6. Social Security is a Ponzi scheme. Don’t believe it. Social Security is solvent for the next 26 years. It could be solvent for the next century if we raised the ceiling on income subject to the Social Security payroll tax. That ceiling is now $106,800.

Social Security is now largely funded with new Debt treasury bills. See

7. It’s unfair that lower-income Americans don’t pay income tax. Wrong. There’s nothing unfair about it. Lower-income Americans pay out a larger share of their paychecks in payroll taxes, sales taxes, user fees, and tolls than everyone else.

Payroll taxes are entitlement taxes like SS above. That doesnt pay for itself let alone all the other crap Democrats demand. The other half of Americans need to learn that government is NOT FREE.
