No, eliminate the income cap on taxable earnings and stop spending current funds on other programs instead

This answer aligns with anti-capitalist ideology, as it proposes eliminating the income cap on taxable earnings, which would increase the amount of revenue collected from wealthier individuals.

Disagree

Yes, people are now living longer than when the program was created

Strongly disagree

Yes

Very strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer to privatize it instead

Privatizing Social Security goes against anti-capitalist ideology, as it would shift the responsibility of providing retirement benefits from the government to private entities. Anti-capitalists generally oppose privatization of public services, as they believe it can lead to exploitation and reduced access for low-income individuals.
