Every dollar earned below $184,500 a year has a Social Security tax of 12.4%. Everything after that cap is exempt. If we lift this cap on the wealthiest earners, Social Security would be fully funded till 2070. The cap should not exist.

The trust funds for Social Security and Medicaid will run out of money in as little as 8 years, a shorter time frame than previously estimated, according to a report issued Wednesday by the programs' trustees. abcnews.link/r5kTy1r

An Auntie Anneโs original pretzel cost about $3.50 in 2009. Today itโs $7.29. The pretzel tracked inflation almost perfectly.
The pretzel is accidentally the most honest inflation tracker in America. Itโs priced in flour, sugar, labor, commercial rent, and energy. Every cost that went up in 17 years is baked into that $7.29. One mall receipt tells you more about the economy than most dashboards.
Now do the rest. Gas in 2009 averaged $2.35 a gallon. Today itโs $3.81. Up 62%. The median U.S. home sold for $172,000 in 2009. The latest FRED data has it at $405,300. Up 136%. Average public university tuition went from about $7,000 to $12,000. Up 71%. Health insurance premiums for a family of four went from $13,000 to over $24,000. Up 85%.
Every price in the economy moved. The federal minimum wage of $7.25 was set on July 24, 2009. It has not changed once in 6,088 days. $7.25 in 2009 had the purchasing power of $10.47 today. Thatโs a 30% silent pay cut delivered one year at a time, while the number on the check never moved.
In 2009, $7.25 bought two Auntie Anneโs pretzels. In 2026, it doesnโt buy one.
The dollar lost 30% of its value. The pretzel adjusted. The wage didnโt.

The minimum wage in Pennsylvania is $7.25 an hour. A regular Auntie Anneโs soft pretzel at the mall is $7.29. Imagine telling someone an hour of their time is worth less than a pretzel.

DOGE didn't fail. It was never meant to reduce debt. It was meant to syphon your personal data to Elon Musk and his friends private businesses and gut agencies they don't like or that try to hold them accountable. It was a stunning success actually.
