They didn’t steal it, they reduced it no?

They took it from people that paid into it. If you were due $500 mo and they sent you $50, wouldn't you feel like $450 was "stolen" from you?

eta: This was passed by Congress under the Reagan Admin in 1983.

The 118th Congress stopped the GOP from robbing Americans.

And of course that is exactly what happened.

There was a letter from the Federal government that said:


Dear Taxpayer:

Remember when we told you that we would give you $500 a month? Well we changed it to $50. So we took away a zero.

We figured nobody would complain about a zero.

Signed,

Your Democrat Government

Um, yes, X, the amount that they reduced was stolen, because I earned what they took away. They fucking stole it.

It sounds like they were overpaying you for a period of time and they corrected it.

You are lucky they did not ask for any of the money they overpaid back.

It was teachers, federal employees and a few other pockets of public sector employees.
Yeah that was a fuck job. I'm glad Biden straightened that out.

Yeah, dealing with real numbers is all "nitpicky".


Complaints are way better when you can exaggerate your grievances!!!
Like the way you exaggerate everything, and make up the rest?

Fucking moron.

Its ironic that Trump Musk & Ramaswathy claim there isn't enough money to fund social security & other programs. That they have to destroy social security in order to save it. However Trump has recently announced that he wants to buy Greenland @LotusBud

So if there isn't enough money to help Americans then how come there is enough money for Empire Building & to buy Greenland? And taking over that island would require billions of dollars to build infrastructure, set up military installations to establish a US presence there.

So where is the money gonna come from to take over Greenland? And will this benefit the American people? Or just the corporations and the Elites? Does Trump intend to cut programs such as social security to pay for this purchase?

The incoming administration claims the US is drowning in debt but then has enough money for Empire building. Perhaps then, this narrative about an exploding National Debt is a Big Lie as well?

They're not taking over anything, and Biden just protected the larges amount of land in our country's history.

There will be no "drill baby drill"'

I'm starting to believe that the US being unable to pay its National debt is a lie & is actually intentional. Elon Musk is said to be worth $400 billion and doesn't pay his taxes. Nor does Warren Buffet Larry Ellison Jeff Bezos and scores of other billionaires. So people like these hide their wealth & pass on the debt burden to at least 90% of Americans who see their benefits cut. Meanwhile Trump pulls this rabbit outta the hat to buy Greenland while financial resources are supposedly thin @jack

Greenland is becoming a sovereign nation and Canada got rid of Trudeau mainly because he met with trump and they're not putting up with any more of his bullshit.

Actually I fear that if Greenland becomes independent they'll fall into Trump's trap & get swallowed up by the US.

Being part of Denmark may offer greater protection for Greenland than becoming an independent nation which wouldn't last. The historical parallel is Newfoundland which couldn't make it as a country, became insolvent and was eventually forced to become part of Canada.

I think Trump wants Greenland to swallow the bait and eventually be forced to join the US.

I understand the sentiment but if Greenland is smart, they'll use their abundant natural resources to build their nation.

Denmark is useless except as a Russian barrier for NATO (just my opinion)

If Greenland remains part of Denmark they also have at least some protection of the EU which of course in an obstacle to Trump & his friends. Why do you think the NeoCons always trash Europe? Because it's an obstacle in their plans for hegemony and dominance. W Bush did that now Trump Elon and the rest of the NeoCons continue that narrative. Without Denmark & the EU backing but Greenland is nothing & can be flattened and taken overnight. Theyll make a huge mistake if they declare outright Independence from Denmark.

Trump is like a modern refined version of Hitler. Toned down but nevertheless similar in his expansion aspirations and Empire building

He doesn't care about your country and its citizens either just some manifest destiny to fatten his wallet and become more powerful

He's going to die in office anyway, and I suspect it will be a planned event.

But could you handle JD Vance as your new President? I'd think theyd have to impose martial law to legitimize his presidency. Vance looks like and reminds of vomit after a drunk has thrown up in the toilet. He's the most unpopular incoming VP & hasn't even assumed office yet. I don't think the US could hold together if that guy became your President. There'd be riots everywhere

Vance is an idiot, but he'd be more "controllable" than Trump, and they'd get more things done that they wanted.

Fighting in the streets is going to happen this year or next either way.

This will turn most American people against MAGA if it happens.

Americans aren't going to tolerate the destruction and disorder from MAGA.
