They'll wreck SS, you'll still pay the 6.5% payroll tax, but those funds will now go to Elon Musk [View all]

That is the simple message we have to get across. Rs want to redirect the SS payroll taxes we all pay into the pockets of the billionaires. Those taxes will no longer fund programs for the general public. Has any R proposed ending the payroll deduction for SS? Don't think so.

Am I wrong?
