@LouisPunished You pussies today can’t dodge bullets? I had to dodge bullets in Vietnam when I vacationed there in 1988. Slack jawed cowards is what the youth of today is!

Boomers will find this house on Zillow for like $185,000 and tell you there's no housing crisis, you just demand too much because you think you're too good to live here.

Cleveland realtor is shot at as he films an ad for a home. Good luck selling it now.

@EV_Trapper Sounds like her 6 ungrateful children and numerous ungrateful grandchildren should chip in or she should get back to work
English
My 95 year old grandmother pays $2000 in property taxes & another $3000 in school taxes every single year on a house that was built in 1850 that is falling apart.
She was widowed in 1973 & as a single mother of 6 worked everyday of her life until she was in her mid 70s. She gets $10,000 a year from the federal government to live on, but once you subtract $5000 in taxes she is left with $5000 for the rest of the year to buy food, supplies & bills.
Are people really this uneducated on this issue? Oh my god.

FYI seniors already get homestead exemptions, lowered assessments, tax credits, and deferral plans to help with property taxes based on their state and income level
English
@cremieuxrecueil They should just remove interest on loans altogether for us old folks. We paid our fair share of interest already! Let us take absurd loans out and enjoy our twilight years
English
She's also against taxing loans on boats
She basically stands for luxury boomer lifestyles
Nancy Mace@NancyMace
Our seniors should not pay property taxes.
English
@jrclunie @texasrunnerDFW Sounds like your accountant is a homosexual, I haven’t paid taxes since 1987
English
Sorry to disagree.
Well, no, I'm NOT.
We people over 60, despite your ASSumption live on fixed income.
We still contribute to the Federal Government, at the SAME rates as those less than 60. And since the money we get is at least partially generated by taxes, we're paying taxes ON TOP of taxes.
We have NO ONE in our house that use most of the services property taxes cover.
So, yeah, we deserve a break from property taxes.
Unless you're suggesting WE can't enjoy home ownership and have to go live in a tent somewhere. I don't know about others but I STILL HAVE A MORTGAGE.
If you actually believe what you post then I hope you look at it later when YOU get to MY age.
English
44% of US homeowners are older than 60
She is effectively asking you to put 100% of the local county services tax burden on 56% of the people—people who are also still in the workforce paying income taxes, mortgages, and daycare tuition
This is horrible policy
Nancy Mace@NancyMace
Our seniors should not pay property taxes.

@DamnSkippy_2020 @texasrunnerDFW You’re god damn right skippy!
Fuck the youth. I don’t have enough money coming from my pension, SS, and 401k to pay for my grandchildren’s public schools!
It’s not like they pay for my Medicare and Social Security.
English
@texasrunnerDFW That's because we've owned our homes for many, many years.
Older people aren't buying homes in their 60s-70s.
We don't have young kids any more- they are adults.
Why should we pay for schools?
English
@mhicil1017 @texasrunnerDFW Sounds like this hypothetical geriatric should have worked harder in their youth! They deserve absolutely nothing. Me and my wife are both retired and we can pay the property taxes on our 7 vacation homes. If they can’t pay, SEND THEM BACK TO WORK!
English
@texasrunnerDFW @DamnSkippy_2020 So you're ok with a 65 plus year old person on a fixed income losing the home they have lived in for 40 years for the greater good? Do I have that right?
English
@ChadHarberts @IHSAA Another journalist bitching that they didn’t get the red carpet treatment. Events cost money to put on, no reason for IHSAA or Waterloo to subsidize journalists. Especially for one to ride around on a golf cart.
English
Somebody please explain to me how a Waterloo public golf course, supported by taxpayers, can justify $52 for a one-day golf cart rental for the @IHSAA state tourney. Not to play golf. Just to follow the tourney as a media member and take pics. That’s a bad optic.

