You forgot to mention the Federal tax for medicare which is 2.9% with

I just noticed you said 70 year olds. If you are 70 years old, you are my
elder by three years. I thought you were a young fellow. In that case,
if I referred to you as a pip-squeak or idiot or whatever, I apologize.

without using the common words I am used to hearing and understand.
