,i. So, the guy making 500k/year is paying the same social security tax as someone making 102k. WTF? Protect the rich....give them lifeboats....forget the little guy.

you would have an argument if there were no cap on benefits, but the maximum benefit is the same for both people when they earn income at the top soc security tax bracket.

the guy who earns 500k get the same benefit as the guy who earns 110k (or whatever the cap is).
