Just because I find your view wrong means I'm juvenile?
I understand that dropping the collection of FICA tax will put more cash
into the hands of the little people -- me included -- but my point is that
FICA is akin to forcing Americans to save money for their retirement. If
we
give them a bye on saving, then they get less in retirement, and SS is
already a pretty crappy retirement account, so stopping the collection of
FICA taxes will do more harm than good.
