@beha_hun Social security is a welfare program for the elderly.
It is not a retirement program.
It is funded by taxes collected each year to pay the funds for the elderly.
You have as much claim to the funds as you do for the gas taxes you pay to fix the road in front of your house.
@AlexandreMelnik Well hope you are right.
However they have more people they can lose while Ukraine fights than Ukraine can lose.
Each soldier lost by Ukraine hurts more than each soldier Russia and North Korea loses.

One year the post Chaplin commander got upset that the LDS Chaplin was not the ward bishop, that “regular” members were the leaders. (With no regard for rank)
It got straighten out, but the ward was ready to dissolve over the issue.
@jeremyct My contract is 12 hours of vacation and 6 hours of sick time per two weeks worked
We work16 hour shifts so that’s 19 days of vacation a year
Since we work 7 days out of 14, that’s almost three weeks
Add in 8 hours of incentive time each 3 months for not calling in sick, it’s 3.5

@omgsidewalks Our last group hiring (we payed people to take the national certification course and test) was 22.
One failed out, one quit
Of the 20, at 10 months only 4 were still working with us
2 quit and the other 12 were fired for not coming in on time and not showing up. All were under 20
@StephenM Most of the FISA judges are federal judges from outside of DC, and we’re talking about warrants for the FBI to search the databases, not the Secretary of War… unless the Secretary of War is targeting America citizens… is there something you want to tell us?
Gas prices hurt every American family, and Washington's response is always the same: more regulations, more mandates, more government control over your choices at the pump.
My Fuel Choice and Deregulation Act does the opposite. It removes EPA barriers blocking alternative fuels, opens the market to real competition, and lowers gas prices.
@WallStreetMav That often depends on the state.
Some states require nurses to supervise the blood draw others let techs do it on their own.
Hint, nurses cost more.
