OMG this is the best video we've seen all week. Zach Foust traveled from Milwaukee to Nancy Pelosi’s office to present her with an award. “We're giving her a lifetime a achievement award in trading.” “It’s such a remarkable award.” “She's gotten better than hedge funds for so many years it’s so remarkable. And to do that as a public servant, it's like you're working overtime for us, the Americans. Nancy, this one big shout out names for you, Nancy. You did great. We're gonna do the numbers, guys. So she came into Congress at 1987 worth $3 million. How much you worth now worth now? $317 million.” REPOST and blast this EVERYWHERE! #thinblueline #lawenforcement

@MarcoFoster_ FDR built camps to detain Japanese Americans. Lincoln jailed newspaper editors and suspended Habeas Corpus. But yeah, orange man bad. Hanoi Jane can go to Hell.

Jane Fonda: “This is the first time in the history of the US that an authoritarian regime has broken through. Worldwide historians who study these things all agree it has never happened so fast in any industrialized democracy. He is moving to consolidate very very fast which means right now we have to use the tools we have to stop it”

@ennui365 It’s the Dept of Education, created by a democrat, that is at the root of the student loan debacle.

🚨BREAKING: A massive crowd of people have gathered in London in support of the American left’s No Kings protest. The country that literally has a King is protesting against America who doesn’t. Can’t make this stuff up.

Senator Patty Murray posted this yesterday. Every number in it is accurate. The post is still a lie. Here is the technique. The Social Security wage cap is real. Earnings above $184,000 are not subject to the 12.4% payroll tax. A billionaire does pay a fraction of a percent in effective Social Security tax rate. The math is correct. What Senator Murray did not post: Social Security benefits are also capped. High earners do not collect more because they do not pay more. The contribution cap and the benefit cap are the same architectural decision. You cannot lift one without addressing the other. A billionaire who pays 0.002% into Social Security also collects the same capped benefit as everyone else above the threshold. The system was designed this way deliberately. She presented half of a structural equation as if it were the complete picture. This is called cherry-picking wrapped in perception management. It’s designed to manipulate the audience. The numbers are real. The picture they produce is false. The sophistication of the technique is that correcting it requires more words than deploying it. Senator Murray needed three sentences. This post needed three paragraphs. That asymmetry is not accidental. It is the whole point. When someone shows you accurate numbers that produce an outraged conclusion, ask what is not in the frame.
Senator Patty Murray@PattyMurray

If you make under $184k, you pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate. Everything after that cap is exempt from the tax. So if you make $1 million per year, you pay about 2.2%. And it's 0.002% for billionaires. If we lifted the cap, Social Security could be funded for decades.

@AnnRaybon @GinaSaysSo Which is the argument for replacing the current system with an enforced 403b which can be somewhat self guided in where your contributions are invested. Not any different than voluntary deferred income programs in both the public and private sectors.

@GinaSaysSo If I had been about to invest my 6% along with the required 6% from the employer, I would have a far greater retirement check than the measly ~2k I get now.

Please stop with, 'Social Security was not meant to be your retirement income, it was meant to be a supplement.' It's insulting to tens of millions of people who worked hard and honest their entire lives and rely on Social Security AS their retirement income. So get off your high horse and understand that taxing Social Security when it was ALREADY taxed is HURTING the people it claims to be helping. And, even more plain and more simple, for those of us who like to boil things down, Social Security is a cesspool of fraud. To those who claim it's crazy to want a lump sum payment in the form of a REFUND for every dollar we put into this, take a look at how government protected our 'investment' in ourselves, and then talk to me about CRAZY. Government TOOK our money and misappropriated the funds. SOMETIMES intentionally. ALWAYS without threat of punishment. This is CRIMINAL, period.

@IrrefutableV @GinaSaysSo True, but not the entire truth. Social Security is derived directly from money taken through payroll taxes. Therefore recipients are being taxed on government revenue. The lack of honesty about this giant Ponzi Scheme makes me incredibly sad.

@GinaSaysSo I hate to break it to you, but SS is not taxed until you receive it. So contrary to your post, it was not "already taxed" when you get it. The fact there is such a lack of financial literacy makes me incredibly sad.

@Nahanchi7068 @RepDavid It should have been privatized decades ago. Make it a tax funded, self guided 403b just like deferred income programs. Of course if they did that Rep Dave and his cronies couldn’t use the money as a slush fund.

@RepDavid To fix a problem, you have to first say out loud the obvious truth, SS is a Ponzi scheme if the highest order; if you are serious, you don’t try to figure out how to make a criminal enterprise more efficient

My little Matthew is 3. This country needs 104% of his lifetime earnings just to cover promises Washington already made. In less than 6.5 years, the Social Security trust fund is empty. In less than 6.5 years, the Medicare trust fund is empty. We will double poverty of seniors. That is the morality of this place now.
