JF, Raise the FICA tax to $200K, problem solved. You said you supported that.
I do, actually. Maybe you misread the tone of my post.
As for asking what Jesus said, I'll confess that I wasn't being sincere. I apologize for that.
Anyway, Jesus said, "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to enter heaven." At first glance, it suggests that no rich man could ever go to heaven, but right afterwards, Jesus says, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." It all depends on who or what you worship, God or money.
So what does this have to do with Social Security? Not a whole lot, unless you happen to oppose it because you think, "What's mine is mine, and no one has the right to take MY hard-earned money." Or you happen to support it because you think, "I put my money into this system, and I have the right to demand the benefits that is rightfully MINE."
It's all about what we're "entitled" to (notice the quotes).
