So, could what I thought I had read have meant that the total amount paid out needed to rise if the cap is raised, even if the 'maximum single person payout' didn't change? Not that I'm against the idea, but I could swear I read from a reasonably reliable source that raising the cap won't help overall solvency of the system, like maybe a certain % of what's taken in always has to be paid out, something like that?
