Widow's Mite Poem by O Anna Niemus

Widow's Mite



There is a
biblical command
to take care of widows
and orphans of this land
End the cancellation of
the widow's mite
by this regime's
warmoney siphoning
illegal might.


--------------------

The US Social Security Administration Under the Bush Regime

(Since the presidency of Franklin Roosevelt, the Social Security
Administration has been set up to provide a financial umbrella
of protection to seniors, widows, the disabled.)

1. The Social Security trust fund, like that of the US Postal Service,
has been raided to provide money for the illegal war by the
unelected regime.
2. Social Security office managers know that their ascendancy
depends on reduction of benefits through a variety of measures
such as making people jump through document hoops.
Even if these have been provided before and are in the archives
the SSA has often required resubmission. In addition,
personnel are often arrogant and not oriented to service.
3. Social Security does not notify several classes of citizens
that they are eligible for benefits, e.g. widows. Nor does
it give refunds for the time in which people were unnotified.
4. Social Security offices do not necessarily provide
magazines or comfortable chairs.
5. Social Security offices at their introductory windows
can sometimes require handicapped people to stand for
for several minutes.
6. Social Security offices in federal buildings are difficult
access for patrons. Downtown parking is expensive and
many federal buildings have eliminated their garage parking for the public who are their employers. Citizens
like jack in the boxes must jump up frequently to feed
meters and then each time go through new security systems
in which four or more guards can stand around. Your taxdollars
at work.
7. Citizens asking to see copies of the law under which
they are told what they must do find such requests are frequently
denied.
8. Use of cellphones is sometimes forbidden, even though
it pertains to the application and someone has had to
wait an hour or more to get in for an interview.
9. Those who cannot afford to have nearly $100 for a Medicare
premium deducted each month find it takes several
months to stop the reduction.
10. Citizens are not given their right to oversee investments
of the SSA trusts in order to remove those which
are invested in war, in corrupt banks, in environmental
destruction, concentration camps for captive animals etc.
11. Citizens are told that if their work quarters from 40 or 50 or 60
uears agp have not been recorded by the agency, that unless
they can produce, e.g. a 60 year old W2 form from a bankrupt
or disappeared company, they have no options to have those
quarters included in their work record unless they
hire an attorney.
12. There is a capitalist taint to the system, such that the
wealthy who have been able to pay more into the system
can receive several times the benefits that millions of
Americans receive. For tens of millions of Americans,
the benefits are not enough or barely enough to provide food, clothing,
and shelter.
13. The twice unelected Bush regime has attempted to privatize
(allow megathieves in) the Social Security trust fund and
has failed.
14. However, this regime has put frequently sued Wall St. CEO Henry
Paulson, former CEO of one of the 10 most corrupt Wall St.
firms, who has links to foreign cattle ranches, (Nature Conservancy
wilderness shrines which he turned into cattle ranches during
his presidency of Nature Conservancy while he was a CEO
on Wall St) in charge of the US Treasury and the IRS. The IRS
provides SSA with nonbeneficiary addresses.
15. Chertoff's operatives in 2007 proposed privatizing the Federal
Protective Services which guard some Social Security
and other federal offices.

16. Those calling the 800 772 1213 are discouraged by
automatic tapes from waiting for agents. Social Security
Administration directors rather than serving the public
discourage them by not listing phone numbers for local offices.
Nor does neocon Google make it easy to find local numbers.
17. Some Social Security agents pressure people into giving
home addresses (SSA data has often been hacked by huge
corporations) saying it is against the law not to give this.
However agents on the national switchboard say otherwise,
that SSI recipients must give a home address but not
general SSA recipients.
18. Many utility, pharmaceutical, computer and phone companies such
as ATT, Time Warner,
A. illegally demand social security numbers
and have not been sufficiently prosecuted about this. Their
second area of illegality is that
B. they maintain illegal data bases with access to the entire SSA list of numbers.
19. Privacy is violated by the SSA which states that
it gives personal information to Congress, to the Justice
Dept. and in addition for 'general research' (researchers not
specified.)
20. It is a small thing but symbolic that Social Security does
not get involved in cents, only dollars. Cents are always
rounded off to the regime's favor, not the citizen's.


The mustard seed, the manna in the desert are
past scriptural references to the power of the God of every being to materialize
out of nothing.. these miracles are repeated every second every
time a free piece of fruit falls off a tree, a berry off a bush,
a grape or squash or tomato off a vine.
