The fix is simple, just raise taxes! I pay enough in taxes, I pay for my fair share. I would rather end social security and have a private retirement account. Increasing my taxes, once again just shows what a scam it is.

    Oh. Well, then raising taxes it solves it just as simply and in the exact same way. No more grand Ponzi scheme and puts money into private hands.

      It doesn’t solve anything. It just increases taxes.

      Either that or raise the percentage and let everyone pay more. If you think it has value. You should be willIng to pay more for it. Right now it’s 12.5. Raise it to 20%

          The average American won’t. They just want someone to pay for it. I’d be fine if it was fairly done like increasing it for everyone with no cap.

            If that were true, then raising the cap should be sufficient. But plenty of people who are going need to go with the seals will oppose it all the same.

              No. That is just punishing high income earners. Benefits don’t increase as we pay more. Benefits are static.

              Make everyone pay more is a fair way to fund it.
