They won't connect it with Social Security or Medicare. If they do, it'll only affect young people, not those already receiving Social Security, right? They'll assume Social Security will continue without that tax.

They'll also think that they'll save money if there's no more Payroll Taxes, even if they no longer work and no longer pay these taxes.

I mean, it's a tax cut, right?

Free money for me.
