Not really. Trump said he's tired of the democrats not working with him. He's had enough and is executive ordering it. Can't blame him. P and S need to be fired. They are evil.

Trump has said from day one he wanted to eliminate the payroll tax, that was in his campaign speeches last time around.
The Supremes gave him the E.O. option when they said Obama's Excutive Orders, which even Obama said were unconstitutional, could stand.
I don't agree with excessive E.O.s being passed by anyone but you can't just blame Trump when people like Whitmer here in Michigan are nearing 180 E.O.s since March.

This is blatantly political but, one party is in favor of political violence and one party is in favor of workers/employers keeping more of what they have earned. This is really only the tip of the iceberg in terms of philosophical/political differences between the right and the left. If you are having a hard time choosing then there isn't a lot left to discuss.

This will be settled in the courts. I think he just did it to get both sides back to the table.

For the last 40 years, we’ve been told that the Social Security system was going broke. Seems fiscally irresponsible to suspend paying into an already troubled program.

But when the Federal government starts handing out trillions of dollars like candy at Halloween, what’s a few more hundred billion?

The Deficit Hawk is an endangered bird....in both parties.

That DemoRats are blowing way out of proportion. The country should be back to work, the kids should be going back to school and life should be back to normal. The only difference is that the elderly should be taking special precautions except in New York where DemoRat Cuomo has already murdered them all.

He did it so he could be on the receiving end of the political football. He will make a few jukes, maybe get a first down or two. The courtroom punt will not occur until after the election. He is the only one who seems to care about the working folks. The rest of the crew, on either side, are more worried about public image and lining pockets than anything else.

I'm your huckleberry. They are indeed unconstitutional by strict interpretation however in light of a long train of past practice I'll say that what's good for the goose is good for the gender.
IMO, as executive President Trump may order the IRS to not collect or otherwise perform their duties but to create tax code out of whole cloth is the purview of the House of Representives alone.

By deferring the employee portion of payroll taxes, 6.2% for Social Security and 1.45% for Medicare, workers making less than $100,000 a year will have 7.65% more of the money they earned to spend until tax time, when it will be have to paid back, if President Trump isn't reelected. It seems like a good idea to me, because it helps Americans who actually deserve to be helped.

Why do people making $99,999 per year need help?

It's the people who've lost their jobs that need help.

Obama came into office with a debt of 8 trillion and now we're at 27 trillion. All Democrats want to do is give, give, give, to keep people from working so it destroys the economy. Fight fire with fire and see who can give the most. Trump is smarter than all Democrats combined. Pulse or no pulse.

Again....if it is the EMPLOYEE portion of the taxes that are being deferred, why do all the articles on it say EMPLOYER?

Before I retired, I usually maxed out the SS withholdings about this time of year. I think the limit is now $137,700 in earnings....after that, you’re done paying into SS for that calendar year.

Higher wage earners won’t see a benefit from a payroll tax holiday.

Hmmm....I'd rather taxes keep being taken from my check if I'm gonna owe it all back if Trump dont get relelected.

That'll sting come April 2021.
