I decided to begin taking my SS payments at full retirement age because of WEP. Currently, I still working for the state of Nevada as a licensed educator and will receive a pension. I worked in the private industry before I began working as an educator for the state of Nevada. I’ve been working for the State of NV for the last 26 years where I did not pay into Social Security. I have enough months from working in NY where I paid into Social Security. But . . . Social Security will take most if not all of my Social Security benefits once I begin receiving my pension from the State of Nevada. So . . . Currently, I’m receiving my full Social Security benefits while I am still working as a teacher and have not retired from the State of Nevada. I paid Social Security while working in New York. My point is . . . it’s unfair to penalize me for the time I worked in NY and paid into the system. Currently, WEP will take All of my Social security because my pension will be more than half of my Social Security benefits.

how about they just increase the max earnings taxable for social security instead of ripping off the small guy by keeping this silly policy going
