WAIT, this is what I have been ranting against for the past 5 days, I am over 31 and started working at the age of 15, so I will have nearly 20 years of contributions CONFISCATED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. I started work in the mid 90's, so WHO the F**K proposed this, is what I want to know???? And why is the NPIC quiet about it, Univision is quiet about it, the NYTimes is quiet about it. If this had been proposed by a Republican, we would be hearing about it incessantly, which makes me believe that a f*****g Democrat probably threw this out there.
Also, apparently this confiscates the period from 2004 to present. So, do I get the contributions I EARNED from 1995-2003???? Also, even in 1995, as a student working part-time, my salary was in the early $30,000s, soooo I, as a single taxpayer with no dependents or property was taxed the full bracket for everything. And I have filed every single year my tax return. I am beyond incensed about this.
Apparently this is so they can forgive the tax evaders who haven't reported their income during their years living and working here illegally. So, in exchange, I have to forfeit MY earnings to pay for my fellow undocumented who have been irresponsible. I am going to have to log off now, I am at work and I feel like crying.
