Rick Perry Wants to Raise Your Taxes

Rick Perry, amazingly elected to be a governor (of Texas) declared that the savings program you most likely contribute to (Social Security) is a Ponzi scheme.  Perry wants to do away with Social Security, meaning that all the amount you have contributed to up until now will be lost forever.  

This would amount to the biggest tax increase in United States history.  Up until now, you have been contributing money to your own Social Security account that you thought was safe.  But then George W. Bush spent your money on the Iraq War.  You didn't count on Republicans coming into power--silly you.
