An average of almost 69 million Americans per month will receive a social security benefit in 2025, totaling about $1.6tn in benefits paid during the year and accounting for 22% of the federal budget. While expensive and challenged by an ageing population, social security remains overwhelmingly popular with Americans. But the agency has been dubbed a “Ponzi scheme” by Elon Musk, the billionaire whose so-called “department of government efficiency” (Doge) is currently slashing its staff and budgets.



 

Elon Musk has a net worth that is about 25% of the annual budget of a program that 69,000,000 Americans depend on for food and shelter. It is a criminal amount of wealth and he’s the one in charge of slashing vital programs that people he deems to be parasites depend on.

What is a financial deficit? Does he mean a trade deficit? We are richer than China in every metric imaginable, but I guess we need them to buy our products more for some reason?

Yep. I think the money is better spent supporting organizations that help the victims of the administration. Gay advocacy, legal support for persons of color being rounded up indescriminately, food programs, and the like. 

I don't want to starve the Dems, but they are not best instrument in this struggle at least so far. Public outcry may alleve some of their fears of losing their seats. So many Dems are so timid.

Crockett, AOC, Booker and a few others are out front. I will say, to state the obvious, that there is no John Lewis right now. Someone is going to have to be the new face of Bloody Sunday 2 in order to really get the public mobilized. Otherwise te protests will wind up being performative art and I don’t want to see that be the outcome from this.

Let's call it what it is, a tax hike on Americans that doesn't require Congressional approval. (although they could stop it)

Deficit or surplus?  Because he uses both.  Guy doesn't know shit from shinola and thinks any "deficit" is bad.

The nationwide protests are building, but they really need to be outside Mar-a-Lago and his golf courses on Saturdays and Sundays.

Trump is pretty isolated from the world.  He's in the White House most of Mon-Fri, then flys to Florida for weekend golf every Sat-Sun.  His world is what he sees out of the Oval Office, the view from a helicopter, a Big Mac and Filet-o-Fish served onboard a 747, a limo ride, the patio at Mar-a-Lago, and weekends behind a golf cart.  That's it.

He's surrounded by yes-men and young blondes who love every suggestion he has.

He needs to see the protests for them to be effective.

No. The goal isn't to change Trump's mind. That's not possible.

Sun Tzu sounds very DEI, as does the word 'Art'.

I know a few Warriors. Interesting. Few have tattoos, they are very well read, and have mundane hobbies. My favorite is a dude who lives next to Hadrian's wall and is a Gardner. Yep, the fucker is one of the meanest warriors out there.

These dicks think Meditations was written in Tibet. They are oxygen thieves.

It's popular to shit on Hofstadter these days, but some of his work should be more popular.

Maybe it can be like the 1941 October Revolution Parade where the tanks pass by the dear leader and go right back to the battlefield.

No. It is recent. General Scott Miller, Admiral McRaven. Smart dudes. Well read. Want a reminder?
