1. That makes the most sense
Scrapping the cap is the easiest and fairest way to keep Social Security solvent and fully funded going forward.

I'm confused. I've been told all these years that people deserve Social Security because they paid into it. It's theirs.

If you pay into something and it's yours, why do you need other people - especially people who won't be using it - to pay into it for you?

1, For how many Congresses since Social Security was passed have the Dems controlled Congress and not done this. Physician heal thyself.

2. If the ceiling on the Social Security tax is lifted, will the ceiling on Social Security payments also be lifted? Or is this demand merely screw-the-rich economic envy?

Never mind, to ask is to answer.
