  1. Yes, I am aware of the crunch. Maybe, because of my age, I am also aware of Democrats who tried to set aside the inflow for today’s outflow and were outvoted by Republicans who wanted those funds included in the general budget (generally speaking.) I am also cognizant of the income cap, beyond which taxpayer’s income is no longer subject to these specific taxations. I am open to learning how taxing all income for these programs isn’t sufficient to the need, as well as that rate which would do so. Truth is, I haven’t the desire to learn what exactly is currently necessary to meet this nation’s promises, given the profligate motivations of past Republicans. Edited to recognize you are aware that your claim that 50% of US citizens pay no tax is utter bullshit.
  2. Sorry an unhinged suicide terrorizes you. Give your guns away and you’ll be fine.
  3. The Vegas suicide seems to me to be about the public feud between Musk and a faction of MAGA over immigration. If this statement crosses a line, then we need a CR thread.
  4. Watched today’s press conference. POS posted three videos on his way from Houston to New Orleans. The FBI said his plan was to act in the war between believers and non-believers. Also, FBI now says he acted alone.
  5. Self immolation, as a form of protest, might have been the goal.
  6. Whoever this is at the official update going on said the Sugar Bowl will kick off at 3PM. Edited to say the guy is Governor Landry.
  7. Getting into the Sugar Bowl will depend on whether bomb sniffing dogs take an interest in you. https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/new-orleans-truck-attack-suspect-01-02-25-hnk/index.html
  8. Well, thanks, @Ag with kids, for the opportunity to point out the turnip party wants to cut SS, and, perhaps, Medicare, despite those two programs having a dedicated tax, which legally employed citizens pay into, and for that half of the country you mention, at 100% of their income.
  9. @Wally Fairway, would you please update the title of this thread to include those folks who have since died?
  10. Who pays zero tax? How do they avoid sales and property taxes? How do they avoid paying into social security and Medicare?
  11. According to Meidas touch the ESB’s lighting tonight is a tribute to President Carter’s life. RIP, sir.
