I've been pounding the drum. TRIANGULATE. Accept that the Left has WON on Social Security and Medicare. EMBRACE the two programs now at the highest levels. Start TAX HIKES at 160K plus for FICA just for starters. Then bump a retirement age for higher skilled professionals. Now two things happen:

1.)You tax the very Liberals who has ruined the country and ridiculed you for a generation. They finally have to cough up the money.

2.)Can you imagine Bernie or AOC having to explain "We can't take people making $160K" when a majority of the country ain't seen $160k in a year?

I'm all for it. I'd just like to see people north of 50 grandfathered into the old system so I don't have to pay for it :).
