Just dealing with the Social Security deficit would require a 4.5 percentage point increase in payroll taxes, the authors say. Such an increase would take the combined Social Security tax to nearly 17%. (Currently Social Security takes 6.2% of workers checks while employers contribute another 6.2%, for a total of 12.4%.)

Wow...and that's before we talk about extending the tax to higher income limits. This is a future liability, while the current ACTUAL debt of $9 Trillion, in today's money, seems to be perfectly ok with you, particularly if it keeps a few lousy dollars in your pocket...yet you claim to be concerned about my children. What a guy...
