When social security was created a lot of seniors really did die destitute in the gutter, but nowadays things are like look man you can’t expect me to pay property taxes on my mansion when social security barely goes up every year
White guy shot by "youths" during a teen takeover and the Hindu 7-11 clerks refuse to help him.
What did you think diversity meant? If not a low trust Favela with hellish characteristics?
100 years of conservation. Wiped out in 10.
Appalachian families harvested ginseng since Daniel Boone. Illegal aliens stripped the mountainsides clean. Every plant. Non-sustainable.
I documented it in 2012. They blocked the paper. “Too controversial.”
Game wardens will ruin your life for a fish that’s an inch too small but won’t say shit when Indians pull up 10x the quota.
The law only applies to White men.
Get used to it.
You’re working hard and sending half your paycheck to Uncle Sam, while Nigerian chieftains are pulling millions out of Medicaid and building golden palaces in the deepest jungles of Africa
America is being looted
Westerners still operate as if someone that’s physically their neighbor is actually their neighbor
These people see you as a separate tribe to exploit
Start viewing them the same way, and acting on it
He’s 100% correct and this is the messaging to push.
High food prices? It’s because there’s 30 million people that shouldn’t be here.
High housing cost? It’s because there’s 30 million people that shouldn’t be here.
High medical cost? It’s because there’s 30 million people that shouldn’t be here.
"inflation? you mean the thing that makes sure my home value always goes up, & my 401K always goes up?"
"You say it'll be a big problem in 2034? In eight years? When I'm 87?"
I’m sorry, but the math just DOESN’T work anymore.
A lot of jobs are still paying somewhere between $15 and $21 an hour. Work 40 hours a week and you’re making roughly $2,600 to $3,640 a month BEFORE taxes.
Now go pay $1,500+ for rent. Throw in a car payment, utilities, gas, groceries and all the other random crap that somehow costs twice what you remember it costing.
And that’s before childcare. Car insurance. Health insurance. Student loans. Credit cards. An emergency. A flat tire. A trip to the doctor. Or God forbid you actually want to save some money and enjoy your life once in a while.
I’ve been a financial planner for almost 20 years, so I’m obviously a HUGE believer in budgeting and living below your means.
But there comes a point where telling someone making $18 an hour to “just budget better” is ridiculous.
You can’t Dave Ramsey your way out of $3,500 of monthly expenses when you’re bringing home $2,600.
Sometimes the problem isn’t the budget.
The income simply doesn’t cover the cost of being alive anymore.
Boomers deindustrialized the country, so hyper growth is no longer possible. Hyperinflation and asset seizures are coming, around when the debt hits $50 trillion in 2030-2034.
Left wing patronage networks: “oh you’re a Dominican drug addict sex offender? I have an NGO that finds people like you internships in Congress”
Right wing patronage networks: “you have an engineering degree from Stanford? Well my cousin is digging a ditch in Tulsa. $18/hr”
The whole point is that the $40 trillion in debt is never going to be paid off. If the debt was going to be solved, it would've been solved around 2005-2010. We've passed the point of no return. The eventual solution will be to hyperinflate the currency. Around 2030-2034, there's going to be a fiscal crisis. But until then, Boomers are going to keep robbing as much as possible. Because the political intransigence is causing the fiscal insolvency, our only choice is to seize power through gangster politics. Guys like you are holding onto principles which expired in the 1930s when FDR built up the permanent managerial bureaucracy.
If you’re wondering why old people now aren’t like the sweet and charming old people we millennials grew up with, it’s because they’re Boomers now. Our old people were from the Greatest and Silent generations. These old people are Boomers.
The US government is in a debt crisis and the only way out is for old people who are already obscenely rich to stop voting for the government to give them more money. In other words, there is no way out.
