• Answer:

  Put your rant in the political section. Any of the smart people on here can see that your numbers are bogus, and the question is nonsensical - - as you veer into Amy being a shy girl etc, which has no bearing on taxes whatsoever. Ditto her height and activity in the Sailor Scouts. ... and an IQ of 300 is a bit of a stretch. FYI SS taxes in 2010 were 7.65% for a wage earner, and double that (before a credit) for an independent worker. If you want a real discussion, come in with some real numbers and calculations.
