wage earner

We can’t start to eliminate the deficit by raising the regressive payroll tax on the back of already overtaxed wage earners.

By contrast, wage earners with employers who withhold income taxes from each paycheck may not have that type of flexibility.

The consumer-price index for urban wage earners and clerical workers, known as CPI-W, is the index used to determine the annual COLA.

Not long before, a single wage earner could support a family.

This is true for both spousal benefits when the higher wage earner is alive and for survivor benefits.
