Connolly: "The fallacy of Musk's argument is they never look at revenue. They only look at expenditures. If you want to save social security, it's a fairly easy fix. Raise income threshold subject to withholding tax & you can extend social security by 40 to 50yrs. He doesn't want to talk about that"

Raising the income cap will allow it to be at 100% for 40-50 years, where it might drop slightly again.
You can only assume, as he's f*ckin' everyone else, that our turn will come as well !
“ . . . a fairly easy fix . . . “
“ raise income threshold subject to withholding tax”
That’s some revisionist history right there. The far left abandoned Obama in 2010, because he couldn’t fix the American healthcare system of 50-60 years in 2 years.
The right wing to this day are still running around saying ACA isn’t Obamacare.
Any hotel owner should understand you make more money in the long run by renting out rooms than selling the property for a quick gain today.

It's we lose our health care and services or we tax the billionaires more.
Elon storms with DOGE and they destroy the kitchen.
It was a rare time that I didn't vote for the Democrat.
“False”
“Misinformation”
And the hilarious “untruth”
It lies; LIES! They’re telling lies.
Stop sugarcoating the discussion.
They have been gunning for Social Security for as long as Connolly has been alive. There has never, ever been anything "inferred" about it. Jackass.
Untrue about Social Security.

Democrats should never pass the opportunity to remind people that Trump blew up the debt. He broke his promise paid for the tax breaks by closing loopholes and he increased spending.
He's going to do that again.
Maybe they don't really want to solve problems and never did? Maybe they're acting in bad faith? 🤔
Trump and Musk already have our Military, Enemies, Drones, SSN#, Bank Information, Law Enforcement, Navy, Air Force, Clandestine Operatives
America, 🇺🇸
Do we go to work on Monday?
I believe we are at the “drop our wrenches and walk off this Job site” part of history 👏
Payoff:
Original: ~75-90% gap closed, ~2075.
Now: ~90-105% gap closed (progressive tax +5-10%, delay +5-10%, AI +2-3%). Could hit 2080-2090, overshooting 2075 by a comfy margin.
New Plan:
Tax income over $400,000 at 13.4%, jump to 15.4% above $1M (progressive kick).
Cut $10B fraud + $5B more with AI prevention.
Retirement age to 68, plus 10% bonus for waiting to 70.
Tax rate to 13.4% for all.
After that everything is irrelevant.
JFC.
They had a vote for the lead position like they always do.
Also they're in the minority so the seat doesn't actually give any power.

It’s almost like she has to be a politician and learn to build relationships or something.🤔
Or, just eliminate income tax and FICA for those earning less than $150k single filers/ $300k MFJ, add the investment tax after, and implement a sales tax except essentials.
I suggest everyone does the same. I can't imagine having SS as my sole source of retirement income and couldn't even 45 years ago.
I ❤️ you.
Sincerely.
Politically, I sometimes think framing things in “tax payer money” is ok tactics
But ultimately, I think it’s a better political tactic to just say our just prints money

How about everyone cut their mortgage pmt this month. Tell the Trump donor Bank CEO's:
"We're just following orders."
How about 'force Elon Musk to sell everything he owns, use that to repair some of the damage he's done, and keep him in prison until all the assets he's hidden have been liquidated'.
Connolly,
I wish him
well!💙🦋
