number, name of hospital and telephone number. She was telling me why would someone post that kind of information for all to see. She was saying you don't have to be a PI to track down these people with all the information they give out. People don't use their noggin wha ...

Seeing the constant, raging debate in this country day after day I've been thinking a lot about the futility of political change. True change in the system of politics is both unlikely to happen and potentially ineffective even if it did. The problem as I see it is that the American culture is now one of endemic greed. My observation of the rich is that - despite their behavior as soulless, heartless sociopaths - they appear to be identical to poor people, except that they ...

I posted a link that was written back in Aug 2012, but it provides a lot of context to the current IRS targeting story. I'm not by any means defending the IRS. Targeting based on any predjudice is unacceptable (i.e., churches during Bush Adm that were audited for sermons that were interpreted as anit-war). I was warned when I itemized one year that claiming a home office was an IRS red flag and to be absolutely within the defiition of a home office because they have progr ...

This should be determined on necessity prices, not general cost of living numbers.

So I was thinking, if I was a criminal, what sort of crime would I do. I could only think of economic reasons. There was not one crime for money that I thought would be worth doing and going to jail over. Selling drugs, burglary, banks, jewelry stores, kidnapping, fraud and swindling. Nothing would be as good as a good paying job. If everyone had a job that provided the basics of life, we could do away with at least 50% of the crime and a lot of problems would fix ...

Democrats supporting Trump, republicans supporting Sanders, and a few of both parities supporting Rand. I'm personally behind Sanders. I know some of his ideas are not doable. At the same time, maybe he's the guy to at least get the ball rolling. I'm not dumb enough to believe any politician is completely "real," however, I think Sanders is probably the most "honest" of both party candidates. I've been paying attention to how he votes and to what ...

Bernie Sanders, Ind/Dem/Socialist, plans to propose legislation that would strengthen Social Security without cutting benefits to any of its beneficiaries. Sanders’ legislation would eliminate the income cap that currently exists in the payroll tax that does not tax income above $106,800:*****To keep Social Security strong for another 75 years, Sanders’ legislation would apply the same payroll tax already paid by more than nine out of 10 Americans to those with incomes over $250,000 ...

Rep Pete Sessions (R-Texas) is responsible for the Second Coming. Under the guise of "voluntary" choice, The SAFE scheme would quietly transition to full diversion of employer matching contributions into such private accounts over a 15 year period. Would everyone who trusts Wall Street and bankers to manage their retirement funds please raise their hands? Caution: Watch out for those familiar smoke and mirrors and bait and switch hazards dead ahead.& ...

The greedy rich, looking for ever lower taxes, convinced people their lower incomes arose, not from their pickpocket legislation, but from deficit spending. And their victims actually bought it and obligingly held their pockets open.But they still have their own agenda, and even as they become poorer and poorer, these new True Believer deficit hawks are turning on everyone, even themselves. Today, House SCs voted down the Greedies' farm bill so many pubs depend on for jobs, not amend it. E ...

The Social Security Administration paid $1 billion in benefits to individuals who did not have a Social Security Number (SSN), according to a new audit. The agency’s inspector general found errors in the government’s documentation for representative payees, otherwise known as individuals who receive retirement or disability payments on behalf of another person who is incapable of managing the benefits themselves. The audit released Friday found thousands of cases where there was no SSN ...
