This distortion of the truth by including social security as a tax has become standard Democrat BS, but try suggesting to any of them that you let people opt out or manage the money themselves, and they attack you for trying to kill SS. What they really want is to get rid of the income/contribution cap, but leave the benefits capped - or better yet, the same for everyone regardless of how little you contribute. They want to make it an income redistribution tool instead of just a mandatory-participation pension. But leave it to Dizzie to push the distortion to the point you demonstrated to be mathematically wrong and not just misleading spin. Good work.
