I petition the White House to initiate and act with real reform, to fix the fragile and broken social security problem faced today. I recently read that by year 2030, social security will be absolvent (having no more money to pay retirees). That puts me at age 51, no where near being able to retire (unless I win the lottery). Nobody likes paying taxes, but I believe in order to help stave-off or at least try to replenish the "social security fund", the income-cap should be raised to $200,000 AT A MINIMUM, and the percentage raised from 12.4%, to 13%. That only increases an individuals contributory means by 0.3%. I'd rather pay pennies & nickels now, to ensure my thousands of dollars are there for me later. The government has finance people that can calculate how much this will generate..
