Let’s take this a step further.
Since you all want no cap at all ,the sky’s the limit then.
That means at some wage point the wage earner is paying more a year into SS than the maximum annual benefit they could ever receive.
Please explain how this then is any kind of benefit for them.

Study Finds the Rich Live Longer Than the Poor
A new medical study published in JAMA about contributing factors to living longer, finds people with higher net worths may outlive poorer peers.
#1 Can't asnwer directly. I said the cap should be doubled or raised (IMHO) to $500K not no cap at all.
#2 Wealthier people (as a population, excluding individual anecdotal stories) tend to live longer, meaning they draw benefits for more years.
