Did you correct your supervisor and tell them the increase had nothing to do with the “Fiscal Cliff” bill?
Just saw my statement for my next paycheck and Will be taking about $175 hit per month...

He didn't say it had anything to do with the Fiscal Cliff bill. I'm just showing the lies of Congress, which has absolutely NO intention of providing ANY relief to the general populace in regard to taxes.
Whose definition of "Fiscal Cliff" have you been using?
My own definition included any tax rate or spending control which was going to happen on or around January 1.
Even the national debt ceiling issue coming up is included in my definition.
I would agree that the media shares your definition and I think the reason is that they didn't want to draw attention to what is happening now to wage earner's paychecks. The wailing over this has only just begun. I look forward to Obama explaining to his base that this reduction in their pay was not part of the "Fiscal Cliff" so there was no reason for him to insist on extending the reduction of the payroll tax. Even liberals aren't stupid enough not to notice that their taxes have gone up.
