I support it. and it could be lifted to 200,000 and at 4 per cent instead of 6 per cent from 200,000- 250,000.Cannonpointer » 14 Mar 2023, 6:05 pm » wrote: ↑ Would that be a magic bullet, and do you support it?
Would other adjustments still need to be made?
There IS the spectre of thee wealthy subsiding out the less so - and you're good with that? They won't be - but there are less of them, and they're equally nobodies with the rest of us, so they'll just have to take it.jerrab » 14 Mar 2023, 6:30 pm » wrote: ↑ I support it. and it could be lifted to 200,000 and at 4 per cent instead of 6 per cent from 200,000- 250,000.

Joe Biden co-sponsored a bill to increase Socialist Security retirement age.Xavier_Onassis » 14 Mar 2023, 12:27 pm » wrote: ↑ They have both announced that the retirement age should be raised and the payouts should be reduced.
Both of them are at the stage where they need to hit up their wealthy GOP contributors for the Big Bucks, and of course, the one thing that their fatcat buddies want to avoid is paying more into Social Security and Medicaid. Mitch is sitting on tons of money and not up the reelection. Trump also has a lot of funds, but Haley and Pence are not funded and have to convince the rich pals to contribute.
It's always different when liberals do it.Biden co-sponsored a bill in 1984 a plan that included freezing the Social Security cost-of-living adjustment for that year and proposed in 1996 raising the retirement age by one year to 68, according to CNN.
it is not my main focus, however if someone decides that someone making 50 billion dollars a year should not get social security it would not break my heart- however they should be able to keep medicare.
