Since when does proving a bad idea IS a bad idea -—
STOP the bad idea?
Yes, you are right.
It IS a bad idea.
NO, you are wrong -—
It will happen anyway!
No, you are wrong. There is not the political will or the votes to do it. The Dems would be committing political suicide by voting to lift the cap entirely nor would they vote to tax all SS benefits. AARP would torpedo any such efforts that would tax all SS benefits. Less than one-third of the current SS beneficiaries pay taxes on their benefits.
