The issue is that it's not sometimes, it's clearly all the time. The obesity rates are already super high and rising. Contributing to it is murder.
Heavy disagree. A person who poisons you is no ally even if he sometimes poisons your enemies too. We cannot have a functioning society based on this.
What is your aversion to links?
You aren't getting back what you paid though, that's never been what Social Security is. The money you pay is immediately redistributed to people in the program and the money you will get will come from the people paying in at that moment. Social Security has always been a welfare program. It was sold to the public as a welfare program along with all the other welfare programs created at the same time.
This is three weeks old
The 1983 change only allowed for taxing 50% of SS benefits if the recipient already had other income exceeding a threshold that made their SS checks irrelevant anyway. SS probably should've been eliminated altogether for those wealthy individuals (the means-testing taboo) but this was the compromise.
The ACLU used to be more neutral too but you can't be neutral in situations like this. Conservatives are cucks and losers, and shitlibs are virulent authoritarians. The more FIRE takes on left wing causes the more they'll be pressured to stop taking on conservative causes. And because conservatives are losers, FIRE will meekly do as they're asked.
Wait so if the start is paying in to a retirement program you dont need, and the extreme was not requiring this federal retirement program for wealthy people since they wont need it, how is keeping that retirement program AND taxing the shit out of the wealthy people that likely wont use it a compromise? Am I misunderstanding something?
It's insane. I've seen 600k+ houses popping in at almost 4k square on an acre where you have to walk to the central mail area like a little bitch.
I didn’t say they’re an ally. Just a neutral force. A libertarian might on principle think the state shouldn’t interfere with gun rights. But that same principle could lead them to say that the state shouldn’t interfere with parents chopping off their kids’ penises. They’re neither an ally or an enemy. They’re just what they are.
In my experience, when libertarians are faced with the dilemma of sticking to their principles with conservatives or taking the easy way out and capitulating to screeching liberals, they almost always take the latter option.
The disgusting obsession about protecting drag shows around young people is always oh so telling.
