"not bright enough to figure out that that's all it's going to cost them in the end." That sounds like you are asserting that just kicking in an extra few bucks a year is all it is going to cost me in the end. I don't believe that for a second. I believe every time we blindly accept that we just need to kick in a few extra bucks we make it that much easier to take more bucks later. But maybe that's because I'm not bright enough to figure it out.

Note: I'm not against the intent of the program but I am definitely against raising taxes to fund it.
Some people around here are convinced we are not paying our fair share.
