US Elections (& Politics) :)

Congrats Republican voters and MAGA Cult members!!!!

Due to inflation caused by Trump, prices are rising faster than wages.
For those who failed maffs, this means you're losing money every hour you work.

Trump and the Republican Congress (who are 99% owned by Israel) plan on:

  • Cutting Medicare and Social Security

What's the definition of "cut"? One of the options floated for SS is to raise the retirement age, which should have been built into the system from day one, based on statistical life spans. The reason we're at this crisis is that past administrations and congresses have refused to do anything to avert the crisis. Pretty simple math says that SOMETHING has to change or the whole pyramid scheme will collapse.

Medicare isn't as simple because it's so intertwined with the corrupt medical and insurance industries. If "cut" were to somehow reform how we're getting fleeced by big pharma, for instance, I'm all for it. I'm just afraid this can't happen because of the political control big pharma has. Congress, not just republicans, is just as owned by big pharma as they are by aipac. On an actuarial basis, Medicare is doomed, so something gets done or it too collapses.

Ok you go first ;)

They will cut benefits, and likely raise the age.

But why would you not first legislate that everyone must pay regardless of income? And yes that would mean a graduated higher payout for those who pay more

Yes... it's bad enough, but IMO, trump is the least qualified and least trustworthy leader that could ever be involved in making/deciding whatever changes are necessary... and the sycophants he surrounds himself with that allow him to do as he pleases...

Maybe I'm nuts, but I see grift and/or narcissism determining everything he does... every blatantly crooked move he makes...

Exhibit 1...

This is an incredible admission that pro-Israel forces are going straight to the AI companies to alter the perception of reality that you see.

You can call this influence, manipulation or control, but you can’t say it’s not happening. She just told you they’re doing it.

There is just one undisputed American belt holder in the UFC.
To celebrate the 250th anniversary of our country you would expect that he would be fighting on the White House card

He is not. Because he criticizes Israel.
