re: The debate.  Imo, both lost

Trump:  nothing new = “old”.  His Worst fail - Didn’t really freshly elucidate policies

Harris: Didn’t run far away from Biden and certainly didn’t run far enough from her herself and her own past ... ie now ‘running’ as a moderate as a moderate (and being ‘painted’ by the media as a moderate) when she has always been the opposite of a moderate before... big lies are easier than little lies, etc, etc.  Hm ... more of the   "We got 70 days to act right, y'all. Now, after 70 days, we can go back to acting crazy, right?" Rev. Mark Thompson on Day 3 of the DNC in Chicago.  Her Worst fail - Didn’t really reveal any policies...

In a way, the debate was 3 against 1... Examples:  Trump was ‘fact’ checked 5 times.  Harris was ‘fact’ checked 0 times - while she told at least 7 little stinkers of her own that also should have been ‘fact’ checked... not to mention the big lies about what she want’s for / to do to the ‘republic’, the constitution / bill of rights.  ...such as - just bcse she has a gun does not mean she wants you to have one... etc, etc. 

Anyways, they all 4 delivered their lines and ALL of us lost.  ... just sayin’

One more thing re: the debate - no one mentioned the national 'debt', / the printing of  fake money that literally IS the massive inflation?

No one mentioned the 100 nations planning to 'join' the BRICS starting in 2025... and boy are they ever in for a shock...

ALL of us lost in that debate, americans, europeans, indians, middle easterners, mexicans, asians, australians, etc etc .  ... just sayin’

The income tax saga is even a better example than this but is too long and complicated so...

 

 Things every US citizen should know and remember about Social Security

 

Short History Lesson on Your Social Security Card . . . Just in case some of you didn't know this... and it doesn't matter whether you are ‘progressive or ‘conservative . . . If you don't believe, Facts are Facts ... it's easy to check out...

Franklin Roosevelt, a progressive Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program.

He promised:
1.) That participation in the Program would be Completely voluntary.
No longer Voluntary

2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program.
Now 7.65% on the first $90,000.

3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year.
No longer tax deductible

4.) That the money the participants put into the independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program.
Under Democrat President Johnson the money was moved to the General Fund and Spent.

5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.
Under Democrats Clinton & Gore Up to 85% of your Social Security can be Taxed.

Social Security Cards up until the 1980s expressly stated the number and card were not to be used for identification purposes.   Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the message, NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed.

Actually, Democrat President Kennedy and Sergeant Shriver were the first ones to misuse the Social Security account.  They used Social Security funds to start the Peace Corps.   Not the first or last time our money has been taken from American citizens and given to foreign governments.

Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we were taxed and paid to the Federal government to 'put away' -- you may be interested in the following:

Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent 'Trust Fund' and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate.

Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?
A: The Democrat Party.

Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?
A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the 'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the US

Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?
A:  Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party.   Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments!   The Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!

Q: Which Political P arty expanded the scope of the Social Security retirement program to include 'disablities'

A:Who fkn cares... Point is that should be an entirely different program... distinct from 'retirement'  program

Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!  Old Soviet / Saul Alinsky trick - accuse the other side of what you are perpetrating...

As I shouted 4 years ago folks, the cheat is on.  The easiest states are those like PA where you can mail in as many votes as you need to win ... postmarked even after election day.

All the media has to do is repeat over and over again is how close it is...

just sayin'

The only thing Karmela has made her positions clear on and really stood up for this whole dam campaign is abortion ‘rights’.   A lot of ‘liberal’ women don’t understand how men can have ANY say in the matter.   “It’s my body” etc etc.  Well, men start to get a say when the interests of the unborn male or female person are completely fkn disregarded - that’s when.  I don’t quite know what it’s like to go through utero process in an unloved, or maybe worse, an ambivalent ‘field’, but speaking as a human, adoption seems to be preferable to a saline abortion or a knitting needles abortion or a drug that starves the fetus to death abortion or a plain old standard black clinical abortion.  Karmela has definitely not made friends with unborn babies... Tim Tampon Walz also hasn’t made friends with unborn babies.  Instead he literally said “I’ve made friends with school shooters”.  Folks on some levels it’s ok to be a school shooter if it’s ok to be an abortion doctor... both performing the same task... both ending lives.  Absurd?  Yes.  But no more absurd than the devaluation of life shit ‘social engineering’ is attempting to normalize... just sayin’

Nothing wrong with being a ‘progressive’. Nothing wrong with being a ‘conservative’. 

Very generally, ‘conservatives’ have preponderance of the here and now neurotransmitters, prefer empirical references, the rule of law, and value individual agency (It has been said that conservatives love humans and progressives love humanity) .

