Looks a lot like the computer from the recent movie Elio

From the first article:

Social Security will still exist after 2035, according to the report. But without congressional action, retirees will only receive 83% of their full benefits.

Insolvent doesn’t mean it goes away, it means reduced payment.

Please don’t attack my intellect without comprehending your own sources.

The only way money is running out is if people stop paying into the system altogether. As long as people pay into SS there is money to distribute.

If we just uncapped social security contributions this wouldn’t be an issue. This is a manufactured crisis to convince people that socialism doesn’t work and we should go back to barbarism.

The only reason SS wouldn’t pay out is if you don’t qualify or it is repealed (or they break the operations so it doesn’t work). It will be there when you retire at a reduced rate. If we uncapped the SS contributions the that problem goes away.

I was all for Social Security when I knew one day I’d be able to partake in it too, but with everything going on, fuck that and give me my money back.

Mission accomplished. SS is one of the most successful government programs and we can’t have that!

Hukuo in modern China could be perceived as prioritizing the right to have a home over choosing to have none. “At what cost” includes homelessness and higher unemployment rates. We are quick to highlight where there is a lack of right in China but not how it reflects on our own lack of rights. That is to say, they aren’t trading their rights for economic progress, which is how the west often frames progress (our foreign sweat shops are good actually because it helps them in the long run). They are trading one set of rights for another.

You hold your teenage daughter like this? 🧐

Wow, it’s like it gets worse with every bit of context.

Let’s be real, his base will be so happy if Maxwell names Clinton as a client that they will forgive him for being a pedo.

I don’t know about Canada but the USA has been pro-child factory work lately. China’s wages have been rising faster than expected so they have gone all-in on automation. So when I see people claim their stuff is cheap because of “slavery” or human rights, it reads like projection.

Please tell me you didn’t realize we’re talking about athletes that have undergone HRT and this study isn’t applicable in that case.

So Ilhan Omar is wrong? They both can’t be right. The author made a good point that AOC voted differently in the past, was AOC wrong then?

We didn’t know about cointelpro and other clandestine operations until civilians broke into the FBI office and stole files. We won’t see the Epstein list unless something similar happens.

Let’s be real, if the dress said “suck off the rich” instead of “tax the rich” they wouldn’t have fined her.

Normal people who aren’t pedophiles will comment on the facial features and say something like “she has her mom’s nose”.

Expanding the city council representation seems to be the key here. Candidates with 25% + 1 votes along with rank choice voting make the cut.

If they throw the MAGA base a Clinton they might forgive Trump for being a pedo.

For the Epstein list to be released and for all the wealthy pesos to be executed.
