Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said Saturday that one of his top priorities, once he takes control of the chamber’s Social Security Subcommittee in January, will be to lift the cap on taxable income that funds the program and increase benefit payments by at least $2400 per year.
Top priority should be removing the cap on deductions so it’s funded.
Then once the wealthy are paying into it, increase payments.
We could probably spend less money on the baby killing machine that makes psychopath soldiers.
What!? And let our military shrink to only 600% the size of the next largest military ?
It’s funny how some people, (not you frisbird) who claim to be lefties and say they hate Trump, go ape shit the moment you touch the military budget.
Fucking posers.
“I needed education in my shitty country so I killed people but that makes me okay because my country is shitty! I’m innocent”
Why is there no guillotine emoji?
Same reason the 🔫 emoji renders as a squirt gun these days, probably.
I would be happy with a squirt guillotine
We can obviously spend less on the military, but that’s not how OASDI is funded…
You also don’t know anything about the military apparently
They can free up that money and allocate it elsewhere.
ETA Pentagon never passed an audit.
The military industrial complex is not complex if you have half a brain.
I really need to start checking account ages…

You’re running around saying:
And calling other people psychopaths
I always check account ages. Anything your age is suspiciously part of the problem.
Enjoy the country you definitely fought to make like this.

So now I fought against the American military?
