Every worker pays social security taxes on their earned income, but there is no tax on annual pay above $113,700. Of those workers with earnings above that amount, 100% are high income, roughly 81% are white, and 77% are men. Those who can most afford to contribute to the social security pot are given an unneccesary and costly free ride.
