Paul-I would love to blame it on Perry! I think he is a -------! However this happened back in the 80's! There are 12 states that voted to not collect SS taxes from their teachers, fireman and policemen. It is called the WEP. There is also another one but I can't think of it! Many people have paid into SS from other jobs and I paid in when I taught in Kansas and Oklahoma. It doesn't matter! You can't even draw a widow's SS from your husband if he dies before you. If you worked and previously paid in for 30 years you can draw a percentage! Go to SS and look up the law! It stinks! If your wife has never worked a day in her life...she is entitled to draw 1/2 of her husband's SS...so I guess the money I paid in will go to those women! Bless their hearts!!! They have been trying for 5 years to try to change that law in Washington...but it keeps getting pushed back!
I have worked at the state level here in Texas and many trips to Austin to try to get Texas to change. We use to have a loop hole but our wonderful state goverment closed that a couple of years ago.
