If we do nothing, Social Security will be able to payout full benefits until 2037. People only pay SSI taxes on income up to $106,800. Remove that cap, and we'd solve Social Security funding and affect only the richest 6 percent.
Bill Shuster has a lifetime score of 11 percent from Alliance for Retired Americans. He voted for a bill that could cut your Social Security benefits one-third by 2016 - a $5,700 annual benefit cut for the average earner. He voted to give a huge tax cut of $1.1 trillion to the richest Americans.
He voted to cut the Social Security Administration by $1.7 billion in 2011, forcing the agency to furlough workers, reduce office hours and decrease customer service.
Shuster doesn't need Social Security, and he doesn't care about those who do.
Karen Ramsburg promises to keep Social Security intact to ensure senior citizens are not poverty stricken.
