In fact Bush II borrowed nearly 1.5 trillion from SS. How else was he going to pay for two wars as well as his own tax cuts ? That's right. Bush cut taxes during his time in office as well. And like Trump's cuts who benefited the most from the Bush tax cuts? Why the wealthiest of Americans of course. And whether you're young or old if you have a federal income tax liability you will continue to pay it. In fact a person on Social Security depending on their total income can pay federal income tax on as much as 85% of their Social Security benefits. I should know. Last year I paid federal income tax on 85% of my benefits.  That's an unpleasant pill to swallow because being self employed I paid both the employer and employees share of FICA taxes.</p></blockquote><p></p>
