Thirty years down the road there may be a temporary shortfall of Social Security funds. That could, and ethically should be eliminated with "Scrap the Cap" \ "Lift the Lid" policy to remove the tax welfare given to tax payers with incomes over the current SS tax ceiling of $106,800. Why should incomes above that amount not be taxed?
Regressive taxation is immoral. This great appeasement with a minority of obstructionists holding the budget process hostage is unconscionable and a huge political error which will disenfranchise progressive energy. Passionately encourage President Obama to run from his intended policy of a chained CPI to "fix" SS.
Demand that President Obama represent the progressive philosophy which elected him. Pledge to withdraw your support if he does not.
