Social Security Administration
From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history
The Social Security Administration is a United States government agency that aids American citizens "with retirement, disability, and survivors benefits and, Social Security is one of the most successful anti-poverty programs in our nation's history."[1]
Social Security benefits are funded through payroll deductions. Employees and employers pay this tax. Every working person that has a Social Security Number will have a small percentage withheld by their employer and submitted each payroll period to the Federal government.
