Was Charlie Kirk popular in Poland? [601]
@PolAmKrakow,
Indeed I'm saying precisely that, sir! AI is surely not definitive,
however, it can yield some interesting results, can't it.
To be clear, Charlie Kirk's memory is continuing to influence a vastly misguided,
desperate youth, an infantile mentality which refuses to realize that what's "fair" for
only one social group is often grossly unfair to the rest, e.g. privatizing and eventually getting rid of
Social Security!
If all Americans were automatically independently wealthy and financially self-reliant, then gov't. payments
to millions of retirees would certainly be both superfluous as well as downright wasteful, agreed. While not
unconstitutional, it might conceivably be seen as an unnecessary encumbrance foisted upon the legitimately
gainfully employed population.
Yet, so long as the majority of US employers see fit to randomly exclude, i.e. to semi-retire active, not to mention
fiercely contributive members of the older workforce, Social Security remains a needed lifeline for various senior
workers to allow them to live out the rest of the lives in peace, happiness, and professional contentment.
During the Great Depression, roughly from 1933-1941, the disadvantaged frequently did things which their fathers
would have deemed unthinkable, yea criminal. But in order to survive, at that time without Social Security or gov't help,
even good people were forced by circumstances to do bad things. Don't forget, the New Deal didn't kick in until nearly the
end of the War.
To those who say, "We are where we are by choice", remind them that no normal sentient, non-felon being chooses to miserable,
poverty stricken or without. Plenty of folks receive some sort of helping hand, only probably none of them will admit it.
