Which means the system will still be separate from the general fund.

    Adjustments need to be made but politicians are avoiding it for now. The Projected 70 million recipients in 2033 will be a huge voting bloc. Politicians will take up the cause. It will most likely be a very big campaign issue in 2032….unless something is done about it before then.

    You know how you fix that? You raise the FICA%. You know what US companies can't do now?? Say fuck it I am moving these jobs to Vietnam because of the Tariffs.
    You can continue to aggressively raise the FICA cap

    You could encourage immigration to support the retired or millenials to fuck and raise children instead of dogs. You’ll have better luck with immigrants

    ok full disclosure i did not predict this:




    The New York Times is now reporting that General Timothy D. Haugh, the Commander of U.S. Cyber Command (CYBERCOM), Director of the National Security Agency (NSA), and Chief of the Central Security Service (CSS), who was removed earlier tonight from all of his civilian and military leadership roles, was one of the many officials who far-right conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer called for President Trump to fire, during a meeting with him yesterday in the Oval Office. According to officials, General Haugh was traveling on work when reports came out earlier today about his removal, with neither him nor his Deputy at the NSA Wendy Noble being told the reason for their removal by President Trump.

    the market is acting like it expects these tariffs to go away, either by act of congress or, more likely, trump lifting them after 'negotiations'. this definitely isnt the sustained implosion i was expecting.

    When you could filp it all with a tweet, it’s hard to take it too seriously.

    We have seen him accomplish next to nothing and declare victory before.

    Druff hasn’t made any observations at all concerning this administration with maybe one or two exceptions.

    For a guy who daydreams about hosting a conservative podcast that’s lacking courage.

    That’s a shame cause it’s never been wilder and more interesting than now. I’m not hobbled by partisan politics so it’s different for me I guess.

    Shapiro was on the All In (Grifter) Podcast. I figured it had something to do with Autism Awareness Month. Have not listened (yet).

    I might but prolly not.

    Nigggerrrr loving ‘Tine thinks anyone cares what he thinks. He must have paid Druff cash, possibly around $20, to allow him to spread his nonsense here daily.

    He is why they drag them behind trucks.
    Coge stuff right here. It was already priced in folks. Nothing to see here.

    He’s watching FOX News. They’re just running stories on illegal immigrants and tornados, and ignoring the markets.

    everything we knew about the modern economy is now invalid.

    The old economy same as the old economy.

    We still have a buyer of last resort.
