Here is why we can’t go back on the “Gold Standard”
re: #1 The Vicious Babushka
Ummm, very sorry it’s just not accurate.
ssa.gov
Which political party took Social Security from the independent trust fund and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?
There has never been any change in the way the Social Security program is financed or the way that Social Security payroll taxes are used by the federal government. The Social Security Trust Fund was created in 1939 as part of the Amendments enacted in that year. From its inception, the Trust Fund has always worked the same way. The Social Security Trust Fund has never been “put into the general fund of the government.”
Most likely this question comes from a confusion between the financing of the Social Security program and the way the Social Security Trust Fund is treated in federal budget accounting. Starting in 1969 (due to action by the Johnson Administration in 1968) the transactions to the Trust Fund were included in what is known as the “unified budget.” This means that every function of the federal government is included in a single budget. This is sometimes described by saying that the Social Security Trust Funds are “on-budget.” This budget treatment of the Social Security Trust Fund continued until 1990 when the Trust Funds were again taken “off-budget.” This means only that they are shown as a separate account in the federal budget. But whether the Trust Funds are “on-budget” or “off-budget” is primarily a question of accounting practices—it has no effect on the actual operations of the Trust Fund itself.

Not watching the debate, don’t really care to, but the SSA website says the average monthly benefit is $1335/month. which adds up to 340K in about 20 years which doesn’t seem too off base.
According to the SSA’s actuarial tables, a 65-year-old man can expect to live another 17.7 years, and a 65-year-old woman for another 20.2 years.
But Jeb don’t get disabled because I had to cash in my 401 had to cash in my death benefit Ins plan, sell my house and drain my savings to live on before I could get any help like food stamps and Medicaid I had to be destitute before I got help, It took me 4 and a half years to get my disability approved, and that was with a Family Dr, a Cardiologist, a Pulmonologist and a Heart Surgeon all saying I needed it.
I have a proven record of fucking with brain dead patients and their families.

What’s the average life span? Lifespan by job type (blue collar vs white collar)? How many retire early at less than earned amount? I’m just not buying a stat like that that’s completely unqualified.

I don’t know about you guys but it rubs me the wrong way seeing elected officials, all who have pretty pensions talking about cutting yours and mine. I think that may be what angered me the most about Walker, Christie, and the others who declared war on their states public sector unions. I had a great uncle- lifer at Bethelem Steel. It happened after he died but the corporate bastards took away the pension that had been fought for by the employees. I am no firebreather but I have no love at all for politicians and businessmen who make a ton already screwing over the less well off.

Huckabee: “I do not want to walk my five grand-kids through the charred remains of a once-great country called America.”
stolen from the peroration of webster’s second reply to hayne:
When my eyes shall be turned to behold for the last time the sun in heaven, may I not see him shing on the broken and dishonored fragments of a once glorious Union; on States dissevered, discordant, belligerent; on a land rent with civil feuds, or drenched, it may be, in fraternal blood! Let their last feeble and lingering glance rather behold the gorgeous ensign of the republic, now known and honored throughout the earth, still full high advanced, its arms and trophies streaming in their original lustre, not a stripe erased or polluteddd, not a single star obscured, bearing for its motto, no such miserable interrogatory as “What is all this worth?” nor those other words of delusion and folly, “Liberty first and Union afterwards”; but everywhere, spread all over in characters of living light, plazing on all it sample folds, as they float over the sea and over the land, and in every wind under the whole heavens, that other sentiment, dear to every true American heart, - Liberty and Union, now and for ever, one and inseperable!

Yeah, I’m slowly going mad from the realization that I still have two weeks til Fallout 4 comes out. Which is sad, because when it was announced, I was unemployed, had no money for either a new console or PC, and could only hope that I’d find some way to get one or both at Christmastime.

re: #149 Amory Blaine
Correct. One of my brothers died in 2011 at the age of 61. He never collected a cent of Social Security. Another died last year at the age of 62. He collected 6 months of Social Security payments. My oldest brother died on Monday of this week at age 67. He collected less than $200 per month in Social Security payments since reaching the age of 65.

We’ve got an aging XBox 360 and we’ve been putting off buying an XBox One for a while. Now with all these games coming out and us possibly switching to Google Fiber in the near future, the time is right to buy a new console.

Less than a week after the killings in Charleston, S.C., Amazon, Walmart and eBay banned the sale of items bearing the symbol, also known as the “Southern Cross.” Conservative Southern politicians who had never said a critical word about the flag, along with many who had defended it as a legitimate and non-racist symbol of Southern heritage, came out against it. Writers like Charles Johnson of the Little Green Footballs blog penned thoughtful essays about why it should finally come down. On July 5, Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley ordered a variety of Confederate flags removed from the statehouse grounds. And on July 8, encouraged by conservative Gov. Nikki Haley, the South Carolina legislature passed a law that mandated the removal of the battle flag. […]
