get so sick that they can't work they get money from Social Security.

Social Security. When people die, their family can get money from Social

I was trying to get a drink
of water, but I couldn't reach the water in the bottom of the pitcher.
I dropped stones in the pitcher to make the water rise to where I could
drink it. It was a lot of slow work, but it was worth it in the end.
The Moral of the Story: Little by
little does the trick. Social Security helps people to build for the future.

When I saw an ant moving
an ear of corn, I invited the ant to stop working so hard and relax with
me. The ant said he had to keep working to store for the winter. When
winter came all the ants shared the corn they stored and I had no food,
so I was very hungry.
The Moral of the Story: We need to
prepare for the future. Social Security helps you save for the future.

I am red, white
& blue. You should have a card with your own special number, which
will be the same number for life. Your parents could have gotten you a
card when you were born. Ask your parents if they got you a card. If you
do not have a card have your parents apply for one for you.
