@Convivial point understood. There would be more work here, more people on jobs here, more money in the government.
The current president has spend 10 million in 2 months on golf trips, and from what reports today said he's gone to Mara lagro again with classified documents and he cut jobs from thousands of people. CUT HIS TRIPS from spending taxpayers money, cut his spending and the millions his staff spends and they're goings and comings. And if he does again like he did his first term he'll spend $114 million plus, and if he actually makes it so he won't leave office, he won't have to spend a dime of his money.
Lies from Musk. No surprise. Social Security is an income transferring trust fund. It is separate from other federal expenditures and revenue. Social Security functions efficiently. It is an absolutely essential program for tens of millions of seniors and the handicapped.
@badminton Then why is it running short of funding? It is essential .. but has been mismanaged. It will take more than continuing individual payments to avoid reductions in benefits or extensions of the retirement age again.
Keep waiting, I'm not going to remit to you any of the reports. A true and honest person would do the research their selves or continue to spread a lie.
Given the way the govt has mismanaged it over the decades since it was implemented .. is he really wrong? Insert Congress instead of Bernie Madoff and its about where the feck we are.
@Charity There is legitimate concern for it not remaining fully funded to avoid reductions in benefits or extending the full retirement age out further .. again. Are you telling me you are not aware of that ? Enough has been paid in that if competently managed, we would not be facing this. Wake up and smell the swamp gas.
@BrandNewMan as I said to another if this country can send billions to other countries, some countries monthly and if the current president can spin 10 million in 2 months on golf trips then they can help the elderly which has paid portions of the social security they get throughout their years of work, the children whose parent or parent has also done likewise, are those disabled and couldn't or once did do likewise.
If you live you will get old, if you live you may become disabled at some point in a younger age and if you're not a billionaire or relatively wealthy you're going to wish for social security.
@Charity I am not saying social sexurity should be cut. I am saying the government has mismanaged the funds we paid into it for decades (I'm 60 yrs old). Otherwise there would be no way it should be running short of money. It doesn't have a damn thing to do w Presidents playing golf.
@BohemianBabe yes they will, I've been around a long time and I heard the same thing year after year social security is going to run out and it hasn't ran out yet.
When you have a government that can spend billions in several different countries all the time.
When you have a government that the president can spend $114 billion in 4 years on golfing or 10 billion in 2 months on golfing. 100,000 per trip to Florida I wonder why is there always fussing about social security payments?
Let's hope no one has a parent that is elderly or disabled or a child who has lost a parent or disabled that requires social security that they have negative comments on.
@Patriot96 if wages can never keep up with profits or ir GDP people aren't sustainable. Everyone knows Americans are creaming their jeans at the thought of a rich country with poverty! The population ain't ever earned its keep! But it works. Hard,! Yes! Pleasure is from the pain only! It's how murka is! Pain is its only pleasure!
