Farm Social Security Plan Faces Farm and Tax Costs
The Wagner Murray Dingell proposal would extend social security to about 12 million agricultural workers plus 3 million small businesses and domestic workers. It would charge 6 percent on wages up to 3000 for employees, 7 percent for self employed, with government aid later, and threaten state control if abuses arise. Proponents include the Grange and Farmers Union, while farm health and coverage gaps highlight the need for medical care and old age protections. The plan would reshape federal responsibility and state oversight as health and economic risks on farms remain high.
