Note also that eliminating the social security tax cap while keeping benefits capped only fixes about 55-60% of social security’s long term shortfall, and within 4 years of such a tax change passing, SS would be back into running deficits.
It also would raise marginal tax rates *beyond* their revenue maximizing rate in states such as California and Illinois.
It’s absurd

If tweet fails to load, click here. I was telling/warning people years ago the federal government, probably under DSA control was going to lift the cap on payroll taxes for Social Security and Medicare along with means testing each household's net worth to determine how much SS and medicare benefits you'll receive.
Is this inevitable? To be honest 10-15 years ago I would have said slim chance but today It's not too far fetched to see it happen.

He’s one of them. Is he gonna pay his fair share? No, because he will have a government loophole that excludes him.

Bernie bitched about millionaires for years until someone explained that he was one, the next day he changed to bitching about billionaires.

You should look at the plan via AI. I'm old enough to be getting Required Minimum Distributions in 2028. While I thought this would progressively tax these as they got larger, this Sanders plan does not tax RMD. It is for you currently working people. RMD are taxed via the federal income e tax but not Bernie's proposal.
Any outside of RMDs may be taxed. I really don't know.

Bernie is considered top 1% is he going to pay more? Why hasnt he already done that.
Posted on 11/8/26 at 8:44 pm to HailHailtoMichigan!
Why not an extra 2400.00 per month? 150.00 minimum wage and so forth.

The cap should have been removed years ago. There is no Medicaid cap.
They do need to restrict people drawing Social Security who aren’t paying into it.
