Stupid
Or Evil? You Make The Call*
September 1, 2026
I can't believe
this. Shit is so fucked up that when we were Beefing about Social Security a little while back on the last episode of The
Beefing, I forgot my biggest pet peeve when it comes to the so-called shortfall
for the social safety net for our nation’s seniors (one of which I happen to
be). Tax the fucking rich like everyone else.** It’s not enough just to tax
their income at a rate more like that of real people who work for a living. In
one of the more insane, pathetic, and borderline criminal statutes, earnings
over $184,500 are not taxed for Social Security. WTFF.
Let’s be real: 1)
The party of Reagan, the Bushes, and Donald Jeffrey Epstein Trump have been
trying to kill one of the most successful, critical and humane social programs
in this nation’s history since its inception, and 2) these protectors of the
wealthy (and pedophiles) despise anyone who is not among the richest one
percent of Americans (or a pedophile). As if all that was not bad enough, now
unless Congress acts – which can only happen if the
Fascist/Trump/Epstein/Sedition Party is exiled to Elba, or Alcatraz or the
Gates of Hell after hopefully being trounced in the 2026 midterms, the 2028
presidential, et al election and the foreseeable future – millions of Americans
who depend on Social Security could see their benefits cut by as much as 24
percent in 2032, averaging a loss of nearly $500 a month.
How do people
actually vote for these assholes?

*Probably both.
**Actually, a higher rate would be more appropriate since they’ve been getting
away with this sanctioned thievery for so long. Also, they have any number of
loopholes which allow them to hoard gobs of money they didn’t even have to work
for; much of which accrues thanks to the labor of the little people. Enough already.
