    false you said if we turn it into a tax on people who will never receive benefit for it we can continue to transfer wealth from the people who earned it to the people who didn't.

    That ceases to be Social security.

    so completely abolished the concept of social security and just make it into another entitlement program.

    Still stupid idea.
    good hopefully the system will die it shouldn't have ever existed in the first place.

    Good. Social security was never intended to be a payroll tax. It was meant to be a form of pay in, them receive benefits.

    There is already Medicare, SS was never intended to be extra Medicare. I'm against making it so.

    What you already have that covered in Obamacare, what happened? The only thing that's changed is that if you CHOOSE NOT TO PARTICIPATE, we don't fine you. Every single citizen can sign up even with pre existing conditions. I think it needs to be fixed in other ways to help those that are poor and not getting it for free, like catastrophe policies for young Americans etc. If you price people out they won't participate and that would've easily been covered with a catastrophe policy. Bottom line is we have a bunch of insurance now for things we don't use and deductible are so high now to make policies affordable and this makes regular visits all out of pocket...

    So, Democrats vote to break House rules and decorum, so that they can call Trump out on decorum. Surreal.

    How can this be true. If this was true, there would have been ZERO payouts for thirty years after the program started as no one would have funded their own payouts. You are lying, or just ignorant.

    How much do blind kids pay in? Why do they get SS benefits?

    You don't understand that you would have to increase benefits as well on those paying over 12k? Or again are you saying the middle class gets to foot the bill and get no increase in benefits. It's real simple, anything paid above 12k with no additional benefit will effectively be a major tax cut on the middle class, good luck selling that one.

    As part of yesterday's rollout, Sanders released a white paper with several "options" on how to raise the additional revenue it would take for the government to pay for everyone's health care without any premiums or out-of-pocket costs.

    • While most people's taxes would go up, the wealthy would end up paying for a much greater portion of the nation's health care system than they currently do.
    • A 4% "income-based premium" for workers who make more than $29,000 and a 7.5% "income-based premium" on employers (exempting the first $2 million in payroll) are two of the financing options. Most economists assume that the employer tax would get passed onto employees through lost wages.
    • Other options include increasing the individual tax rate on high earners, taxing "unearned" income at the same rate as earned, and establishing a wealth tax.
    https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.ax...581-63b00213-f543-49e0-8a40-261ec220e37e.html

    So your solution for people going bankrupt on health care Care is to make more people go bankrupt........

    4% on people making an absurd 29k and an employer tax that would surely get passed onto the worker. While we're living in a travel trailer at least we won't be dead, well wanna be though...

    Oh and if we could get Uber rich to pay why wouldn't they have already done it ?

    You could wish that, but the 'impact' of it all might be greater if you wrote, "you're", instead of "your". Ah, how American public education has gone straight downhill in the past 35 years.... :spin:
