voBoe sais “EAL Personal Retirement Accounts: A Real Tax Cut For Working Families (NAPSA)—It is estimated that almost 75 percent of working Americans pay more to Uncle Sam in the form of payroll taxes than they do in income taxes, according to the Council for Government Feform (GR) a oradgaranta achn. cacy organization seeking respon- sible and limited government. For most Americans, this means that the average $200,000 they pay over their career into Social Seenrity is the biggest investment they will make in their lives. Whatrate of return can they expect to get back from that investment? Absolutely nothing if changes aren't made soon, say many experts. Social Security faces a demographic crisis in the forra of 76 million baby-boomers approaching retirement. Tf nothing is done, payroll taxes will skyrocket and benefits will plummet. President Bush has proposed strengthening the system by allowing younger workers the option of saving a portion of their payroll taxes in a personal retirement account that they own and control. MostAmericans agree. The Council for Government Reform has launched a grass- roots campaign to Jump-Start America’s Retirement Future, urging Congress and the President to give working Americans the opportunity and responsibility to choose their future.
