Why should a person pay more yearly than the benefit expected? If they want to raise taxes on income they can do that. No need to disguise it in the form of ridiculous payments to SS.

" Are you referencing the cap on payment into SS as it relates to income?"

Yup; no good reason why Kevin Durant and the Warriors shouldn't be paying taxes on his entire $20M dollar salary, instead of just the first $115K. SS is currently a very regressive tax.

They can raise bennies all they want. There's a very high tax on it, making it means-tested. That money goes back into the SSTF. It's only ridiculous if you're a no-tax republican.
