    I used to believe they would never let it happen. After this year, I would believe anything.
    I never thought people would actually be considering defunding police.

    The wealthy are an easy target so it's likely that they'll raise or eliminate the cap so that they can steal more of our money. This year it's $137,700. After that, SS takes no additional tax. Naturally, of course, there will be no increase in benefits. At $137,700, the earner will have contributed $8,537.40 and his/her employer an equal amount on his/her behalf.
