Just take the $6 from some of the fraud waste and abuse. Hell, take $12.
If you had to pay an extra $6 out of every paycheck, but it meant every kid in public school got free breakfast and lunch, no matter how much their parents make, would you do it?

Over the past 10 days, I became the digital Nick Shirley. Using public & private records my AI agent swarm found ~$787 million in government billing that made absolutely no sense. Thread 🧵

Can’t help but notice what a dead simple 16 team playoff would be, or 24 with the non-power conference champs playing the power conference runner ups
This would fix college football

MorePerfectUnion “If you spend more than $80,000 renovating an apartment you are trying to turn it from affordable to luxury.” NYS Lawmakers “Renovations cost $30,000. Anything more than that is greed.” And then… Public housing. “We need at least $489,000 per unit to renovate.” City of New York. “We are giving a public housing development $529,000 per unit to renovate it.” I mean COME ON!

“Why would I plant a tree if I’m not going to be around to sit in it’s shade?”
“I’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. “Why would I pay property tax?” Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century. politico.com/news/magazine/2…

You need a certain score in international trivia before you’re allowed to care about the decline of civilization apparently…

just some napkin math, That’s 26 Billion a year, less than 2 tenths of a percent of the US Federal budget.
"Why can't we have 2 armed guards at every school?" There are 100,000 public schools in the U.S. and armed security costs ~$60 an hour. That's $72,000,000 a day. A DAY. We won't buy pencils for schools and you think we're gonna hire guards?!

We know EXACTLY what you paid in because there's an annual maximum individual contribution - this is public record You're taking out way more than that The government you elected pissed away the fund, and you want to tax your children and grandchildren to make up the difference
Replying to @agarthanarmory
You have no clue what I’ve paid in. I’m not leeching off anyone.

I was told in the 90s in high school in Indiana that Social Security would not be a thing when I retired. My husband was told the same in New York. By Boomers. So guess what we did? We did our best to plan our retirement excluding SS. For the past 30 years. We developed other retirement plans. We found other streams. It’s not perfect and it’s not fail-proof but it should keep us alive, pretty comfortable, and not a burden on our kids, even if we need full time care. Apparently, the Boomers did not take their own advice. That is no one’s fault but their own. And I don’t think many Xers and Millennials will be considering their lack of planning as our current emergency come voting day. Y’all had DECADES of power to fix it. I don’t wanna hear the crying now.

I mean, I guess that’s true? They gave up fewer points to Notre Dame than UCLA…
At pre-Illinois press conference, #Purdue defensive coordinator Kevin Kane said defense played "differently and better" from UCLA performance to Notre Dame. Said mental errors were cut in half. "Guys continue to jell and buy into what we're doing."
