46. did you read the thread?
Folks making under $50,000 would pay not payroll taxes....they would still get SS at the end though.

Folks making $50,000 to $97,500 would remain as they are currently.

Folks making $97,501 to $250,000 would be indexed to have a small increase that increases the more one makes.

Folks making $250,001 or more would feel an increase because their earnings would not be capped to be tax by SS.

Social Security is SS.

Trillion dollar increase would be felt by those making $250,000 and more.

Payroll tax cut would be felt the most by those making $50,000 and less.

You can decide who the "hardworking Americans" are.

This is Hillary Clinton playing on the ignorance and fear of voters. In essence, doing the GOP's work by calling a Democratic candidate a Tax and spend Democrat. Using GoP stereotypes.
