People pay the tax for Social Security purposes in the assumption that they'll be getting money back later. This bill would essentially change that specialized tax into simply more taxes on what they earn by moving the Social Security money into other government functions (I assume that this is what would happen). If we want to raise taxes on the weathier people in Atlasia, the least we could do is be upfront about our intentions instead of sort of getting it through the backdoor through this maneuver.
I could support this if it also said that those with incomes above $75,000 or a household income above $140,000 no longer pay into the Social Security fund and that those who already have paid into it can get back what they have paid, but not as it is right now - and that most likely would not have the effect of raising revenue, as I assume this bill is meant to do.
