Sen. Mike Lee has sparked a debate on Social Security's future, highlighting funding issues that could lead to reduced benefits in nine years. He criticized the trust funds, likening them to a Ponzi scheme, while experts emphasize the need for reform and acknowledge the legitimacy of the trust funds, which are backed by U.S. Treasury bonds. The program, primarily funded by payroll taxes, faces scrutiny as its trust funds are projected to deplete, necessitating urgent discussions on its sustainability.
Donald Trump's tax reform proposals could exempt approximately 93.2 million Americans from income taxes, including those receiving Social Security benefits, tips, and certain occupations like firefighters and police officers. His plan aims to replace income tax revenue with tariffs, specifically a 20% universal tariff on imports, though experts argue this approach may not generate sufficient revenue. The overall tax changes could reduce federal revenue by an estimated $3 trillion from 2025 to 2034, raising concerns about the feasibility of such a shift away from the income tax system.
