JF, > No, you don't. If you raise the cap some and raise the percentage by say 1/2 point ... ... then you'd be raising the future liability of SS for those who paid more. Unless you want to cap their benefits, but hey, if you want people who can afford it to pay more and get less, why not make SS a true "welfare for the elderly" program? > The Bush thing would have added a $trillion in debt. This is a perfect example of FUD spread by those who fear any change to SS. The debt already takes into account the fact that the SS "surplus" is being looted every year. Diverting some of the SS tax toward private accounts just means that there will be less looting going on, but the rate at which the debt increases doesn't change. Tenchusatsu
