"Politicians" don't but Trump does. That's the MAGA way. Try to make

we can ignore each other.

Washington has been exclusively a power struggle game since Obama was
sworn in. The party out of power has no desire to wisely pass or
enforce laws, they just want to top the other side. Neither is

So you're proposing a 5-10% income cut on *some* SSA beneficiaries,
increase the FICA cap "a little" and do you mean apply SSA tax to
investment income?
Income is income. All income types should be taxed at the same rate.
