    Depends on what you're making. If you are "low-income" yes, you still have taxes taken out, but get them back come tax time with "earned income" tax credits. So in effect you're getting back everything you paid into the system. Why should someone who has worked hard, taken risks, and made smart decisions have to pay extra for you? (Not saying you’re a deadbeat) SS will probably not be there for me either (I'm old) but anyone this day and age depending only on SS for retirement will end up being a Wal-Mart greeter when they "retire".
