@HotepJesus@CHRISsW0RLD what mental illness results in not wanting to work for $40 an hour? Because it seems really rampant in only a specific section of society and marxists.

I heard Hasan was going to be executed by a firing squad broadcasted to the world.
I got really excited until I realized it was a different Hasan. I should have realized it sooner because it wasn't the electric chair.

Here's the congressional record where they called it a "pact" and promised you'd be able to withdraw whatever you paid in when you retired.
@HlautBolli@memeticsisyphus@libertarian_ass The Court itself called SS “social insurance” and recognized benefits as “in one sense ‘earned.’” Congress having the power to change the law doesn't make decades of mandatory contributions and expectations meaningless.
@HlautBolli@memeticsisyphus@libertarian_ass Nobody is disputing Flemming v. Nestor. SCOTUS held that Social Security isn't a private annuity contract and Congress can change it. But that doesn't mean workers were promised nothing.
@memeticsisyphus The government absolutely did present Social Security as a contributory system where workers paid in with the expectation of receiving benefits.
President Carter explicitly called it a “pact” and said workers’ “hard-earned taxes” would be available upon retirement.
@memeticsisyphus@libertarian_ass as someone who HAS paid into SS, if I don't get back what I invested with the agreed upon interest, this means the government has stolen money from me.
The system is designed to have rolling responsibility where each generation helps fund the promised interest of the past.
@real_joe_di@SandyofCthulhu Durban has an estimated murder rate of about 65 per 100,000 residents
New York City maintains a low homicide rate of approximately 4.1 per 100,000 residents
Your perception does not reflect reality.
@argnarb@DocKilmer@253Krakoan@CoveredGeekly We'll, it would be good to see if he had some directing experience over several years, possibly his own film studio where he developed new technology and techniques specifically for this and fought to make it real.
You know, kind of like Peter Jackson.
