Also, I personally think that not taxing SS is good thing because people get to keep more of the money.
But increasing the negative from 13% to 30%, makes sense why Pendejo45 is pushing it, to deplete the Trust Fund faster
and then tell people who don't really understand Social Security that SS is now bankrupt.
