@Ng_x_x_sm 振り付けが昔よりも全然激しかったり素早かったりするので
転んだりケガをしないようにスニーカーソックスにするグループが増えてます。

@Namickey_Chappy 子供の肥満は同じの責任だけど 旦那の肥満は自己管理なのかなぁ？愛しているなら 食事管理を私ならしてあげるけど 夫婦間には他人には分からない事があるからね 何とも言えない 足が壊疽で切断した友人の旦那も居るし 透析になっちゃって会社辞めなくちゃならなくなった旦那もいるわね。

8年前私は大晦日のディズニーランドで、
泣きながら車椅子を押していました。
2型糖尿病、高血圧、脂質異常症、脂肪肝、
睡眠時無呼吸症候群、肥満症。
夫はまさに、生活習慣病のデパート状態。
120kg近くになった体重、
自力で歩けなくなった夫を乗せ、
私はただただ黙って車椅子を押していました。
夫が言いました。
「ごめんね、重いよね……」
私は答えました。
「ううん、大丈夫」
本当は、全然大丈夫じゃない。
重たい車椅子。
なかなか進まない人の列。
周りは、幸せそうな家族ばかり。
そこに思うように体が動かない夫の
イライラが重なります。
夫「ねえ、さっきのショップに戻って」
私「……え、あんなに遠いところまで？ 無理だよ」
夫「いいじゃん、少し戻るだけじゃん……」
私「……」
夫「……あ、ごめん。重いよね」
私「……いいよ。大丈夫だから」
心の底では、
「こんなデブ、捨ててしまいたい」
そう思っていましたっっｗ
大好きだったはずのパークが、
大嫌いになりそうでした。

it hasn't sunk in for most people. we already live in a post-scarcity society. UBI is already here.
basic package: disability, medicaid, food stamps etc
bonus package: literally getting paid for staying at home and hanging out with your relatives
extra bonus: if you are willing to commit fraud, pretend your kids are autistic and get paid for that. get paid for watching your neighbor's kid. pretend you are taking care of your grandma. fake hospice clinic. fake rehab clinic. fake therapy clinic.
giga bonus: during a time of crisis take advantage of PPP or CARES and open a fake business and get paid for existing
people are shocked when they learn that defense is the FIFTH largest line item in the budget. ahead of defense: social security ($1.6T), interest on debt ($1.1T) medicare ($1T), medicaid + ACA ($1T), AND THEN defense ($0.9T)
complain about defense all you like, but healthcare fraud is a way bigger factor. hundreds of billions per year.
this is only going to get worse, because the fraud is a structural part of the system – payouts to client groups in exchange for votes (normally D).
in the US, only 47% of the population actually works (fully 14% of the population is working age and does not work). retirees are 18% and children 22%.
the system I described above subsidizes 50m non-working people absolute minimum, but really it's far more because people that are paid to stay home and take care of their relatives are considered "workers"
of that 47% of "actual workers" maybe one third does real work, the rest are shuffling papers around or doing fake email jobs. so you have, rough math, 50 million actual workers supporting 300 million dependents. that's the nature of the economy today. it will only accelerate. eventually you will have 10 million using AI tools to do all the work and 340 million dependents.
the reason no one roots out the fraud is because it's the system that keeps our extremely fragile polity intact. the fraud is the UBI. the purpose of the system is what it does.
of course, it's a deeply unfair system, because you are allowed to commit fraud if you are a politically protected client group of the democrats. DOGE was killed faster than any government program ever, because it attempted to root out the fraud. if you are honest and unwilling to commit fraud, you are a huge loser in this system. your neighbor will have their mortgage subsidized by some government program. they will get favorable SBA loans due to DEI. they will open a fake hospice or autism clinic. they will get paid for taking care of their neighbor's kid and vice versa. the primary skill in the labor market is learning how to extract money from state and federal government programs, not gaining skills or making yourself employable. if you are just trying to work an ordinary wagie job you are a huge sucker. you are paying 40-50% effective all in taxes to everyone else who is a net taker.
the sad part is because AI is such a substantial productivity boost, it will actually keep this system going for a while longer, and maybe in perpetuity. AI boosts the 15% of the population that is actually productive so much that the remaining 85% can coast by. no one in charge will change this because they can't think of anything else. the political costs of a real UBI program are too great and we don't have the money for it anyway. so we will keep this covert fraud-based UBI program running indefinitely. unfortunately, if you are an honest wagie, you lose.

These numbers are extraordinary. NYC has lost jobs in almost every sector for the last 6 years except "health and social assistance", which is essentially old people putting their relatives on Medicaid's payroll.
