Comments

1. Velvet Phantom: That's not exactly a surprise - sounds like someone finally remembered people actually contribute to the system
2. Milan: a small tax hike is a tiny price to pay for avoiding drastic cuts
3. Felix: about time they considered what's left in the pot 🙄
4. Iris: finally some bipartisan sense on SS reform - about time politicians focused on fair solutions instead of just trying to avoid tough cuts
5. Onyx Rune: like that's gonna happen, congressional math doesn't work like magic ✂️
6. Diego: it's almost like they're acknowledging that cutting benefits isn't exactly a viable solution anymore
7. Cobalt Cipher: payroll tax? that's just patching a hole, what about real reform?
8. Marek: it seems like a pretty obvious solution to me but still feels like the ultimate band-aid
