Do you think a laborer who makes $150,000 a year with overtime is being overpaid?

57. What would benefit you and just about everyone else would be if you made more income

That is what I am saying. If more people were currently making the $150 grand, or close to it, instead of the $30 grand you are making there would be no problem fully funding every social program we currently have. Because the more they make the more those workers would be paying into FICA and other tax withholding every week. The less less they make the less money there is to fund these programs. If we had more workers paying FICA up to the current maximum today there would be no problem funding SS and Medicare. There would be extra money left over if that were the case.

It is the workers who are satisfied with making $30 grand a year and become jealous of those making more and want to take away some of theirs instead of increasing their own who screw up everything for all of us.

I am promoting that workers like yourself make more money in your paycheck which in turn gives us all more money and better benefits. You appear to want to keep taking it away from any workers who make more than you do until we are all broke. And that is exactly the mindset that got us into the predicament we are currently in.
