How to Save Social Security in One Easy Step

Ezra Klein wrote How to lift the debt ceiling and save Social Security in one easy step. "The only fix that garnered majority support was lifting the payroll-tax cap so that all income, rather than just the first $107,000, got taxed. That’s a reform, I’m confident to say, that the Senate’s liberals would have less trouble swallowing, and according to the Congressional Budget Office, it would wipe out virtually all of Social Security’s shortfall."

Sounds good to me.
