MAGAs are coming for your government-run, entitlement program. It's all on the table.

[Ringo]

That's true, but at least the Democrats make more effort to pretend they care,

That's the whole point: they're pretending. Democrats are the capos in the concentration camp, who tell the prisoners that if you work hard, the camp administration will give you one more ounce of soup.
As a communist sympathizer, I prefer to deal with open capitalists than these traitors. Enemies can be taken prisoner, traitors are only fit for a firing squad.

 

[toobfreak]

The irony is that the vast majority of these GOP fans aren't even rich.

You mean to claim that the vast majority of Democrats are rich? What happened to the party of the poor? You mean all the blacks and minorities you forever promise to raise up out of the ghetto are already rich, dumbass?

They're working-class people, and some of them are even collecting Social Security and Medicare.

Everyone is working class, even the rich. Most rich got rich by WORKING HARD, jackass. Only ones not part of the "working class" are the mega rich like Carnegies and Rockefellers. Even Musk worth 200 billion dollars works his ass off. He is working for free right now. Do you think Tesla and SpaceX got off the ground and keep succeeding because he sleeps in till 1PM, Moron?

These GOP groupies are freaking retarded.

I'm looking at the only retard here.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are now living in a corporatist state. I kid you not.

Yep, OP, Trump currently has America right where he wants us, getting reamed by his massive fraud, lies and corruption.

That was never NATO's original mission and there's no evidence that Russia wants or ever wanted, after the collapse of the USSR, to invade its former Soviet territories in Eastern Europe. You have nothing but empty rhetoric, because Russia is the largest nation on Earth, with the most natural resources of any country. Your scumbag ilk, would love to get their grubby, filthy, bloodstained hands on Russia's natural resources, but unfortunately, they can't. Russia hasn't balkanized and they're a sovereign country. So fuck off Todd.

That was never NATO's original mission

NATO's mission was never to stop the USSR from attacking Europe? DURR

and there's no evidence that Russia wants or ever wanted, after the collapse of the USSR, to invade its former Soviet territories in Eastern Europe.


Right, except for the ones they attacked and invaded.

You have nothing but empty rhetoric, because Russia is the largest nation on Earth, with the most natural resources of any country.

Yeah, it's a shame that their commie leaders have squandered them.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

You're unable to present any evidence, hence you're the one "frothing" and pulling unsubstantiated bullshit out of his ass.

Your parents get their SS payments cut off yet?

 

[g5000]

President Musk and his chief-of-staff Donald Trump have actually managed to convince the cult that government overspending is the fault of the poor and Mexicans.

Not the $1.6 trillion of annual tax expenditures which mostly benefit the wealthy and the oligarchs which literally adds up to twice what we spend on social welfare programs.

Not the subsidies handed out like candy to the Musks of the world.

Not the bloated defense contracts and their infinite cost overruns.

No, it's the poor people and the Mexicans draining us dry.

Elon Musk issues major Social Security warning

The tech magnate said some $1 billion is lost every week due to fraud.

Elon Musk's access to Treasury's payment system is raising alarms. Here's what to know.

Elon Musk's control of a federal payment system is raising concerns about funding for programs like Social Security and the safety of personal data.

www.cbsnews.com

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/social-security-beneficiaries-every-reason-141525807.html

Elon Musk’s recent comments about “widespread fraud” in federal entitlements have sparked intense debate, particularly after Congressman Riley Moore’s remarks about cutting what he called “mandatory spendings”, programs like Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security.

Republicans have already put forth budget resolutions calling for billions of dollars in cuts to Medicaid and food assistance programs, effectively targeting society’s most vulnerable. Musk recently commented alleging billions of dollars in fraudulent Social Security payments, a claim made without evidence and contrary to the Social Security Administration’s protocols requiring valid identification for benefits. Musk’s statements are an effort to sow doubt about the legitimacy of these programs, laying the groundwork for potentially drastic reductions in Social Security under the guise of “efficiency” or “fraud prevention.”

Obviously both Medicare and Social Security need to be fixed. They've needed fixing for decades and the Congress critters never do anything but kick the can down the road. Now we've got someone in there with the balls to fix it.

 

[g5000]

When President Elon calls for the elimination of tax expenditures, then I will believe he is honest and serious.

Until then, it is obvious to me he is rigging the government in his favor and in the favor of his fellow oligarchs who bought and paid for Trump.

 

[g5000]

Obviously both Medicare and Social Security need to be fixed. They've needed fixing for decades and the Congress critters never do anything but kick the can down the road. Now we've got someone in there with the balls to fix it.

As I have been saying for a very long time, we need to increase the Social Security and Medicare eligibility age to 70, and index it to 9 percent of the population going forward.

This is the only sane, common sense solution.

We are living longer than our ancestors of 1935. We should be working longer.

 

[TruthNotBS]

If we keep spending money the way there are now. We will be bankrupt, dumbass.

No, you fucking retard, America will never go insolvent or bankrupt. A nation that prints its own fiat, sovereign currency, can't go bankrupt, especially, when it has enough production to meet demand. If the government deposits 5 million dollars in everyone's bank account then of course, that would collapse the economy, because most people would stay home or go on a long-term vacation. The store shelves would be empty because all of the new millionaires would buy everything and we wouldn't have the production capacity to meet the demand created by hundreds of millions of new millionaires, created instantly by Uncle Sam.

Of course, the US Federal government has its budgetary constraints, I'm not saying that the government can just print money, and give it away. The budget limits of our federal government are determined by our GDP. Our nation's production capacity. How many people are employed, how many resources do we have available, as far as raw materials, machinery...etc. Watch these videos, and get an instant education on how our monetary system works:

​

It's good to be fiscally disciplined and not spend more money than we have to, at a macroeconomic level, but when our government spends money on social programs that provide for the poor, providing benefits to the working class, that contributes positively to the health and productivity of our country. Investing heavily in infrastructure, and making sure that everyone in America has healthcare, an education, and is earning a living wage if they work a full-time job. All of that makes America wealthier and stronger.

Fix what about Social Security? What are you "fixing" about Social Security? Be more precise. What exactly are you "fixing"?

Yeah, we need to just have the Fed print more money. DURR

Todd, you need to learn how to think rationally. Analyze your question, I shouldn't have to continue educating you on how to formulate a logical argument. Your question is stupid and irrelevant.

That's a relief.

When Todd reads what I write, due to his reading comprehension deficiency, he conjures up strawman points never made and does nothing more than skew what is being said. It's amazing the level of stupidity that you're suffering from.

Tax cuts for the lower and middle class perhaps should be a much bigger percentage cut than billionaires.

 

[Concerned American]

there's no evidence that Russia wants or ever wanted, after the collapse of the USSR, to invade its former Soviet territories in Eastern Europe.

What would you call the unilateral annexation of Crimea, which is part of Ukraine, a former soviet republic, in 2014? That isn't an invasion? Your ignorance is showing again.
