        Ok. when you get rid of maximum taxable earnings cutoff & everyone is taxed on all income, then I'll agree to be taxed on health insurance.

        Employers will reduce wages to offset the cost and say total compensation remains the same. Reduce spending & entitlements = lower deficits

        WHAT IF every cent of the payroll tax was put into an individually owned and managed, heritable IRA? We could retire in comfort and dignity.

        Social Security is fundamentally unfair and should not be saved. We can create systems that care for the old that aren't ponzi schemes.

        Instead of increasing taxes how about decrease spending. I pay enough taxes that the bureaucrats in Washington waste.

        Eliminate payroll taxes for a larger take home pay to buy "design your own" health coverage with state minimums just like auto insurance.

        @SpeakerRyan @SenateMajLdr @realDonaldTrump Tax reform must end payroll taxes. Put people in charge to manage their health care.

        Yes we need more tax revenue but not a flat tax that hits the low income workers but brings the progressive rates closer to their past
