Not raising the percentage taken out, removing the income limit. After you make about 85k, FICA isn't taken out of your checks anymore. Barry Bonds pays just as much FICA as the guy making 90k.
Furthermore, people making ~85k are not the common 'working man.' If anything removing the cap on FICA would allow everyone else's taxes lower.
