    That's nothing more than a redistribution scheme.

    If somebody is earning the salary that caps them out of contributing to SS, its because they won't be reliant on the program to retire. They won't become a liability on society.

    They want the high wealth earners to contribute, and I'm sure will turn around and say "you don't need to take back an equal proportion of your contribution, that's too much," using their money to fund the program.

    Utter nonsense. The vast majority of Biden voters have no clue what his progressive economic platform is other than maybe some of the young ones heard something about free college and student loan forgiveness.

    There will be whining and gnashing of teeth and more tantrums while trying to blame Trump for everything that happens.

    I honestly wish opting out was easier. I do see your point and it dies make a lot sense and is likely to happen.

    I looked at it and very little in the way specifics other than raising minimum wage to $15 an hour. And this regarding stopping the pandemic; Implement mask mandates nationwide by working with governors and mayors and by asking the American people to do what they do best: step up in a time of crisis.

    That sounds like positively, absolutely, definitely, without a doubt, maybe I'll just ask Americans to wear a mask. You can do better than that Joe.

    Exactly, if it was an progressive economic platform that was the reason, the Democrats would have swept down ballot offices instead of losing seats in the house, losing state legislature and a governorship. Considering Biden won by around 5 million votes, give or take. The GOP down ballot showing was excellent.

    With this mixed bag of results, there wasn't a mandate or an approval of either party's agenda or policies. It was more of a "Let's get rid of Trump, but let's not give the Democrats full, absolute power."

    Yeah, I know. Winning 306-232 with a 5M vote popular vote margin is less than winning 306-232 while losing the popular vote.

    That’s how we got an incompetent fool tweeting and golfing his way through four years.

    If you want Biden specifics you can read many in the 118-page Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Recommendations on Biden's site. For a teaser, change out the entire fleet of 500,000 school buses to American made-- or mad, if you will -- zero emission vehicles in five years.

    Oh, don't distract the Biden Haters for any known facts by showing the easily available information on the President-elect's programs.

    I am awaiting now for the Republicans' "expose" that Biden was born in Nigeria and thus the election must be voided, and of course Trump will gallantly stand-in until the next election!
