There's been a lot said about Social Security reform. What has been left out of the debate is the double tax on Social Security benefits. I believe it's time to get rid of a tax that punishes seniors and discourages work and retirement savings.

关于社会保障改革有很多说法。辩论中被忽略的是对社会保障福利的双重征税。我认为是时候取消一项税收了,它会惩罚老年人,阻碍工作和退休储蓄。
