@CheesyBulgari @conorsen Why doesn't everything move a half hour?

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@AdrienneRoyer @conorsen I know, but why not just start all the schools a half hour later?

@BLACK_DAHLIA77 @DailyLoud Did you watch the video? That's not what happened

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@trsynwax @JerusalemDemsas But the whole point is that it wasn't considered cowardice at the time.

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@InlandCaGuy You can grandfather cuts in over a 5 year period to make the viable for working people now.

There's no way to save SS without cuts to people currently getting benefits or about to get benefits.

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@Izengabe_ @SeanTrende @willcollier He's not talking about taking their full benefit away, he's talking about capping it at a certain point.

If you really think the only two choices are benefits at $124k a year and absolutely nothing, you gotta expand you're thinking

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@kjgillenwater @SeanTrende @MariaKoklanaris No, it's not. But it's very heavily subsidized

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@kjgillenwater @SeanTrende @MariaKoklanaris 124k in government benefits per year, plus Medicare, plus other assets, usually makes for plenty. Also, it's completely unsustainable given the country's debt and Social Security's solvency issues. It's gonna change whether you like it or not.

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@KimFederalist2 @SeanTrende He likely got his information from the social security website. It lays it out pretty plainly. It's really not hard to figure out. His numbers are correct

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@zulkarious @SeanTrende That's not true. You don't need to make the max amount for 35 years to get the max payout.

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@kjgillenwater @SeanTrende @MariaKoklanaris Then why don't we prioritize seniors who need the money instead of seniors who don't?

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@kjgillenwater @SeanTrende @MariaKoklanaris Most retires have more sources of income than just SS

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@seanholeary1 @_nickmessenger She has a lot of ideas actually. She has proposed a plan that makes sense. People might disagree with it, but at least it's economically viable

@americanaradio4 @NewYorkGolfer13 There's been plenty of outside shows affected by the weather. But they're usually handled 100 times better. No one's mad at the weather, we're frustrated with the handing of it.

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@NewYorkGolfer13 @americanaradio4 We didn't even get it! Horrible experience

[Brian McCaskill @BriMcCaskill]

@JakeSherman So he returned to say two things to a reporter - Of course I'm alive, and of course I'm running for reelection.

Really inspiring stuff

@Robert_Auth @OneJerseySchorr @VoteMyhre Nothing is wrong with standing up for America. Standing up for America is great, but I fail to see how this bill does this.

What's your long term goal? You're right, I'm not privy to it, but would love to know.
