    A little golf (and yeah, using a cart and cheating) might be the best possible thing for him - and the world.

    "Living" longer doesn't always mean "is able to work" longer.

    A Boomer worked, paid into the system, and gets the money back upon retirement.

    The REAL parasites were the first SS recipients, whose first check just about equaled the entire sum they ever paid into the system.

    Meet Ida Fuller, who paid a whopping $24.75 into the system before retiring. Her first benefit check was $22.54.

    She lived to be 100 and collected $22,888.92 in Social Security payments.

    I wish I could collect 935 times the amount I paid in.

    Tax the billionaires to the fucking moon.

    They're called "entitlements" because we're fucking entitled to them.

    And anybody who tries to take them away may find out all about the immortal "second amendment solutions."

    Schultz seems more like an Ayn Rand GOP stooge.

    The President will absolutely underestimate her because she’s biracial and a woman.

    Is that on a Volkswagen? If so, then it's appropriate.

    Make America Great Again, eh? Make America Tax The Ultra-Wealthy Again.

    The top marginal tax rate:
    1945: 94% (Roosevelt)
    1957: 91% (Eisenhower)
    1964: 77% (Johnson)
    1973: 70% (Nixon)
    1986: 50% (Reagan)
    2018: 37% (Trump)

    It is, and it's not.

    Not in today's world of "very fine people."

    It's less appropriate than when I was in the newspaper business and the local Mitsubishi dealership had a full page ad to commemorate Pearl Harbor.
