Tired of this excuse. First of all, social security is not something you “pay into.” If it were, you wouldn’t need younger people to “pay into it” in order to get your check. But you do. Because this is a Ponzi scheme, not a retirement account. What you really mean to say is that your money was stolen from you — which it was — and now you want to steal from younger people to get restitution. That’s the actual case you’re making and it’s exactly as morally deranged as it sounds.
Second, your generation continually for decades voted for politicians who would keep the scheme going. You might not have invented social security, but you damn sure made certain it kept going. Why should younger people have to pay the price for the shitty policies you supported?
Third, you “paid into” social security in a different time. The country is now bankrupted and 40 trillion dollars in debt, and basic things like housing are prohibitively expensive. It wasn’t like that when you were young, because your generation of leadership created this problem.
So the theme here is that there are a bunch of problems you guys either created or contributed to. You can choose to pay the price for that now, or force your grandchildren to pay the price so you can live comfortably until you die and leave them holding the bag. You’ve chosen the latter, and I think that’s wrong. Simple as that.
Stealing from young families to pay much higher net worth Boomers is immoral and ridiculous. Young families already have to deal with an economy where everything is exponentially more expensive than it was for Boomers at the same age. Older people clamoring to raise taxes on the young, on top of it all, is just perverse.
89% percent of baby boomers back higher taxes on younger Americans as a means to protect their Social Security benefits.
84% of those aged 55 to 64 also support tax hikes on young Americans who, on average, suffer an inferior quality of life to their parents.

There are a lot of great Boomers out there. But they didn't build this country into a superpower. They brought us the sexual revolution and the divorce epidemic and mass migration, and plunged the country into trillions of dollars of debt in the process. They will leave the country much poorer and less stable than it was when they inherited it. That's just a fact.
Israel.
Ex-CIA officer John Kiriakou said in a March 2026 podcast with Michael Franzese that an unnamed Trump confidant told him roughly 10,000 remaining JFK files would never be released because every one points directly at Israel, tied to Kennedy opposing its nuclear program at Dimona. The account is secondhand and unverified.

All too predictable…
US Senate VOTES DOWN RESOLUTION seeking REPORT on DEATHS of 9 AMERICANS in WEST BANK

Unpopular opinion: there shouldn’t be political parties. You cannot judge a man or woman based on what group they claim to be a part of. Judge them on their personal beliefs and actions.
White men named Brad don't typically commit welfare fraud.
I’d recommend you start with the baby-momma with a BMW who just got back from her Carnival Cruise.
Hear me out… perhaps the Republican leadership shouldn’t have shut down Congress until after the election just to stop the rest of the Epstein files from being released.
