#Truth and we have paid into it our whole lives. We deserve to get it rather than continuing to push the age for benefits ahead. This is a CUT. WAKE UP, do not take this quietly when it starts. They want to cut our benefits so they can cut their taxes. #TruthMatters #SaveSocialSecurity - ThreadSky

At the current rate, it will be gone by 2035. Which is neat because the government is basically stealing from me. Now it will be gone faster and most people don't have the money to take care of their elderly parents.

What kills me is all they have to do is raise the cap. We pay in from everything we make, they pay in until it hits 168k. It's unfair to the majority of the people, but rich people buy the presidency so...

What's going to happen is they are gonna take away someone's social security who they do not want to cross.

Indicative of the real welfare queens and terrorists you need to worry about, not someone from another country, they're right in your backyard, running multi-billion dollar corporations, and holding office.
Your oppression is their profession

We should have removed the cap decades ago !
Everyone pays, on every part of their income.
It would not hurt high earners.

It pisses me of that this hasn't been done! Republicans have constantly gone after the one thing that allows elderly to have housing/food/stability. It's sick. All so they an their donors can make bigger bucks. It's craven.

I agree !
Just can’t see a logical explanation for this.
It bothered me for a long time.

They just need to raise the cap to like 200,000 a year and that would give us a sufficient to carry for another 30 years.

Social Security is a pre Paid benefit we have the Federal Government managing for us.

Back in the 80’s Politicians learned how to steal from our funds and keep stealing.

Politicians do not rely upon Social Security because they get pensions immediately!

In a crisis, the first thing you do is double the employer contribution. Then you mandate collective bargaining for all work places.

I’m feeling hopeless that anyone in government cares enough because they make enough money that it won’t really affect them
This is truly only damaging to hard working people with no resources
