Today March 14, 2014, if nothing changes, this is what social security will provide if you start contributing when you are 20 years old, work 45 years at $100,000.00 per year. The total contribution to your social security account that you and your employer contribute is 15% over 45 years. That is $15,000 (approx.) per year times the 45 years. The result is $675,000.00. The maximum you can collect if you contribute the maximum amount possible for the 45 years is $2,400 per month (approx.) which is $28,800.00 per year. If you are fortunate enough to live 20 years after you retire you will recoup benefits for 20 years times $28,800 per year. A total of 576,000.00. The government keeps almost $100,000.00 of your money. Great deal, isn’t it? Great investors, aren’t they? Bernie Madoff was a piker.

In the Manufacturer's Design Specifications (Human Beings) find the paragraph on the "HAYWIRE" switch. My manual is so old the writing is obscured but it seems to say, "no off setting".

Please bear with me as I venture for only a moment in my vision of Donald J Trump's vision (my assumption) of America. I believe I can convey the essence by being direct to the point in an abstractly constructed question. The question, if I am correct, clears away intellectual diversions. What is the potential productive capability and achievable capacity of all American citizens who want to work with their vision untethered? If it is of similar drive and self-motivation as his own, the debt (and deficit) can become things of the past sooner than later. That last statement is my opinion. Enjoy it if you like. Shrug it off if you don't like. Free will in a free society provides the opportunities to do what you want and think what you want. As long as you do not hurt someone doing that freedom stuff.

There is always the possibility that the Big Beautiful Bill that requires a lot of promises fulfilled by those voting on the Bill which results in the elevation of its moniker to "fat pickings" shall confront a timely resurrection of DOGE which reduces the Bill to "slim pickings". A hope, for the current momentarily (yes, a dynamic moment) final implementation. I say prayers.
