Then they take your money away from you your whole working life but promise you a pension when you retire . Then they threaten to confiscate your pension ?

FICA Federal Insurance Contribution Act

Emphasis on Contribution in this act.

[abb]

It says “contribution,” but try not paying it if you work for a living. It’s a tax, by any definition of the word.

Is there any real chance this confiscation could pass and apply to people who are already working? Or retired ? Should Americans sign up to take social security ASAP ? ( contrary to other advice to delay taking it because the pension gets bigger?). We need to be practical about this — we need more facts if we are to have any chance of protecting ourselves from having part or all of what we paid for - stolen right from under us now
