Will guest workers participate in Social Security?

[trogdor]

Will they be required to pay into the SS system, and will their employers be required to pay matching contributions?

THIS is the question (one of them, anyway) we should be asking the administration when this travesty goes to the Congress.

It's a lose-lose, really. If they are eligible to participate, they will be a further drain on the system. If not, employers will get to pocket the 7.3% or whatever, and this will provide an incentive to use any BS excuse that will fly to place more and more jobs into the category of "jobs Americans don't want (tm)."
