Containment Random Chris Updates

That only follows if the tax rate is 100%.

Chris' tugboat comes from Bob's social security work credits.

I thought his tugboat came from the fact that Virginia recognizes autism as a disability.

Social Security is federal. But on top of that, you don't actually get disability welfare in the US by default. You have to work for it. Chris gets his because of Bob's work credits.

How long does he have until those credits run out?

That's a good question. Based on the qualifications, they might end up floating him for life. But I can't read it carefully enough right now.

 

[Tragi-Chan]

Wow, so despite being told by people on numerous occasions that all his ideas, jokes, and verbal diarrhea are terrible, he still thinks people want to experience his autistic testimonials.
wow
I guess hundreds to thousands are hating on Chris, and he just ignores it because he is a beautiful trans-lesbian that can do no harm.

I think it's more that for the past nine years, Chris has been criticised basically every day. People constantly tell him that his comics are crap, he's an idiot, he's fat, he's not a woman, he'll be single forever. Every day a dozen new weens think they'll be the one to give him a dose of reality by tellin' it like it is (read: insulting him). And let's face it, even if he turned his life around tomorrow, he'll always be Chris and he'll always get trolled. I can kind of understand why, under those circumstances, he'd just tune it all out.

Chris tunes it out most of the time, he just attributes his Captain Obvious critics as "haters" and jealous of his newfound "womanhood".
I would really like to know how Chris handles the truth that all of his weens and truth-tellers are right, he has to face it sometime.

He fucking has a handicap placard because of it. Thankfully, he's banned pretty much everywhere he would use it.

I think he's dimly aware of it, and it does bother him. But his way of dealing with it is to use mental gymnastics to re-attribute the feelings. If someone says something that makes him feel bad, it's because they're mean. The Hurtful Truth Level was a case in point. Chris was criticised in a very on-point, impossible to ignore fashion, and he was upset by it. So he invented this "Hurtful Truth Level" to shift the blame. He was upset because he'd been told what was wrong with him, but she shouldn't have done that because it made him feel bad. Therefore, she made him feel bad. So she was at fault. So he's just fine.

If Chris ever came around to acknowledging the fact his art is absolute crap he would still shit himself and do nothing...

 

[DragoonSierra]

That thought of Chris is so wrong. I believe people should be rewarded for their efforts. The harder you work, the more benefits you would get. Taxing the rich would only demotivate people to climb up the ladder since it won't be so much rewarding. This pushes people towards having a lazy attitude; do nothing and get money, just like Chris wants.

The draw of more money is too powerful to demotivate people from wanting more unless taxes get really high.

I just realized Chris didn't beg to be sponsored for ExtraLife this year. Guess they didn't have enough free shit for him to hoard.

 

[TOOTBLAN]

Calling it right now. The next post Chris makes will be about the election in some capacity.

 

[zap2theextreme]

If trump wins how will Chris act out his rage? It's not like there's a Trump equivalent of a gamestop he can vandalize.

Ah but there is! He will make a lego trump minifigure and subject him to various tortures, like shaking in a plastic tub and being trodden on in Chris's socks.

He already made that video where he pretended one of his transformer toys was 'Trumptatron' and attacked it.

If Hillary wins

"I, Christine Weston Chandler, proud, lesbian transwoman of the original Anglo-Saxton founding family Weston-Chandler, would like to give you, Hillary Rodham Clinton, a congenital welcome as our new president and LGBT saviour extraordinaire. I know that I along with my LGBT comrades look forward to your presidency and refreshing "sisters are doing it for themselves" attitude. As a shining example of a lesbian and transgender woman, I would like to make sure that you keep your promise and do our bidding by ridding Americans of the terror on the home front, which is still plaguing us, known as homosetual males and their erotically appetising nipples. For your second action as reigning president, I would like for you to pass the act known as "Pristine Christine gets her Pristine new Vagina". The act I proposed will entail cutting through all of that red tape on capitol hill so that I can get my China graciously donated by hardworking taxpayers.
Thank You madam president! I expect you will take care of this matter in a timely way, or I can easily contact #HRC to settle this matter before my sweetheart arrives. Remember to please make my new flaps tribbed for her pleasure."

What the trash heap is that rainbow shit on Sonichu's head...?

That only follows if the tax rate is 100%.

It doesn't take a 100% tax rate to demotivate people. Suppose I have a million dollars to start a new business. There is a possibility that the company fails and I lose all the money, but suppose there is a chance that the company succeeds and I get $10 million. Now suppose there is a 90% tax rate. So instead of getting $10 million, I only get $1 million.

It's like tails you lose, heads you break even... I'm not playing that game.

Social Security is federal. But on top of that, you don't actually get disability welfare in the US by default. You have to work for it. Chris gets his because of Bob's work credits.

There is a separate disability program called SSI which is not based on work history. If Chris didn't qualify for SSDI, he would qualify for that.

I was specifically addressing what @Suicidal Emo Panda said. They said that the harder you work, the more benefits you get. That is, working for a wage will always get you more money proportionally to how much you work. That still holds up regardless of the tax rate. (Unless it's 100%, of course.)

Additionally, I wouldn't regard investment as work, per se. It's more comparable to gambling.

(I mean, I'm not putting it down. It's admirable and there's societal value in it, but I think the motivations are different from ordinary wage-based work.)

SSI pays out way too little. He wouldn't be able to survive on it.

Others do, why can't Chris. This is one of those areas where Chris is given a false sense of entitlement.

I don't know, it's a pretty low payout given where he lives. I guess there's a way to make it work.

Yeah, but @Suicidal Emo Panda was talking about taxing the rich. The rich generally don't get paid ordinary wages. They are shareholders in the company.
