How, exactly, is paying for the program passing the buck? I offered a solution of raising the income limit to which current SSI tax witholding applies. Are you saying that that won't actually fund the program for 75 years on an ongoing basis? Its ok if you don't like the solution and, as I said, there are others. But how is it not a solution? How is that passing the buck?
