Social Security Tax Basis to Rise Next Year
The government will tax the first 15 300 of earnings starting Jan 1 up from 14 000 this year. About 18 million workers face higher Social Security taxes with a maximum increase of 70.20 to 895.05. Employers pay the same amount. The new base aims to fund part of an 8 percent cost of living increase for 31.3 million recipients, but deficits remain projected at 3 billion this year and 6 billion next year. James B Cardwell notes higher worker taxes will raise benefits for families if needed.
