I was trying to make a point - she wasn’t contributing $$$ into the system.

It could be argued that the wife's duties at home (keeping house, raising children, etc., etc.) freed her husband to work more hours, earn more income, and contribute more into the system.

There's NO contribution into the SS system - let's get real. There's a salary cap on SS. The more income from one worker doesn't fly.

My wifes home - give me more hours. Sure!
