1. Raise the FICA cap, maybe to $150K

Which would amount to a major tax increase, and not even the old Democratic standby of going after the super wealthy but rather a tax increase on well off working people.

Change the COL adjustment to an average of wage/price inflation.

Either that or just price inflation.

Raise the FICA tax by 1% on both employer and employee sides.

And raise the cap? You really do want to raise taxes don't you. I might accept raising the cap in return for a lowering of rates.
