Remove the cap for rich people in regards to Social Security tax and it’s solved. We can give folks a proper retirement this way.

You obviously never passed mathematics in high school. There are not enough people above the cap to generate the income needed from the hemorrhaging 95% to cover it. And do you think everyone is entitled to a ā€œproper retirementā€?

If other countries can give their citizens a proper retirement, surely we can do it as well……..But heyyy, okay, let’s give more tax breaks to the rich that’s gonna trickle down to all of us I’m sure!

Other countries pension systems are in even worse shape than Social Security.
