Three Texas Counties Opted Out of Social Security
Merrill Mathews of the Wall Street Journal showcases three counties in Texas that opted-out of Social Security by creating personal retirement accounts for county employees. After 30 years, the county workers in these three counties:
”…retire with more money and have better death and disability supplemental benefits.”
Unlike the federal Social Security system, which has gigantic unfunded liabilities, the three counties are solvent.
“And those three counties—unlike almost all others in the United States—face no long-term unfunded pension liabilities.”
With essentially the same contributions, the county workers’ will receive roughly twice the retirement income as compared to those in the federal system.
Why?
In these three counties, the money is saved and invested. Conversely, in America’s federal system, the Social Security taxes are transferred immediately to current retirees, and when there were surpluses, politicians use the money for other government functions. Thus, America’s federal system has no money saved and because of fewer workers supporting retirees, America has enormous unfunded liabilities. The difference is saving and investment growth versus the federal government’s taxing, transferring and spending.

When you tax something you decrease its activity. The activity of corporations is to create wealth.
Also, corporations don’t pay taxes, they either pass the actual cost of the tax along or they go bankrupt.

Because a democrat vote is for:
*abolition of Constitutional rights, namely, free speech, 2A, protection from illegal searches and seizures
*energy policies that are forged from politics, money, and destroy the economy
*social policies that tell our children immorality is ok and in fact something they should embrace
*tactics that target political opposition, including a sitting and former President who they’re terrified will expose their treasonous acts
*willful disregard for investigating REAL criminal activity of its own party, see Hunter and Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Russiagate, etc.
*continued media manipulation and control that keeps a large majority of Americans from the truth
*global policies that send trillions of dollars overseas to fight wars that the majority of Americans don’t support in order to further a self-serving agenda, while schools, businesses, medicine, etc. suffer and struggle
*a party proven to lie, deceive and ignore the will of the people to increase its elite lifestyles
… should I continue?

You clearly repeat mantras as a substitute for simply looking under the hood.
Show me that you are genuinely interested in an honest conversation on the topic, and I will gladly engage you further.

Can you smell the troll fear posts before midterms? These frickers are about to get monkey rolled. We canvassing like a mofo they can’t get away with the shite they pulled in 2020 this is going to be a bloodbath. Watch the polls tighten everyday where a R is down or in the margin of error. Red fricking Armageddon

Corporate taxes are racist. They disproportionately affect some young folks trying to buy a pair of nikes.

How does a paid shill get paid? Do they just get paid for time, or do they have to submit posts or post count?

:terms are acceptable: gif
You think this would make me vote dem? If I could opt out today of SS I would. Not like it will be around when I am retirement age anyway and plus it is a ponzi scheme. Let me keep my own money and let Corporations keep their money as well.

Rush Limbaugh always said Dem will resort to their old tactics when against the wall to win votes. Telling seniors and the poor that Repubs will take away your social security, welfare, etc.
