The tax is capped because benefits are capped

The cap gets adjusted every year. I'd rather them further increase the cap than raise the %
That is like one choosing his own method of execution. Lethal Injection might be deemed preferable to Drawing-and-Quartering. But at day's end, both lead to the same conclusion.

Man what a terrible take. There is no reason to place a cap on the tax in the first place. If a cap had never been in place, the system would be completely solvent.

This may not completely fix the issue but it doesn't hurt it.


If government hadn't used the SS "Trust Fund" as a blue-light special loan for decades, it wouldn't be a problem. However, paying interest that is generally below the rate of inflation is nothing but a skimming racket.
