The piece explains that despite hopes Congress will reject a refundable 10 percent income tax surcharge, Social Security taxes rise for most workers in 1974.

It notes that Social Security funds benefits for current retirees and will burden younger workers, with the program expanding as its share of federal revenues grows from 4 percent in 1949 to about 23 percent today.
