Why have Republicans went along with the 2% Social Security withholding exemption? It doesn’t make sense while the the inflows are eqauling the outflows, and IOU’s can’t be paid.

I know, where did that come from?

I’ve heard the employer still pays the “match” but the employee gets the 2% break.
Does anyone know what a self-employed person gets?

If the Republicans were smart, when the time comes close for the 2% discount to expire, they should propose that the 2% should go to Individual Investment Accounts and not to the Government "Lock Box".
