Bernie Moreno and Elizabeth Warren: Our Plan to Save Social Security

[Happy Hoosier]

6. I mean, fine... but that isn't really a good final fix.

The problem in this country is not really the petty bourgeouis. The doctor or lawyer or engineer making a few hundred K aren't what's killing the country. I mean, sure, raise the cap, that helps. I'll gladly pay more, though I do want to see an appropriate increase in benefits. There are already significant bend points in the benefits, but SS is a pension program, not welfare. For those not familiar with how SS benefits work, look it up.

What we need is way to expand the applicability of the program to those drawing their wealth from awarded assets, not wages. That;s how these mega-rich assholes avoid paying ANY taxes.
