Social Security bites deeper as cuts loom in 1960s rates
The piece warns of rising social security deductions as Congress set three more raises through 1969 and potential further increases. It notes the current 6.14 percent combined rate for employees and employers, with self employed at 4.7 percent, and projects gradual rate hikes leading to 9.14 percent by 1969 and possible 10 percent plus with future Medicare expansion. It argues for scrutiny of ability to pay amid rising taxes and declining worker share.