Very generally, ‘progressives’ are dopaginaric - driven by passion for a better possible future, prefer references to others  (Example Karmela won’t answer questions with facts.  She cites the opinion of 18 ‘experts’), have a penchant for rule by man/mobs not by law , and value ‘societal' agency. 

However, excesses of either tendency indicates mental illness, collective malaise, and has consequences.  When either camp is systematically captured by control seekers and/or, situationally by mobs, the whole is lessened. A key sign that is occurring is when one side no longer allows disagreement.  Progressives have  currently gone crazy in those excesses and are no longer allowing anything but unithought... examples -

You can still be a vocal pro choice republican.  Try being a vocal pro life democrat. For snicks just try it.  You’ll get cancelled. 

Bust a myth about blacks in America, true up the real  history of Republicans ending slavery and what has happened since, how the democrats are the party of the KKK, how Obama did not a fkn thang for blacks in general, be a black republican, etc.    You will get canceled in a heartbeat.

Step up and question the social agendas of federally subsidized schools at a board meeting... get treated like shit and also get an immediate case number with the FBI ...

Question the requirements to watch and lickkiss the 'rainbows' and also make sure your kids show up for it, not to mention fund transitions out of your pocket and see what you get ‘labeled’

Question mainstream media bias - even just to mention that biased, agenda driven narrative is different from truth in reporting - and see what happens to your voice...

Excesses have consequences... imbalances have consequences... just sayin’

Dear B4 #42,

I heard you can't get out of bed and decided you were going celibate and shaved your head and “reconsidered” having children.  If it took Trump getting elected to get you to stop fkn every Dum, Harry, and Dick you meet, we’ll take it.  thx

Sincerely just sayin’

    • Date: 22nd November 2024.   BTC flirts with $100K, Stocks higher, Eurozone PMI signals recession risk.   Asia & European Sessions:   Geopolitical risks are back in the spotlight on fears of escalation in the Ukraine-Russia after Russia reportedly used a new ICBM to retaliate against Ukraine’s use of US and UK made missiles to attack inside Russia. The markets continue to assess the election results as President-elect Trump fills in his cabinet choices, with the key Treasury Secretary spot still open. The Fed’s rate path continues to be debated with a -25 bp December cut seen as 50-50. Earnings season is coming to an end after mixed reports, though AI remains a major driver. Profit taking and rebalancing into year-end are adding to gyrations too. Wall Street rallied, led by the Dow’s 1.06% broadbased pop. The S&P500 advanced 0.53% and the NASDAQ inched up 0.03%. Asian stocks rose after  Nvidia’s rally. Nikkei added 1% to 38,415.32 after the Tokyo inflation data slowed to 2.3% in October from 2.5% in the prior month, reaching its lowest level since January. The rally was also supported by chip-related stocks tracked Nvidia. Overnight-indexed swaps indicate that it’s certain the Reserve Bank of New Zealand will cut its policy rate by 50 basis points on Nov. 27, with a 22% chance of a 75 basis points reduction. European stocks futures climbed even though German Q3 GDP growth revised down to 0.1% q/q from the 0.2% q/q reported initially. Cryptocurrency market has gained approximately $1 trillion since Trump’s victory in the Nov. 5 election. Recent announcement for the SEC boosted cryptos. Chair Gary Gensler will step down on January 20, the day Trump is set to be inaugurated. Gensler has pushed for more protections for crypto investors. MicroStrategy Inc.’s plans to accelerate purchases of the token, and the debut of options on US Bitcoin ETFs also support this rally. Trump’s transition team has begun discussions on the possibility of creating a new White House position focused on digital asset policy.     Financial Markets Performance: The US Dollar recovered overnight and closed at 107.00. Bitcoin currently at 99,300,  flirting with a run toward the 100,000 level. The EURUSD drifts below 1.05, the GBPUSD dips to June’s bottom at 1.2570, while USDJPY rebounded to 154.94. The AUDNZD spiked to 2-year highs amid speculation the RBNZ will cut the official cash rate by more than 50 bps next week. Oil surged 2.12% to $70.46. Gold spiked to 2,697 after escalation alerts between Russia and Ukraine. Heightened geopolitical tensions drove investors toward safe-haven assets. Gold has surged by 30% this year. Haven demand balanced out the pressure from a strong USD following mixed US labor data. Silver rose 0.9% to 31.38, while palladium increased by 0.9% to 1,040.85 per ounce. Platinum remained unchanged. Always trade with strict risk management.
