The max one can pay into social security per year is $10,453.20.
If you did that every year from age 18 until retirement, the max you’ll get from SS is $4,873 /month.
If you put it into an S&P index fund instead, you would receive $32,583 per month.
Social Security is a scam.

Honestly, if seeing this third world Hispanic who was in our country illegally living in a house like this doesn’t radicalize you, nothing will.

The man who was fatally shot by an ICE agent in Houston was NOT the target of their immigrant operation, DHS announced.

Crazy idea:
Rather than creating a wealth tax, let’s stop sending existing tax dollars to people defrauding government programs

We are not India, we are not Mexico. Southern Americans have our own culture and I’m sick of seeing it diluted for leftists and foreigners. GTFO.

@LibertyCalling @Heinlein_reader @bankertobuilder yea he was, 20 illegalls will pool their money to rent a single apartment. 20 illegals can pay more than 1 american for rent, and they use 100% of the apartments resources and cause chaos

These starter homes are only $575k
Anyone working a basic job making $160k a year can afford this
Why don't young people want to buy these?

@Heinlein_reader @bankertobuilder So you think he was competing for rent with people making $4/hour.
Sure, Jan
English
@LibertyCalling @bankertobuilder No. He’s mostly competing with H1B temp workers who drive up housing costs.
When he was renting he was competing with illegals who drive up rent prices.

@Heinlein_reader @bankertobuilder You think your kid is competing for housing with folks delivering DoorDash on e-bike?

We have let down our children’s generation. My son makes 2.5 times what I made at his age, but similar homes cost 3.5 times more than we paid for ours.
I blame unrestricted immigration for driving up home costs, but whatever the reason, we’ve failed to give Gen Z the opportunities we had.

@Ankara_inc @Lou_inc It’s not all because of taxes. $1M is typically the annuity winnings.

Caller: Dave, I just won $1 million on a scratch-off lottery ticket, but after taking the lump sum and paying taxes, I’ll receive a little over $400,000.
Dave Ramsey: First of all, congratulations! Now don’t make any big decisions until you’ve hired a good tax professional. Don’t rely on the lottery office or internet advice.
Caller: Our first plan is to pay off our house and $23,000 in credit card debt.
Dave Ramsey: I love that. Becoming debt-free is a great start. After that, sit down and create a written plan for every dollar that’s left.
Caller: What should we do with the rest?
Dave Ramsey: Invest it wisely with the help of a trusted financial advisor. If you invest around $300,000 and leave it alone, it could grow substantially over time.
Caller: So we shouldn’t start spending like we’re rich?
Dave Ramsey: Exactly. Treat this money with respect, not excitement. A healthy fear and a solid plan can turn this lottery win into generational wealth instead of a short-lived windfall.

To everyone saying that it will be harder for Susan Collins to win in Maine now that Platner is gone, I disagree. I’m pretty sure most of the state is too embarrassed by their Nazi love to actually stick with the party, Democrats, who embraced Der Oyster Feuhrer

I am a J6er.
I became single for the first time in twenty years when my ex-wife divorced me over J6. She couldn’t bear the doors slamming shut — family and friends turning their backs because of me.
Dating is brutal enough. But my J6 story sends most women running, even the conservative ones. Most Americans have no idea the raw liberal hate and violence that erupts inside families the moment a J6er’s name is spoken.
Every J6er is fighting to rebuild — jobs, relationships, a place in society — against a tidal wave of lies and mind-shattering negative press designed to destroy us.
We have been persecuted to the brink. The left celebrates our pain and quietly hopes for our destruction.
But reintegration and rebuilding in the face of such hate demands something stronger than rage. It demands faith and love — the only weapons that can truly defend the spirit of the downtrodden.
As I rebuild my life with love and advocacy, I will keep fighting for the truth, love, and faith that called me to DC on that cold January morning.
I am one of the lucky ones. In my fifties, single, with a new life ahead. New love and support. Beautiful new blonde farmgirl girlfriend supporting me, and i am finding serenity and hope toiling in the soil on her lavender farm.
By God’s grace, I am rising.
God Bless the J6ers!

@Nalin_Haley Terrorism has a specific definition. This ain’t it. This is reprehensible. But it’s not terrorism.
English
This is not a "teen takeover" this is domestic terrorism and all who participated need to be locked away for a long time.
Our South Carolina Law Enforcement is some of the best in the country and it’s sad that this is how they’re treated for all their sacrifice and hard work.
No Jumper@nojumper
A female police officer in North Charleston, South Carolina was jumped by a group of teenagers during what is being called a "teen takeover."

