What Are Taxes And Best Benefits of File Taxes Each Year? 2023 | CIO Women Ma...CIOWomenMagazine
While we primarily consider them once a year during tax season, we deal with them often throughout the year. In addition to the benefits of file taxes on our income, we also have to pay taxes on the things we buy and the property we own. Total annual expenditures in the United States for these things add up to billions of dollars and include everything from Social Security and the military to garbage collection and park maintenance.
This presentation covers national legislative update and state updates specific to employers headquartered in Oregon, Washington, and Montanta. Additionally, we will address recent events including the potential impact of the new tax plan on employee benefits, EEOC wellness rules updates and updates to the ACA.

Topic: should the U.S Tax Social Security income ceilings for contributions be raised?
If the U.S Tax Social Security income ceiling or the contribution base is increased, this means that there will be an increase in the maximum social security tax to be collected from an individual worker. Thus, the Social Security changes determine the contribution base based on the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners. The contribution base thus determines the cost of living adjustment applied to the recipients. If there is no increase in the contribution base, then the consumer price index for urban wage earners remains the same as well as the cost of living. In U.S., the social security income benefits increases automatically in every year as long as the same (increase) is attributed in the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, from the third quarter of the previous year to the corresponding period of the present year (Internal Revenue Service, 2010). However, this was not the case in the year 2010 because there was no change in the Consumer Price Index for the Urban Wage Earners. This means that the individual’s social benefits remain the same. This is because the social security Act prohibits an increase in the contribution base (Social Security’s Maximum Taxable Earnings). From the past, the contribution base increase was justified by the desire to achieve an improved system of financing as well as maintain meaningful benefits for the higher and middle earners.
The advantage of raising the contribution base is that the social security benefits will be put on a more stable footage. This means that more people will benefit from the program especially the future generation. However, requiring high income generators to contribute more on the benefits may be received with mixed reactions with some viewing the program as less equitable. Other reason to increase the contribution base beyond the wage indexed levels is to reflect the growing earning inequalities and help restore the financial balance (Livingston, 2008). However, according to the statistics, 53 percent of the American people would prefer to raise the contribution base in order to ensure social security’s solvency. This will require raising the income tax cap from the current limit on social security contribution from 110,000 dollars (the current limit) to more than 250,000 dollars (the proposed limit).
Since the amendments were enacted in the year 1977, the contribution base has risen automatically with an increase in average wages. The current proposal to further increase the contribution base tend to emphasis the rationa.
Case Simulation: Assessing HK's Mandatory Provident Fund for RetirementMark Raygan Garcia
Hong Kong's Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF) is a retirement protection scheme started in 2000. While the MPF may prove relatively sufficient to middle- and high-income households, its potential to generate sufficient accrued benefits for retirement until average life expectancy of 80 does not cover at least 30% of Hong Kong people.
• The public believes that welfare is anti-work and anti-family.
• Polls show that the public wants welfare reform in ways that don’t penalize children.
• Welfare recipients find the system demoralizing; most would prefer to work.
• Experts note that welfare has done little to stem the growth of poverty among children.
• Welfare benefits are insufficient to move a family above the poverty line.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

2. Washington State’s Legislature sets the
“benchmark”, which is the hourly rate per
assessed & provided hour to be used for direct
care staff wages, associated taxes & benefits
Contracted Community Residential Supported
Living Program Providers must account for all
hours and dollars spent, and return all funds not
used for intended purposes
3. Since 2005, the Benchmark has increased only
4.3% (from $14.55 to $15.18)
In that same period of time, Minimum Wage in
Washington State, based on the cost of living, has
increased by 23% (from $7.35 to $9.04)
The Benchmark pays not only wages, but also
associated taxes & benefits for direct care staff
Average wage for entry level staff was $9.98 for
July 2009-June 2010 (before last benchmark cut)
Minimum wage is now $9.04 per hour
4. Typical Benchmark Spending composition
18% Direct Care Staff Wage
Taxes:
16% Federal, State, L&I, Une
mployment
66% Benefits: Paid Time
off, Medical, Dental, 401
(k), EAP
5. Health Care costs increasing – fewer providers
can afford to offer health care
As the economy recovers and unemployment
goes down, it will become even harder to attract
and retain quality staff
Average turnover rate for Community Residential
Supported Living Programs is already quite high.
July 2009 – June 2010 average turnover for all
providers was 39.3%
