Two EASY things:<br /><br />1) Eliminate the cap on earnings/income subject to Social Security taxation; not merely raise it, but end the cap altogether;<br /><br />2) Prevent the SocSec trust fund from being used for purposes other than underwriting benefits for recipients.<br /><br />I reckon that'd do it.Woody (Tokin Librul/Rogue Scholar/ Helluvafella!)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205896988142798901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140506531679956515.post-84788444675469940702010-02-13T22:44:59.361-07:002010-02-13T22:44:59.361-07:00Woody,

If I'm in the wrong place, then let's part with mutual 'fuck-yous' and move on. If not, however, I have a question:<br /> What would be your idea for fixing Social Security? I scour the Wingnut blogs and all do is bitch without proposing any solutions. This isn't a flame, just an honest question.<br />-KurtAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140506531679956515.post-23882195897025145272010-02-11T07:16:42.132-07:002010-02-11T07:16:42.132-07:00Charles, I concur.

Nay, it is the duty of the people.<br /><br />As soon as we recover from the Superbowl party and the Oscars and March Madness are over, and it warms up a bit, I'm sure the Murkin people by the millions will march on Washington and throw Shamwow and the Sham Corporongress out on their ears.
