ah..true, i didn't think of that.. but you'd of course have to sell that to the right..uncapped wages are easy to start the revenue ball rolling.lifting the wage cap still wont do it, since most of the wealthy dont get their money through wages.
i have proposed before, requiring all US companies to contribute the SS tax for their foreign employees, as if they were in fact working in the US.
thus offshoring your employees would not offshore the liability for the SS tax.
this would be 4% less incentive to move jobs overseas.
wish it were as easy as a decision between parties as it was between you and i
