    Exactly. SS is the easiest problem in DC to solve.

    They don’t have to remove the cap, just raise it. Right now, it’s around $167K. Just raise it to $250K, or $500K, or $1 million. That would make it solvent again for decades.

        Perhaps, but I like the idea of raising it incrementally, because then we get the chance to watch the super-wealthy cry about how the poor get all the breaks.
