If Haley became the Republican nominee, republican voters would support anything she said regardless of what. They are cultist pawns. They can’t think for themselves.
I have always wondered, "WHY ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH ARE MILLIONAIRES AND BILLIONAIRES RECEIVING SOCIAL SECURITY CHECKS?" Niki's plan makes sense, even though some of the details are wonky at this early stage. This has go to give her a leg up (pardon the pun) on the rest of the repub field...especially the insurrectionist named trump.
True we'd support Nikki, but because she's 1,000,000,000x better than dumbo Joe and the deep state swamp.If Haley became the Republican nominee, republican voters would support anything she said regardless of what. They are cultist pawns. They can’t think for themselves.
Haley is adding some refreshing policies to the debate. People are tired of the one horse pony..."I was cheated in 2020"...whine whineRaise the cap, makes more sense, You could encourage them to donate the checks,
But if they earned them how can you take them away?
Their allegiance to trump shows how easy they are to fool.If Haley became the Republican nominee, republican voters would support anything she said regardless of what. They are cultist pawns. They can’t think for themselves.
I am not a haley supporter because in some ways she is a flakeBecause we were FORCED to pay into the damn thing for decades that's why so Haley go F yourself. We are not your goddamn piggy bank. It's not our responsibility to pay for other people's SS benefits. Rot in hell moochers.
Pretty soon we can replace with the democrat 2024 stealHaley is adding some refreshing policies to the debate. People are tired of the one horse pony..."I was cheated in 2020"...whine whine
Correct. The changes in the early 1980’s were because of the baby boomer bulge. It was supposed to fix SS for 50 years.
Since the fund will be depleted in 2034 they pretty much nailed it since 2034-1983 is about 51 years. In retrospect the fix needed to be a little larger for smoother 20 years worth for the bulge to work its way through.
Congress hasn’t “borrowed” against it, the T-bills are the holding instrument.
You seem to be implying that somehow Congress has taken extra money. That isn’t true. They have followed the same excess rules established in 1939.

Yeah, okay, but what if the Law is changed to eliminate the "capital gains" tax break, and all income is taxed as regular income, including SS & Medicare deductions?
What if all state and local and federal defined benefit pension plans are required to pay into 401Ks and SS & Medicare?
They bought special T-bills that they could borrow against. 2.9 billion in total since 1983 was put into those bills. And the only thing that congress has done is pay below par interest to the point that the 2.9 billion has not grown like it should have. It's a slush fund.
I think it has more to do with the debt.Niki hears socialist footsteps coming up behind her and needs to react in some way.
In fact, the entire political right is starting to lean left toward social change.
So far at least, Trump is owning it!
Nikki Haley when speaking through her wired shut jaws, wants to reduce your benefits so parties can keep stealing from the Medicare and SS trust funds.

Government gave the SS trust fund worthless IOU's for the $2 trillion they took. Worthless because where are they going to get the $2 trillion to pay us back?The bill they owe, is it not written into law that it has to be paid back???????
Screwing me out of 12.4% of MY money over and above the cap is NOT a small change. Especially considering how much I'm getting whacked at the higher income tax brackets on that money already. I'll be working for 30% on the dollar how is that fair? So get a 2nd job and pay your own share you mooching deadbeat rat bastards!You whining about a small change in the SS or tax code to ensure that we keep the entitlement benefits we were promised is enraging
Wrong. The mooching deadbeats hate that I only have to pay what they pay for the exact same benefits. That chaps their ass. Because they want to mooch off me.1. We should all pay the same percentage of our income into SS.
LMAO the old government 'pull my finger' trick. It was already reformed. Government forced us to pay gobs more into the trust fund and what did government do with the surplus? YES THEY STOLE IT AND SPENT IT. Ahem, I'm sorry borrowed it without any means of paying it back. $2 trillion and spent it on other government crap. We have no reason to trust the government won't do the same thing again.But we do need to reform the SS and Medicare system
