Taxes Like None Before
When thi fir sewhin of the 95th Congros adjourncd.
nion member of the Houne and Senate who lAd for the
Conference Committor Report on Social Sccurity went
home satisfied that Social Security financing was an imuc
sculed ome and for all.
L hope Tekans realize that it is not.
What the,Congres passed and what will take cfect this
week is an unprecedentcd and in my view totally unac-
ceptable tax package that will exist $227 billion over the
next decade, tripling the cost for those least able to pay
for it—low income wage earners and families a
Most important, this tax package ignores m2Ky of the
conditions in the Social Security financing formula which
created the very problems we have now At the same time,
it will discourage our efforts to reduce unemployment and
return vitality to our economy.
Why? First of all, the law which triples taxes over the
next decade itself may he inadequate to bring benefits up
to sustainable levels for many of the Nation’s elderly It
will not cover the projected deficits for the coming gen-
eration. and there is the very real possibility Congres
would have to raise— perhaps triple again—taxes paid into
the system over the next several years.
The larger tax bites working Americans will begin to
see taken from their checks will have an enormously de-
structive impact on needed economic growth and reduced
unemployment. Wage costs will be considerably higher,
forcing employers to reduce their payrolls.
Working in combination with recent increases in the
minimum wage, the new Social Security measure signed
into law undoubtedly will throw minorities out of work
first, extending unemployment to the very sectors most
cruelly affected now by a bleak jobs picture.
In its haste to present the President with a bill he could
sign, Congress threw together a patchwork quilt of tax
increases which keeps the system afloat temporarily, but
one which does not begin to come to grips with the larger
inherent inequities, which for example, pay benefits bear-
ing no relation to the amount of taxes paid into the sys-
tem.
It is not uncommon, you might be interested to know,
for a working couple to receive less benefits in retirement
years than a couple with only one wage earner, even
though the working couple paid much more in taxes over
the years. Single workers receive fewer benefits than
married co-workers, even if both paid exactly the same
amount in taxes over a lifetime.
With this Social Security measure passed by the Con-
gress and signed into law by the President, the old adage
"robbing Peter to pay Paul" has a regrettably new infer-
ence. Congress needlessly heaped taxes on working people,
shirked its responsibilities in improving the Social Security
system in much more comprehensive and responsible fash-
ion. and worst of all, failed again to be truthful with the
American people about the true condition of the system
millions count on for retirement security.
