Default Re: Entitled Selfishness: Good Newsweek article on the consquences of leaving SS as is..

To Tina: know what you mean to a point. But, my husband is self-employed and he has been paying 15.3% for 29 years now. He has had no other company to pay his half and he is a sole proprietor and we pay private insurance. I've looked at his sheet and I can't believe how much he has personally paid compared to mine when I worked and had my half paid by a company. If our government would treat the social security system like a lock box, we wouldn't be in this problem today.
