re: The strikes on Iran are a fraud of the highest order

quote:How would we know?
We have seen absolutely 0 evidence that Iran was anywhere close to obtaining a nuclear weapon.
quote:That's false.
We haven't even seen any evidence that they were trying to obtain a nuclear weapon.
quote:Unfortunately we cannot know definitively whether "being on the brink of having nuclear weapons" is "a false justification" or not
But making up things about them being on the brink of having nuclear weapons is just a false justification for regime change.

HE WAS APPOINTED TO A POLITICAL BOARD POSITION BY WALZ
Yours is a silly, unnecessary contention.

If it's a bipartisan board, him being appointed to the board by someone doesn't paint a clear picture of his political leanings

Your unsupported, subjective beliefs
Allow me to help .... HE WAS APPOINTED TO A POLITICAL BOARD POSITION BY WALZ
That fact is neither unsupported nor subjective belief.

And you're smart enough (I hope) to know that this is not an important detail
Frankly, none of us know how important a detail it is.
But what is undeniable is it is evidence of some sort.

quote:Walz would never, ever, ever remotely consider appointing someone to that, or any position, if he had the slightest inkling they were something right of borderline Communist. That is evidence. FULL STOP. DONE.
What does that have to do with my point?
Now there may be conflicting evidence. But the contention that an appointment by one of the biggest partisan hacks in US politics is not evidence of political posture is just dumb.

quote:Walz is a rabid political partisan. Did he or did he not reappoint Vance Boelter to the WDB in 2019?
He was appointed to a bipartisan workforce commission (originally by Walz's predecessor).

The "source" won't even allow his/her name to be associated with the claim?

quote:OMG! You poor poor patsy fool! :dope:
the average person recoups their own contributions within roughly 3–5 years after they start collecting benefits
So basically if you are older than 69 yrs old you are now collecting welfare.
You really are neck-deep invested in the "Social Security is a retirement benefit" trope, aren't you though?
Let's take a look at your claim ... shall we?
---
The average worker pays ~$190K (today's dollars) into SS over a working lifetime. That $190K is matched by the employer. But make no mistake, both essentially come from the worker's paycheck. So an individual's overall contribution into SS is ~$380K
The average retiree receives ~$1900/m in SS paybacks. Meaning, the individual must live 200 months past full retirement eligibility age just to recoup the cost of contributions he/she put in. In other words, after retiring at full eligibility (age 66.5), one would have to collect SS until age 83 to simply recoup contributions, WITHOUT ANY ADDED INTEREST ON THE INVESTMENT!
To that, add in the fact that as of 2023, the life expectancy at birth for men in the United States was 75.8 years, while for women it was 81.1 years.
Now then, what was it you were saying?

Why weren’t liberals worried about kings
When Biden was forcing vaccines, censoring free speech, and arresting political opponents?
Their Emperor had no clothes.
They tried to convince everyone watching, that the Emperor's clothes were not only there, but that they were beautiful.

This is just the kind of nonsense we need to stop
We'll have to agree to disagree there.

What would be the point?
You wonder what would be the point of asking the guy who's been comparing ICE to psychopathic Nazi murderers, and who hired this psychopath to work for him, whether he, his vitriol, and his associations hold any culpability here?
Sorry Tim, culpability is a thing.

It really is not that complicated.

Now then, calculate the cost of control of financed debt in a 137% Debt:GDP equation
