What $40 Means to You (Woof!)

    Remember the White House's What $40 Means to You campaign from the Social Security tax holiday debate? (I wrote about it here, here, and here.)  Those who wrote in response provided such answers as:

E.D., Ranch Santa Margarita, CA  

$40 a paycheck covers the gas I use in only one week driving to and from work.
S.J., Haymarket, VA
