Senator Bernie Sanders Report Warns Nearly Half of Older Americans 'Have No Retirement Savings'
  • I'm in my 50s with no savings. It isn't lifestyle or marketing driven though. I just have had very few years where we had any extra. Also three teenagers and the price of food is killing me, cost of cars too. It's just surviving that's gutting me.

  • Joe Biden pledges $1.7 billion to end hunger across U.S.
  • $10 billion funded school lunches for a year during COVID and we should have kept it going. School kitchens are back to having to try to collect "lunch debt" again. So how is less than a fifth of that going to end hunger? This is just election posturing and empty promises. Look for more of these coming soon from the right.

  • I'm no fan of Trump but one of these things is voluntary. If idiots want to choose to give him their post-tax earnings then I pity them but they should be able to do that.

    The other is arguably a great benefit to society but is involuntary. We are taxed under threat of violence and have essentially no say in where the money goes. Our entire government is super broken and lawmakers very rarely make laws. Also why tf do we have to fund the world police? Our infrastructure is crumbling and our people are struggling to pay for basic needs.

  • 1.5% of the population has been killed. That's a lot but 2% of the US died in the civil war, and far higher numbers. I know the wars are very different but larger numbers have also died in the current Ukraine war.

    If they're trying to eliminate them as a people they need to pick up the pace. Also, my family was displaced from their land in the 1900s and had to seek asylum in the US. Nobody called it a genocide but also everyone was mostly white.

  • Lock those fucking chickens up!
  • Commercial eggs aren't fertilized. Most backyard chicken eggs aren't fertilized. It's mostly homestead farmer types with roosters around their hens that have fertilized eggs. And that white spot doesn't mean anything.

  • Trump says he’ll debate Biden as many times as necessary: ‘We have an obligation’
  • Yeah that's true about Bill Maher. My mistake was actually vision related though. I can barely read on my phone screen. I'm usually on a large monitor with everything oversized. But I can't always have access to it. Practicing with talk show hosts is an interesting idea.

    I still stand by my take on biased moderators though. If I watch a hostile interview on Fox I root for the person they're against. If I watch a hostile interview on MSNBC I root for the person they're against. They're all shit but in very different ways, mostly. They're all sold out to the ultrarich so they have that in common.

  • Trump says he’ll debate Biden as many times as necessary: ‘We have an obligation’
  • How about debates that are actually debates, moderated by an independent and not partisan entertainers? I'm no fan of Trump but those are all strongly Democrat supporters. If you're trying to sway independent votes, biased moderation sours the desired audience.
