@BanditPickss@Beno10_MFC It could be true but with math you need the simplest answer first. You can’t assume it’s just the difference between the two integers just because all three known examples are only 2 apart. Your logic would only follow if another defined example had two integers > or < 2 apart.
@d0_6n@TheMaineWonk Yeah, it is awful. That would mean he fucked average Americans who were buying and selling goods, to make more money only for the wealthy (above average at least) investors.
If he planned it, it’s fraud and theft.
@lsferguson Does no one understand that minor children of deceased parents get a portion of the deceased parent’s benefit until they turn 18?
In fact, disabled children (even once they’re adults) can claim on a deceased parent’s benefits.
SS isn’t just for retirement, it’s also insurance!
@floridaborn0613 @MattGertz Do any other heads of state actively fight alongside their military? No. Putting on a suit would normalize the idea that he should be negotiating anything with Russia, the foreign country that invaded Ukraine sovereign territory.
@brucefenton@MattGertz So what if it’s for optics? It would be normalizing the situation he’s in. His country was invaded by a neighboring country and he has to fight the delusional thinking that Ukraine is ANYTHING BUT an attack by a foreign nation.
@asajinfinity@MattGertz A suit and taking time to do it would be disingenuous and normalize the situation like he is playing politics instead of getting things done.
@JacobNimble@erickson32725 @Matthewtravis08 They aren’t. Plenty of people had stellar reviews and were overqualified but the letter still said they couldn’t prove they hadn’t shown that their work had been good enough and/or that they lack the necessary skills or experience.
@JacobNimble @KimDex1 @blackhammer_1@erickson32725 @Matthewtravis08 Nailed it!
I know for a fact that this was already the case in 2017, perhaps earlier. I don’t know why it’s a thing now and why people think this would save any money.
@erickson32725 So what’s your point, Robert? All levels of government = police, fire, public health, infrastructure, etc. This comment is irrelevant to the federal situation. States work and private companies work off federal grants, like foster care, which aren’t being paid either, my friend.
@elonmusk Real government workers are going to have very different responses based on the type of job they have. If they only answer calls or do work that does not have a measurable output or activity tracking, no. Sometimes that isn’t the point with those jobs.
