So more social security, so to speak.
you got Charlemagne tha Rap God and Kavanaugh tha Rape God
@pratel can verify
When social security actually drops, there's going to be a massive economic shock that we may not recover from.
It was brought up during the presidential debates.
Brett is pretty clearly innocent.
And I was surprised.
@oprahsminge No, Kavanaugh is a closet satanist who summons demons. Not a "rape god."
Because we almost never fucking talk about this.
Rape satan?
It's a giant shadow in our future.
The only hope (and it isn't much of one) is a freeze on entitlement spending and an economic boom that lasts 10+ years.
So there are two massive organized lobbies in American politics.
I believe military pension is necessary
The largest is the AARP.
The 2nd is the NRA.
Imagine if your caravan crosses into a desert and there's a giant shadow hanging over the rest of your path.
And no one is bringing up what the fuck that thing is.
A ton of ex service tend to not get jobs
@Abel I'd agree with the idea of pensions being somewhat necessary
but tbh some of the payouts are fucking crazy
Boomers will admit it's a ponzi scheme.
The military is heavily, and possibly over-compensated, to be honest.
You're looking at serving maybe a decade and collecting 30k for the next 40-50 years.
But it's their turn because they paid into it. And they'll be damned if they're left holding the bag.
and in the same breath they'll say "don't cut it because I paid into it! It's my money!"
"But.. That's what happens to us after you."
i dunno iif im gonna go as far as you @pratel
That adds up when you track how many people serve and then get pretty high paying jobs afterwards.
Well, here my dad gets a reduction in petrol prizes, free healthcare, and even scholarships for his family
And he only served for three deacades
For military?
Yep, Air force
3 decades makes sense for a nice pension.
yeah it makes sense
That's basically a career.
Basically
He joined when he was 17 lol
It's the guys who never get past the low levels but collect pensions for a lifetime that make you scratch your head.
And alot of those guys leave at 30 and take 6 figure jobs in private industry.
