On the recordMay 3, 1994
Social Security taxes keep going up. Social Security keeps crying they need more money. So guess what? The Social Security Administration last week awarded $32 million worth of bonuses. For example, one Deputy Commissioner, Lawrence Thompson, who was only working there for 2 rac{1}{2} ext{ months}, 75 days, got a $10,000 bonus: $4,000 a month, $1,000 a week. What did Thompson do to deserve that? Close your eyes and what do you see? Nothing. This is unbelievable. I say we need a massive investigation of the Social Security trust fund. I do not believe what we are being forced fed, Congress. I say the money coming in one door to Social Security is going out the other door, and there is a wastebasket all filled up with IOU's. These are not bonuses. This is highway robbery. Some of these creeps should go to jail for it.
