Lifting the payroll cap will not touch the problem. It will simply increase the amount of benefits owed. The next shoe to drop is a 20% increase in payroll tax, "for the good of all concerned."

Why is it every modern Bernie since the 80’s has been a giant POS

Social Security is a Ponzi scheme that was absolutely set up for the young and working to fund the old. This isn’t novel, this is the blueprint

No non citizen should get one dime from the government. If they don’t like it, they can go back from where they came. This isn’t complicated.

I think they mean lift the cap but don’t increase benefits

Considering SS's structure as US Debt Obligation, untethering contributions from benefits would be a bridge too far in terms of 14th Amendment compliance.

Well, they better come up with something because they made a deal with us that we didn’t even want.

They took our fricking money from the first paycheck to the last and I want it back with full interest.

And in fact, if I outlive my contribution with interest, I still want my monthly check because that was the fricking deal.

And before you try to condescendingly proclaim that I should’ve saved for retirement and not have to depend on Social Security That’s not the point at all.
I don’t need it, but it’s my fricking money and the deal was I was going to get it back.

So if you young dumb fricks voted in people who stole all the money then it’s not my fricking problem. You have to pay it back. Yes you have to pay me. Because that was the deal My government made with me and if my government reneges on this deal, then I am done with the United States of America just as I am done with Baton Rouge Louisiana.

nd the payroll tax cap so everyone pays the same

Ok, then give me more benefits reflective of my increased contribution to the non existent "lockbox." Oh you won't? frick right off.

Life sucks, get a helmet, but end this shite for future generations, even at our generation's expense.

That would be fantastic!

Unfortunately, the beneficiary would have to consent ... and he won't do it. As there is but one SS beneficiary, Uncle Sam, and he will never give up the cheap money SS provides him, we're stuck.

It's a ponzi scheme. It's always at the expense of young people. I started getting taken 50 years ago. I'll never live long enough to get back what I put in.
