Jokes on her, I’m never going to be able to retire in our current system anyway!
Check mate 😏
My retirement plan is to keep working until my mind is so far gone that I can’t work any more and can no longer perceive my abject poverty. I will then eat kibble because I won’t know the difference. This plan is flawless.
I joke but at the same time I’m not so certain the reality will be all that different.
George Carlin predicted this years ago.
Awh shit shes using misty step
She’s not that high level. This is blur at best.
So her plan is basically: keep Social Security as it is for anyone who has it right now (i.e. people who might vote for her and who would get mad if she cut benefits) and work to minimize anyone else getting onto Social Security by increasing the age over and over.
I already figured I’d be working until I was 80. I guess I’ll just work until I’m 90. Maybe I’ll be lucky and get one or two good retirement years in.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
But Wall Street isn’t completely resigned to Trump’s inevitability; there has been a late surge in big-money support for Nikki Haley, the former governor of South Carolina.
And there is, to be fair, still a chance that Trump — who is facing many criminal charges and whose public rants have become utterly unhinged — will manage to crash and burn before securing the nomination.
“Flip-flopping” doesn’t really convey the sheer cynicism with which she has shifted her rhetoric and changed her positions on everything from abortion rights to immigration to whether it’s OK to try overturning a national election.
In particular, she seems exceptionally explicit, even among would-be Republican nominees, in calling for an increase in the age at which Americans become eligible for Social Security — a bad idea that seems to be experiencing a revival.
The first thing you should know about Social Security is that the actual numbers don’t justify the apocalyptic rhetoric one often hears, not just from the right but from self-proclaimed centrists who want to sound serious.
So anyone invoking rising life expectancy as a reason to delay Social Security benefits is, in effect, saying that aging janitors must keep working (or be cast into extreme poverty) because bankers are living longer.
The original article contains 904 words, the summary contains 208 words. Saved 77%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
That could change into “Nikki Haley Is Coming to Federal Prison”
What retirement?
