Social Security taxes aren’t an “insurance premium”. They’re payments into a ponzi scheme. Let me keep the money I earn and invest it my self, not have sucked into a fraudulent scheme that spends it as soon as the tax is collected.
As I mentioned on another thread, any freeper who really believes he or she isn’t paying enough to the federal government, is free to send in more money, voluntarily. Count me out - my family and I can’t afford to be so generous to the feds and the Social Security ponzi fraud.

Thank you. You are exactly correct.
What conservative in his right mind would oppose extending this tax cut? Hell, if Obama wants to cut it still further, we should one up him and propose an even deeper cut. Social Security is indeed nothing but a ponzi scheme. I'd prefer to invest my own money, thank you very much. We would be INSANE to put ourselves in a position to oppose this payroll tax cut extension. It would make the Democrats the party of tax cuts for every worker, and the Republicans the party of increased worker taxes.
A bigger ponzi scheme is our debt. We’ll be over 90% of GDP before the next president signs his first budget. We’ll be default at around 120%, probably in his first term.
