Some of this was probably forward shifting income into 2012
due to the rising taxation rates for 2013,
but the trend-line is blunt

The SS/FICA payroll tax got Obama through the election, after that he abandoned it.
Some libs loved it because it was progressive, others were worried that it would discredit SS by disconnecting the taxes from the benefits.
They swapped in those SS IOUs faster for two years and Obama gets re-elected.
Not sure what the lesson is here though, except
‘Americans love free stuff’
