JF's remarks notwithstanding, not one of you can point to a permanent solution that doesn't involve trillions in borrowing. It cannot be done.

I would agree to an increase in the cap, with a doughnut between 100K and 250K, a benefit cut of modest size rolled in over a ten year period, no change in eligibility age and a tax incented private (personal) account outside of the SS systems. Don't need bridge funding.
