IOW, kill all investments so people with money will take it to other countries where you can’t get at it, the SS will not get any expansion..........
You can’t fix stupid.
Socialist Sanders, go move to your bribed “vacation home” and STHU. You are beyond a fool.
These morons NEVER LEARN.
People with money to invest will not sit idly by and let the government take it from them. They will move it off shore and into diversified holdings and wait until the greedy Dems get creamed again................
Raise Taxes, Import Muslims and low-skill third-worlders.
That’s pretty much the plan.
At those tax rates, I can move mine into tax privileged bonds. Smaller returns, but it avoids the tax and sticks it to the marxist a-holes.
Uh, OK.
When we get these ILLEGAL ALIENS off our systems, then SS will increase...when we bring JOBS back into the United States for Real Americans, then SS will increase...when we get the wall built, so we don't have invaders, then SS will increase...
This is NOT a FREE Country, you come in on a LEGAL visa, and become a Citizen of this Country and then work and pay taxes and assimilate to OUR laws and OUR way of life, if you don't like that, then STAY OUT!!!
No, but you can kick it in the face and make it go away.
Three months ago they were selling the idea that Social Security was on the cusp of going broke.
Now they want to expand it.
I don’t know if the SS retirement and disability benefit funds are separate? But they could certainly cull down the SS disability roles and tighten up the eligibility again. IIRC, the number of SSDI benefit recipients has skyrocketed under 0bama.
The Dems always see the economics as a static situation when it never is. They assume that just because they pass some tax bill that penalizes the rich that the rich will just sit there and take it.
Just a couple of days ago, the ‘sugar’ tax in Philly as example. The mayor was astounded that the tax that was levied on the beverage industry was PASSED ON TO THE CONSUMER! He was angry that the corporations would do such a thing!. He is a complete and utter fool..................
If 62% of the added revenue goes to one trust fund and 9% goes to another trust fund, where does the other 29% go?
We are $20,000,000,000,000 in Debt. We shouldn’t be “expanding” anything.
We should be cracking down on SS Disability Fraud and Medicare Fraud instead.
Giving Alcoholics, Druggies and everyone who is stressed out by Life SS Disability is ridiculous. All I see whenever I watch Daytime TV are Ads from SS Disability Lawyers. There is a serious problem when that is happening.
Never see the people in those Ads giving Testimonials sitting in a Wheelchair or missing Limbs. Ridiculous.
So, tax retirements funds to pay for retirement funds...just BRILLIANT./s
Let me get this straight. Social Security is going broke and Sanders wants to expand it. Oh my, talk about brain dead.
The reason Social Security is in trouble is (other than them raiding the fund) that it has been expanded into areas it was never meant/designed to go. They just love throwing good money after bad in an attempt to buy votes from those who pay nothing....
Amazing how people who’ve never had to make a payroll can tell others what to do with their money just so they can stay in the sinate.
