Ready for the Clinton-Kaine Payroll Tax Hike?

The Hillary Clinton-Tim Kaine ticket has doubled down on a payroll tax hike. Kaine endorsed a payroll tax increase during Tuesday’s debate. He said:

“We have to keep it [Social Security] solvent and will keep it solvent. We will look for strategies like adjusting the payroll tax cap upward in order to do that.”

And:

“We are going to stand up against that push to privatize social security and look for ways to keep it solvent going forward, focusing on the payroll tax.”

Hillary Clinton has also given a thumbs up to a payroll tax hike, though it is rarely mentioned in the media. Her remarks took place in Iowa at a major forum on Jan. 12, 2016:

Moderator: “Democrats have introduced a plan that Senator Sanders supports that you’ve come out against because it is funded by a payroll tax. If that were to reach your desk as President, would you veto it in order to make good on your tax pledge?”

Hillary Clinton: “No. No.”
