I still do not understand why an outside "agency" is allowed to make changes to anything. Does anyone remember when Trump first took office and everyone kept saying Musk would just be making recommendations?
Also, those of us that receive disability payments from social security are not allowed to save money, or we risk losing the payments altogether.
They are not allowed but, the only democrat fighting it is an 83 year old senator from Vermont.
meanwhile all the living democratic presidents have zero to say.
The dems used to have balls. Now the only new generation party member that has any balls is a women named AOC.
Doesnt help any of us that the democratic party's geriatric make-a-wish foundation leadership is actively trying to make the party more right leaning to win back the donors they lost after pushing kamala because they think she was "too left"
Surely, it couldn't have been their attempt to court and fellate the conservatives that caused this problem. Citizens won't contribute to or vote a party they feel is acting against their interests, and corporate donors don't need to waste money on a party incapable of winning anything other than a participation trophy.
Naw. To them, it's nothing like that. Trump won (by less votes than last time), so that's clearly what the public wants. More bigotry! More oligarchy! More tech-bro-crats!
Incompetent bootlickers.
The fact that they're forced to spend down every penny they have every month is so fucking needlessly cruel and stupid!
Shit I have to borrow money on the regular, it's not enough in the first place. Saving is definitely worth a try if you're able, but there is so much I already had to spend on and now I'm also preparing and organizing. Its hard :(
