⚡️🇺🇸 WATCH - Murray: Is it true that people making under $184k pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate?

Dahl: Yes

Murray: And the rate for someone making $1 million?
Dahl: 2.2%

Murray: So, a 12.4% tax for people making less than $184k, but 2.2% for a millionaire or .0002% for billionaires.

This is retarded. Social Security pays back according to what you pay into it. You pay less, you get less, regardless if his much you make. So billionaires pay less and get less, which nobody cares about because billionaires don't need social security.

Terrible take. There is a max amount you pay. At some point you get to stop. For some that means a higher % of income, so what. Someone making $92k pays 12%. Someone making $358k pays 6%. The person paying 6% actually contributes twice as much!
