Bernie Sanders: “The cash crunch would end if Congress repealed the Social Security tax cap.”

The American people know that the current economic system is rigged.

Meanwhile, while the rich get richer, millions of Americans cannot afford the basic necessities of life—food, housing, healthcare, and a decent retirement.

And it would prevent over 100,000 Americans from dying unnecessarily each and every year because they cannot make it to a doctor in time.

As a result of Trump’s disastrous cuts to education, an increasing number of seniors are in danger of having their Social Security checks garnished to pay back student loans they took out decades ago. That is beyond unacceptable.