@demiurgently @h_thoreson You clearly dont understand fb market.
"Free" means message for price.
"Is this still available" is asking if you are going to bother responding.
"How much" is asking if you are willing to come down yet after your post has been sitting for weeks and no one's buying.
English
@Dawnipoooh Preach Dawn! My father’s life was fucking terrible. Thankfully, I didn’t have to live like that and never faced true adversity in my life. When my father got old, I shoved him into the cheapest nursing home I could find. I thank god everyday for that man.
English
@EliasGravesLit Sounds like your dad and grandfather was a weak homosexual who couldn’t provide for his family
English
Dear Gen Z: My mother ate LARD sandwiches when she was a girl. She lived in a dirt floor shack with no electricity or indoor plumbing. She wore dresses made from flour sacks. Fuck you and your whining about the cost of a mocha latte.
English
@uncledoomer Why aren’t these punks going to Branson, MO? Branson is being killed because of selfish Millennials thinking they’re too good for silver dollar city!
English
@Nessakins_ Your mom had to work? Sounds like you had a weak homosexual dad. If a wife has to work, it’s because the husband is too busy having gay sex to provide for his family
English
Yea my parents really enjoyed each having to work a 50hr workweek to pay the 13% interest rate on their starter home when I was a kid in the 80’s. Get outta here with this revisionist nonsense.
Crispr (Third-Worldist) 🌍📉@CollapseAnime
boomers who spent the 80s and 90s drunk driving from work to cheap restaurants to eat 5$ steak dinners on their way to drunk driving home to their cheap houses bought on one income want me to eat cut up hot dogs on crackers
English
@twesley06 @g0lden8ge Only boomer males. Women are far too stupid to be rich and if they are, it’s because they murdered their rich husband.
English
$876 buys a lot of cheese sandwiches sweetheart. Time to pull up those bootstraps.
MatrixMysteries@MatrixMysteries
“I worked for 36 YEARS. Paid taxes EVERY year. I believed in this country.” Now she’s outside the Social Security office, staring at a tiny $876 check in disbelief. “After a LIFETIME of work — this is all I get. Meanwhile, billions are sent to people who never paid a dime.”
English
@Amyisthebomb Sounds like your father was a real lazy slacker. I let my kids drink as much Coca Cola as possible, paid for itself as I retired of my Coca Cola stock. You’re fruitcake of a father probably invested in Pets dot Com
English
@GuntherGunin @Peef___ @NEETzscheIDDQD Cooking is a homosexual man’s activity. I’m very confused why you keep bragging about being able to do a woman’s job. We should have never let you fruit cakes get married
English
@Peef___ @NEETzscheIDDQD Yeah i did that at 25? Learn to cook
English
Boomers think "eat like a gulag inmate" is a solution to the problem of "lunch out costs $28."
Louis vil LeGun@LouisvilleGun
This is the heart of the “I must eat $28 lunches, fuck brown bagging” tantrums They don’t want a solution. They want to complain.

@r_u_thinking @douglasbpierce @JDRockwellJr Of course your fuckin pea brain would think a Japanese car is better than an American made car. Go back to where you came from gook!
English
@douglasbpierce @JDRockwellJr you bought a honda
he bought a chevy
'nuff said
English
How delusional do you have to be to post 100k+ mile cars that are 20 years old and costing $8,000, and think that somehow is proof that kids these days are lazy or entitled?
These were like $500 when I was a kid. That's 16x more expensive. Entry wages didn't 16x.
DOTP now!
LibertyJ@LibertyJen
This was legit a 5 second search on Auto Trader. All these cars have less than 200k miles. All under $7k
English
@James10Archie @FuckKoroks @WomanDefiner Bullshit? I lost my brother in a blizzard on the way to school in July 1952. You see back then we didn’t get pansy ass summer vacation, we were at school 365 days a year. We didn’t even have summer back then either, the only season was winter and it snowed everyday.
English
@FuckKoroks @WomanDefiner They all walked ten miles uphill both ways in a snow storm to get to school everyday. It's mostly bullshit.
English
You should want better for people than what you got.
The sign of a damaged person is someone who wants everyone to go through the same catastrophe they went through.
Stop wanting the worst for everyone.

@WomanDefiner I’ve had hand me down socks and underwear when I was little 10 people in the house. Worked w my hands all my life. Same parents from day one Understand the thoughts but life is hard for many reasons No empathy for the minority lazy youth of today
English
@Unc_Boo @WomanDefiner I bet the only thing you worked with your hands was your dick you lazy slackin Gen X’er. You wore hand me down socks? I didn’t have shoes. 10 siblings? I had 18. Same parents? My parents got divorced 4 times. Your life was 100x easier than mine. No empathy for slackin Gen X

Americans under 45 are living through Tougher times right now than any generation since the greatest generation who lived through the great depression.
We can all give advice until we're blue in the face most of us never experienced real decline in the way zoomer's and young Millennials have. Every piece of advice and criticism ignores we have handed our kids a broken and decaying country. We have failed. I include myself in that group because I'm smart enough to know better.
English
@mapleblooded I interacted with them daily, I exclusively hired Mexicans to work in my warehouse with no AC. Those Mexicans I tell ya, grateful to be paid a nickel a day, unlike ungrateful kids of today.
Once a week, I’d let the hardest working Mexican sit in my office with AC for 5 minutes

Question for Boomers.
How many temporary foreign workers did you interact with and share the infrastructure and public services with when you were becoming established?
How many 35 year-olds from x country were filling the entry-level positions?