Can someone explain to me why Democrat socialists want to abolish prisons? What’s the line of thinking here - we should just have pedophiles, rapists and murderers open in society around our kids?
English
@NYCMayor Fuck you!
I hope New Yorkers who read this drop their AC as low as possible
Government NEVER had the right to invade the citizen's private life so intimately as you're attempting to do
English
New York: it's hot out there, and the power grid is working overtime to keep us cool.
Set your AC to 78 degrees, turn off lights/electronics you're not using, and unplug what you can.
Our City is doing its part too: maintaining the 78 degrees rule in our buildings, dimming/turning off our lights during peak electricity demand, asking private partners to do the same, and powering down non-essential equipment.
A stable grid means the AC stays on, and lives are saved. Let's ease demand — and get through the heat — together.

@Notwokenow You’re a facist. lol. Like you want Brown Shirts. Not ice.
English
I want ICE at the hospitals.
I want ICE at the grocery store.
I want ICE at the laundromat.
I want ICE at schools.
I definitely want ICE at polling places.
I want ICE at every communist political rally.
I want ICE at every soccer field.
I want ICE at the grocery store.
I want ICE at the public library.
I want ICE at every DMV in this country.
Everywhere.

@DawnsMission The only mental illness here is judgmental bitch syndrome.
How dare you judge someone you don’t know. You don’t know what who they are or what they are going through.
English
Spotted a woman inside Trader Joe’s wearing a mask.
Stepped outside to load my groceries and there she was, mask on in 100° weather with nobody else around.
At this point, it has to be a mental illness, would you agree?
English
@Nalin_Haley @pegobry_en Thank you Nalin. She is just a kid doing kid things and those creeps need to chill out.
English
Uhhh probably cuz she lives there? I used to say the same thing. Whenever I was tired at school I said "ugh I just wanna go home" not "ugh I just wanna go to the South Carolina Governors Mansion." Yall are attacking a kid just cuz of who her grandfather is and that’s disgusting.
Republicans against Trump@RpsAgainstTrump
Why is Donald Trump’s granddaughter calling the White House “my house”? It belongs to the American people.
English
@Nalin_Haley lol. Thats what you’d call FDR. No one takes your seriously.
English
I’m tired of hearing about "freedom" and the "constitution" we are literally being infiltrated by Anti-American communists. These people don’t deserve rights. Any serious country would have these people imprisoned. If this is the product of democracy I want no part of it.

BREAKING: Rep. Espaillat concedes. Mamdani-backed socialists have officially gone 3/3 and won all of their respective Democratic primaries for U.S. House in New York tonight. Their positions are some of the most extreme & far left Dems have seen: Darializa Avila Chevalier (NY-13): Abolish prisons, abolish ICE, abolish borders, defund the police, and “all deportations are wrong”, including for violent criminals. She has called the U.S. an “effing disgrace”, and said in a prior social media post “I forgot to get napkins so I just wiped my hand on the American flag behind me.” Claire Valdez (NY-7): Grant citizenship and voting rights to illegal aliens, use taxpayer funds for all transgender treatments, & eliminate private health insurance. Brad Lander (NY-10): Abolish ICE, forgive all student loans (almost $2 trillion worth), expand the Supreme Court. Mamdani gets a clean sweep, a bad night for Hakeem Jeffries, and big questions for where the Democratic Party is heading.

@Gam_3339 @MeghanMcCain You literally have to swear an oath to the Constitution when you’re sworn in. Lol. Not like that stops Trump from trashing the Constitution tho
English
@MeghanMcCain These people have no business and government positions in America. I’m with the congressman who says that you need to swear in allegiance to America & her people in order to become someone who represents the American people. but I’m sure they would just lie.

I have a problem with the fact that the woman who just won her primary in New York and will be a member of Congress went to a rally on October 8th celebrating the slaughter of Jews. There are a lot of my jewish friends who have a problem with that. This isn't hard.
Sophie Vershbow@svershbow
Brad Lander and Micah Lasher are Jewish New Yorkers being sent to congress by Jewish New Yorkers and non-Jewish non-New Yorkers seem to have a real problem with that allegedly on behalf of...Jewish New Yorkers.
