No disagreement there. But the promise was "no cuts." Unless one prints money or there is a massive inflow of funds dedicated to Social Security, that doesn't happen without a freeze. This is not partisan, it's reality: the Trump math doesn't work. COL will rise with tariffs (and is already rising now). IRS income is going to be way down. Tariffs will not come close to making up the difference. The federal budget is way out of whack. Trump tax cuts for the rich are likely to be continued by this Congress. The massive fraud and waste of which MAGA complains isn't materializing, and therefore is highly unlikely to realize the savings Trump needs to keep his promises. So what's the solution? Social Security freeze, asking states to contribute more to Medicaid/Medicare, and more borrowing. Unless, of course, MAGA raises the top tax rates on rich folks and raises corporate taxes. Which it would seem populists would want to do, but their leader (a rich guy, allegedly, himself) seems to have different ideas. So, in the end, the little guy is getting sold a bill of goods once again, all while distracted by trannies and insults and UFO/JFK conspiracies.

Let’s see how social security recipients feel about your sleight of hand. Tax cuts for rich folks so you can freeze social security for poor folks. I don’t think even you know what that means. And you say that you’re the smartest teacher in Florida. Must be a veritable sea of morons down there if that’s remotely close to true.

So freezing benefits for future years will not constitute a cut? (Arguably it is a cut if social security doesn’t keep up with the cost of living, but let’s not make it too complicated.). Simple mathematics indicate that “freeze” is where it’s heading. MAGA is going to learn the hard way the difference between “diminution” or “freeze” and “cut.”

Looks like a little mini rally going on now. Might be a good day to get in and then out by about 2:30p.

That’s really funny. Hoax. How’s the market doing since Trump took over?

Woof. Another bad day today, if this is winning I’d hate to see what losing looks like,

It’s time for a generational talent, blue chipper

At this point the tank might be unintentional. The QB situation is a mess and, frankly, laughable for a team that intends to compete in that division. -
With zip ties, apparently. At the Capitol. And then inside the Capitol. We also learned today that you’re a Welfare Queen. Stop watching TV all day and get a job.

It’s not good, for sure. Define “proficient,” though. Elon should have worked harder on spelling.

If one must pay to get it, then yes.

If ever there is a team that should tank it’s the 2025 Giants. -
MAGA: Look at us! We’re the evidence that the Department of Education has failed! We’re a horde of semi-toothless morons who don’t understand tariffs and are taking down the economy because of it! In some respects it’s hard to argue the point.

Because Mike Pence did the right thing. And because the efforts to stop the peaceful transition failed. The Welfare Queen cometh again! Thanks again for proving my point. Being that it’s not 2047 yet (his target date), the answer is no. Probably going to be a lot tougher if MAGA continues to gut funds that pay for research for projects of that nature. But then again, I get MAGA’s antipathy toward such a thing. Meth addiction or diabetes is far more likely to get them before cancer does, so why fund something that for them is largely a statistical non-issue.

Political Violence: Where Do You Stand?
SectionC3 replied to BillsFanNC's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Not in the least. Tens of millions of Americans protested that summer. The number of protestors who committed crimes and/or acts of violence in conjunction with those protests is tiny in comparison. -
And yet she is the governor and you’re a loser.

Cut and run. On brand for the Welfare Queen!
