That assumes the government can come up with the revenue to redeem

We are borrowing money to pay the interest.


When have we not "come up with the money" to honor our debts? Oh yeah,
ever.


Let's see if that lasts forever.
We are still young.


That's right. Only 250 years or so? Ok. You got me there.


If you are going to "fix" SS./MC you need more than simply uncapping
the top limit.

I thought you said MC is uncapped? So, you don't know ****.

MC (HI) is uncapped and still running a deficit but I hear people,
including you saying uncapping OASDI would fix it all.


MC as I've said and everyone else has said has different issues. Keep
repeating if you think it'll help you.

Uncapping SS in wages will certainly help. In any case, it's a long
term problem not a short term one. But in your little mind if the
issue exists it has to be fixed immediately.


It is running a $85 billion dollar deficit and no plan to fix it,. How
is that not an immediate problem?


$85B? Why does that number sound familiar? I know, I know. It's the
big oil subsidy. Eliminate that, and we're good to go. What's more
important, big oil getting money it doesn't need or people getting
their Social Security? Hmmmm....
