I cannot tell you how many hours I burned playing Galactic Conquest with friends.

WATCH THOSE WRIST ROCKETS!!!

What happens to all the people that lose their jobs due to this regulation. Are they better off?

Social Security is one of the greatest scams of all time.

Generally speaking, this is how it works

Lower Income families pay into it longer (didn’t go to college, have to get a job and start getting taxed at 18 vs. going to college and started to be taxed at say 22)

Lower Income families receive benefits for less time (pretty much all statistics show that the wealthier you are, the longer you live)

Lower income families pay a higher percentage of their income than wealthier families. (Social Security only on the first ~$130K in income. It’s a regressive tax)

Lower income families are paid out less in benefits. You get paid out based on what you pay in.

Wealthier families typically have other passive forms of income that are not subject to the Social Security tax, this means that if they get to keep this income stream going into retirement they are at a massive advantage over lower income families who if they have to work a job in retirement that again have to pay Social Security taxes on wages they earn.

In addition to all of this, upon death of both the primary and spouse, all the money taken vanishes and cannot be passed down to their children or beneficiaries which only compounds wealth inequality.

In short, Social Security is a regressive tax that unfairly penalizes the poor and provides a higher welfare pay out to families that are wealthier.

This is why police need to be required by law to have occupational insurance.

That way even if they are found to be not guilty through qualified immunity or whatever BS, no insurance company would insure them, which means they couldn’t work as a cop anywhere.

Intelligence is not the same as Wisdom. People often conflate the two and “AI” as it exists today is equivalent to a 3 year olds level of wisdom and a 40 year olds level of intelligence. It has access to vast amounts of facts and data but is completely unable to actually “understand” context and meaning.

We exist!

The factory must grow.

That is a weird takeaway from this.

Government: We believe that you need to pay your workers more because we feel like it’s not enough.

Companies: The workers agreed to the pay when they signed on. If you make us pay them more, we cannot afford to pay the workers without raising our rates to levels that people don’t want to pay for.

Government: You will pay them more money.

Companies: We can’t afford to do that so we will be pulling out of this area and now they will make exactly $0 and now people have fewer transportation options.

Government: We did it, we successfully raised people’s earnings to $0! pats self on back for a job well done
