Political Factoid

If the Social Security and Medicare payroll
taxes are completely eliminated,*
then the Social Security and Medicare
programs will run out of money even faster.
This is not rocket science,
but it still may be too complicated for some people.
*  The 2011 budget "compromise" was a start -
when it reduced the payroll taxes that
pay for Social Security and Medicare.
