I no longer pay into Social Security. Social Security payments are taken
out of employed persons wages.

You're paying the government and the government pays John.

That's incorrect. Disability comes from Social Security funds.
Joan no longer pays into that.
Her Federal and State taxes pay for other things.

Ok, John drives on roads. Who pays for those roads and their
maintenance? Joan.

John was ****ing and moaning a few weeks ago about having to buy some
sort of sticker for his wind-up car. He's also paying for road maintenance
with that sticker. They're not going to let electric cars get off scot-free and
use the roads and streets without some sort of contribution.

Apples and oranges. John's pay comes from SS.
John's local road maintenance comes from MO taxes.
Joan only helps pay for the federal roads, like Interstates.

Yep! Social Security deductions are taken from an employees wages and
put into an account from which that person can start drawing once they
reach a certain age. Kuthe is confusing "disability" with Social
Security. That's a whole different thing.

Again, disability is handled by and paid for with Social Security funds.
If his patient's care is paid for by disability, then SS is paying John
for his work there. Indirectly through his nursing company.
