Bill Maher and the Left constantly call Social Security an 'entitlement' and a Socialist program - That assertion is simply NOT TRUE! I paid roughly 6.5% of my gross earnings for almost 50 years into the Government's forced retirement savings program, also known as Social Security. But wait, I'm not the only one that paid into MY Social Security account. My employers ALSO paid another 6.5% of my wages and earnings into Social Security. A total of 13%. That's (again ball-parking) 1/7 of all of my gross earnings over 50 years. What happened to that money AND the compounded interest that the government makes using MY money?? When the Government graciously allow me to use MY MONEY at retirement in the form of Social Security payments, they dare call it an entitlement???

Then we get into the taxpayer money that is 'abandoned' in Social Security accounts if the person dies before collecting a dime. There are some mechanisms that will use those funds - surviving spouse (the spouse gets to draw the larger of the two retirements, and the lesser one is 'abandoned' to the Government.) Minor children will also get a small payment until they turn 18. My single-mother younger sister died at age 56, her children having already reached age 18. Who gets her Social Security? The Government! What a great Ponzi scheme the Government is running!!!

Preview of tonight's State Of The Union address

Dan Bongino will be subject to NDAs and National Security 'classification' restrictions regarding what he is allowed to disclose publicly from his tenure as Deputy Director of the FBI. That much is standard protocol for that level of Federal employment.
As a podcaster, It is one thing to sit on the sidelines and throw out accusations, but another to back those accusations with verifiable FACTS.
The corrupt Biden administrations has had YEARS to destroy any evidence trails by the pre-eminent forensic investigative agency in the country/world (meaning the FBI). If the Biden FBI hierarchy wanted to bury evidence of ANY wrong-doing, they had the resources to do so! They had already killed investigations into hiLIARy's many misdeeds, and the Biden-family corruption... Dan Bongino was faced with insurmountable odds.

So fast-food restaurants are bringing out $2.50 burgers for the US's 250th anniversary.... BFD
Oh, I have the pics of McDonalds and Burger King menu prices from 1976 - 50 years ago.... We took pics every year for my highschool yearbook just so we could reminisce .
A shake was 35 cents!!! Regular burgers were 28 cents, cheeseburgers were 35, regular fries were 28 cents.
In 1976-1979, I used to get three regular burgers, regular fry, shake AND a apple pie for less than $2.00!!!!

1979-1980, I was getting a large pizza (and not at Dominos or Little Ceasars) with 4-items for $5.50!!! Today that pizza is almost $30!!!

I used to live on that sh!t!!!

Spreely needs to somehow get rid of the 'new member BOTs' that seem to be taking over! I'm about DONE with the "I made $xxxx/mo last month doing..." BS messages on EVERY stinking post!
