You know what I find outrageous????? Having to pay income tax on social security benefits which were taxed at the time that I first earned the money, and were removed from my paycheck to put into Social Security. The Gross income was taxed on each paycheck. So why do we have to be taxed again when re receive the money that was already taxed, but which was unavailable to us until we retired? Am I misunderstanding something here( and before anyone says I DO misunderstand, I asked that question when I first applied for early SS and the person signing me up said I was absolutely right, but that’s our government for you…)
