by eliminating the cap
-
would be imposing a gigantic marginal tax rate on a lot of people
-
who don't have a marginal tax rate--
-
who have already high marginal tax rate.

-
So 94 percent of workers are below the cap anyway,
-
so we're talking about the top 6 percent,
-
most of which--you'll be in that top 6 percent,
-
so you won't have to pay on the margin Social Security tax.
-
So there's the taxes, 12.4 percent,
-
and then there are the benefits.
-
Now how do the benefits work?
