Social security isn’t exactly “starved”. There is a massive trust fund to keep paying benefits in full after payroll taxes start falling short in 20 years. Raising taxes on working people right now is bad economics because that reduces demand for goods and services at a time when millions of Americans are out of work. I wouldn’t oppose raising it again once we get back to full employment.
Is there really an actual Trust Fund?
