FDR, pointed out that unless the rich and middle class get the benefit the benefit will be under funded. Thus FDR opposed any income cap, for it would lead to Social Security being underfund. FDR pointed out that welfare is underfunded because the rich and middle class did not see themselves ever using that benefit.

That is the reason the fight has always been over the issue of capping the benefit. Everyone knows that if Social Security is income based the support for Social Security will decline to the support welfare has , I.e. no support. That lack of support will permit Congress to merging Social Security into welfare without any increase in money for welfare and Social Security taxes being eliminated. Thus killing Social Security.

FDR knew the above and so do most politican on both side of the issue. Thus this is were the war to kill and save Social Security is being fought.
