Too little, too late. Bye Bye Dems in November.
They must be out of their minds to consider not collecting FICA taxes--even temporarily. There is enough problem with the future funding of Social Security and Medicare without doing this. I do hope that this is just one wild option that was thrown on the table. There are other taxes and fees that should be considered. Leave the aged, poor and disabled alone. Politics will have to find another way.

More proof that the system is broken and neither side has any answers.
