What point are you even trying to make? That she shouldn’t have become a lawyer or a politician if she believes people making millions should pay a fair portion into social security?

Her statement doesn’t exclude other career fields making seven figures or more than the social security cap. She picked one example of someone who might make that much. And some lawyers do make millions. If a lawyer makes less than six figures, then her statement doesn’t apply to them because they’re already paying into social security.

You’re picking apart what she’s saying and turning it into disingenuous interpretations by adding layers of meaning that she never implied. It’s uncharitable and in bad faith.

It wasn’t a shot at “lawyers, all of them, and no one else.” It was a shot at “people making millions in income who don’t pay their fair share into social security.”

And if you couldn’t figure that out from the context provided, then you need to work on your media literacy.
