    Seems the most damage is in the SouthEast sector.

    Ya know, I was gonna apply for SS next year - when
    I'd decidedly be 'of age +" for a good check. BUT,
    now CAN I ??? Can't do it well online ... need to
    talk with actual humans ........

    I'm not gonna starve - get a good pension and dividends
    and such - but since I spent so much PAYING into SS for
    45+ years I feel I should be guarenteed a RETURN on that
    fuckin' huge investment. Fair is fair, honest deals are
    honest deals. SS was framed like an insurance policy - pay
    IN, eventually get pay OUT. If asshole pols have 'borrowed'
    from The Fund - TAKE THE MONEY BACK and put it to the
    promised ends for Citizen Joe.

    Or do they want to make SS like, well, UnitedHealth -
    pay in, get NOTHING but excuses when you need it ???

    AARP still wants me to buy a United "health plan".
    I've written them ... nothing changes. No POINT in
    such plans, as so horribly revealed of late.

    Look ... overall, MAGA is a good idea ... but, at
    least at the moment, the DAMAGE it's doing to
    long-established institutions - esp $$$ - is
    kinda worrisome. "Efficiency" and "theft" are
    different things. A "greater" America PAYS
    ITS DEBTS, watches after its people.



    Trump doesn't care about paying
    debts - esp his own - and he could
    care less about suffering Americans.

    Lowering prices, drill baby drill,
    mass deportations - all lies, Trump
    has walked away from all of it.


    So...what did Biden do to fix Social Security in the four years he
    had?
