Raise the cap on earnings subject to Social Security taxes
Currently capped at $118,000. Which means U.S. Senators and Representative don't pay SS taxes on any of their salary above $118k . That means nearly $60,000 / yr is free of SS tax. Raise the cap to $1,000,000 or $10,000,000 or $100,000,000. Whatever it takes to "save" Social Security.

I'm NOT a Trump supporter. Or for that matter a GOP voter.....
... but when I look at the list of conservative authors my first response is these are the nuts that have brought on most of the rancor in the country. Pushing right wing crazy ideas and the likes of Sarah Palin. They have no credibility to whine about where Trump fails. They built the environment that has allowed him to thrive.
