San Diego is delightful. The homeless situation is obviously a problem. Apology accepted. 

It's really not bad. Only downtown and even then, only certain areas, and even then it's never bothered me a bit. I went to SF last year and I would say THAT is bad. SD is just run of the mill.

What would be the BEST non-white country to emigrate to, in your opinion? It doesn't have to be all one race of course, but majority non-white. Whether you have a current opinion or you want to research one.

Sounds good!

 

Do you think it's a problem that they're still a Christian majority?

I AM asking for opinions.

 

I like Belize as a starting point, it seems to have a lot to offer. Thanks for chiming in!

Decades old? Does that imply that Obama and Biden had the opportunity to close that loophole but chose not to?

English speaking, cost of living is cheap and people are friendly. We've been there a few times, when the grandkids are off to college in a few years the wife wants to buy a winter home down there. I highly recommend it.

Message received from the Social Security Administration (I can elect to receive benefits starting next year) says the new BBB "delivers long-awaited tax relief to millions of older Americans. The new law includes a provision that eliminates federal income taxes on Social Security benefits for most beneficiaries, providing relief to individuals and couples. Additionally, it provides an enhanced deduction for taxpayers aged 65 and older, ensuring that retirees can keep more of what they have earned.”

 

And guess what my wife I will save in taxes thanks to "no tax on social security?"

 

You got it: Nothing. Zero.

 

The increased deduction wouldn't apply till I'm 65, and that's a ways off. And even if I wait to get benefits, it won't apply because (1) it phases out, conveniently, in 2028 after Trump is gone; (2) there's an income phase-out that we'll exceed.

 

So ... nothing. Zero.

 

"Promises kept" indeed.

I get hit by the income phase out too. Seems fair though. I'm good with it.

In principle, yes.

But it was kind of a simple campaign promise, right? NO tax on social security. And now Trump is making his SSA send out similarly deceptive messages to befuddled old folks like me.

The infected are in overdrive—hurling everything they can to distract from the fact that wars are still raging, prices are climbing, and nothing they promised - no new wars, Epstein accountability, Comey or Brennan, etc. You know it's bad when the past six months have been nothing but a cluster*****.

 

But they REALLY want you to forget about losing your healthcare.

Is there another cause you can take up? Saving the whales? How's the ozone doing? You are sad and pretty terrible at your anti trump crusade. He did get voted president again, after all.
