Most of them pay absolutely nothing in Social Security taxes because dividends and capital gains aren't subject to it. Even if they pay the maximum in to the system ($12K for 2007), it's a mere drop in the bucket for them.<br /><br />No, it's the middle class that should be upset about Social Security. It bleeds them dry, to the tune of 12% of their salary, and offers them very little in return. And with tax hikes and/or benefit cuts looming, it's just going to get worse.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
