Social Security would go broke sooner. He’s a total moron. He’s throwing out random crap to buy votes.
The government is already broke. You didn’t mind when we gave away a couple 100 billion to Ukraine.
You pay at least state, county, social security and medicare taxes on your wages.
How’s social security going broke sooner? Do federal income taxes go into the social security pot?
You’re not a fiscal conservative who wants to fix SS like I am. Trump’s proposal just breaks it completely faster. Of course it would never be allowed to happen. He’s trying to by the votes of a few more dupes.
So, it’s ok to bankrupt the country to support Ukraine. Got it. At least you’re consistently full of sh#t.
Explain how not taxing social security affects the social security fund?
We’d spend multiple times that should Ukraine go down and a NATO country is next. It’s also a tiny fraction of what we spend. And **** you. I have no tolerance or respect for your disrespectful shit. I’ve told you this before. STFU if you can’t discuss things civilly.
You’re just trying to justify your own deficit spending. It’s no different than Democrats doing it for their own pet projects.
I’m not for Trump doing it. I was calling out Aloha for only being fiscally conservative when it suits him. This isn’t difficult. You shouldn’t be for Trump cutting SS taxes or Ukraine spending because they both add to the deficit.
Too bad you couldn’t have gotten your own business going.
No. You don’t get to choose what we spend on. There needs to serious discussion and negotiation to determine that. That you’re personally willing to abandon Ukraine to be conquered by Russia doesn’t make you a fiscal conservative at all.
they should eliminate taxes on ss. this isn't the first time it has been proposed. it was proposed by a D earlier this year in fact. eliminate the taxes and raise the wage base. Biden/harris fcked old people with the bullshit endless free cheese because they're morons. old people on fixed incomes who paid in are getting whacked. throw em a bone. cut the taxes raise the wage base
lol…it’s actually makes me a fiscal conservative. Look if you’re a fiscal conservative it should upset you that governments are stealing from future generations and destabilizing the country through unsustainable debt loads. It’s immoral and wrong. There are always going to be uncertainty and crisis in the world. If the Ukraine war was that important, they should make cuts elsewhere in the budget or raise taxes.
Thanks, did not realize that. Doubt seriously if Trump’s bloviating is any more than increasing the income level at which Social Security is taxable.
Huh? The free cheese was great for old people. They own a majority of the assets, SS increases at the rate of inflation, and they have already paid for their big ticket items that increase at a faster rate than wage increases (Houses, Education, Healthcare).
the ss adjustment doesn't keep up with the col.
i don't have the data to do the math (not that i'd be able to do math) but i suspect raising the wage base would cover the difference
Eliminate the wage cap and Social Security is solvent far into the future. It would be idiotic to turn around and give that away.
why couldn't you have a tax liability scale tethered to the benefit amount. easy. a program.
