YaHoo! 8.7%

With that big a raise in my social security, I'll be in tall cotton! It just might be enough to help fill my gas tank and get a MickeyD's happy meal on the way home. While I never liked Trump, sometimes I miss only having to worry about mean tweets. Bob

With an 8.7% raise you're now only 10% behind inflation!
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I don't know whether it's my anti social tendencies, borderline personality disorder or maybe the simple fact I'm an insufferable *hole. I thought the mean tweets were hilarious.
Lets go Brandon!
Dam, now our taxes will increase again! every time they try to help it gets worse...
"mean" tweets were funny to me! Truth hurts sometimes. Most of his tweets were TRUE. Either way, he loved(s) this country and actively tried to make it richer, better, and safer. FJB and the commies are doing their level best to DESTROY this country!
Just sayin'
So where is the money for your 8.7% raise coming from?
Maybe the SSA hit the powerball numbers? Nah, they'll just print more money.
The same place the money for a lot of gov't spending comes from - out of thin air!
Of course the dems plan of raising the minimum wage to $15 will obviously generate more FICA taxes. The problem is it will also add to inflation and we will be right back where we started so no real gains for anybody. Bob
I think that 8.7% will be well tempered by the increase in Medicare. Don't count those extra nickels just yet.
Just found out that Medicare part B is actually going down 3% next year. That'll save me a whopping $5.70 per month. Maybe, just maybe, I'll splurge and buy Judy a MickeyD's happy meal too! Well maybe not, I don't want to spoil her.😁 Bob
that MickeyD's meal may just cause you all to use that medicare insurance...........
McD's taking lay aways?
Yes! They hold your meal for up to a month until full payment is made.
Just so you know, after a month that meal will land you in the long waiting room line at your local Walk In Clinic!!
Fries will taste the same after a month
If the government wanted to make a stack of boxes higher, they would pull the bottom box out and put it on the top. Then they would train others to perform this function, while congratulating themselves and giving everyone involved bonuses and promotions.
From the 10,000,000 jobs JB says he created. I think he created "0" jobs. Just had a lot of people go back to work after the COVID lockdowns.
