in the mean time, I hit full retirement age in 2037, which just happens to be the year, that Social Security can no longer afford to pay me the compensation they have been promising me for the last 35 years.

It feels just great knowing how much we are spending everywhere else.

The DOJ just dropped the charges against Eric Adams that Biden's DOJ charged him with immediately after criticizing PedoJoe's immigration policies.

They just fired 4 FEMA employees from Biden's administration for paying 59 million to hotels and for food and stuff just last week violating Trump's EO. How wasteful.

You're right, we are. We've been trying to fix you guys for too long without success.

I was supposed to hit full retirement age in 2035 but they pushed it back a couple of years hoping some us would die before then.

Liberals have never fixed anything. Just make it worse.

Quote from: neurosis on February 11, 2025, 07:30 AMYou guys only seem not to care when it's coming from one direction.

We have all stated here many times that BOTH parties are equally culpable when it comes to allowing the level of corruption that is now coming to light.

But by all means, let's keep trying to kill the messenger, because that's productive.

Asking for transparency and the ability to request information isn't killing the messenger.

Damn.. that's a lot of crazy reactions on one page.

All of a sudden TDS sufferers care about transparency, when they spent the last 4 years making sure they were looking at a brick wall with blinders on.

You gotta admit that does sound a little crazy.

Now that the Repugs are in charge we can just trust them to do right by us.

Now THAT is a good feeling.

Elon Musk is asking for transparency and the ability to request information, but it's easier to attack him rather than just take his findings at face value.

Trust? I don't trust any of them. Do you think that I trust Elon Musk? Why is this so hard to figure out? All we are doing is getting information. A jury in the court room doesn't have to trust a defense attornery, or the prosecutor for that matter. All they can do is let all of the information come out and make a decision. The investigator for a defense attorney, might be a real slimeball, but if he can get information that we would not have had otherwise, then so be it. If the prosecutor can make a case to prove that info is incorrect, then OK.

The only thing that I know for sure is that one side has been trying to keep us from having all of the information. And now that the information is coming out, they are telling us, we can't trust the people who are putting out that information. maybe so. Tell us why that information is incorrect. Who ever makes the best case wins the trial as far as I'm concerned.
