Amen brother. I fell the same way. In all fairness it is congress that passed the law. The IRS just does the dirty work. I spent near 30 years as a tax consultant. . Believe me, the IRS does plenty of dirty work. I intend to write my congressman and senator to see if they can do something about the social security taxation with the next tax bill. Even worse, my wife worked for the for a state agency for awhile in addition to working for the private sector and took early retirement. They reduced her social security benefit to which she was entitled because of her work with the state. That, plus paying tax on money we paid tax on when we earned it is a double whamy.
It was congress and Clinton that started taxing SS benefits.
