I prefer removing the employee "caps" on all income for social security,
and using the proceeds to help fund social security, medicare and health
insurance.

If I recall correctly employers match dollar for dollar the social security
tax paid by employees.
Does your plan also include having the employer match the new, uncapped tax?

Did I really have to ask?

My point is that although your idea has merit, there is a downside. Small
businesses may not be able to absorb even more taxes without having a
negative impact on their business, ability to grow or even maintain their
current employee levels.
