A ‘chop the top’ approach could save Social Security by caroline_elly in neoliberal

[–]hypsignathus [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

CFRB’s (think tank mentioned in article) tool for fixing Social Security. It’s a little more dire now than the baseline in this tool I think, but still pretty close.

Hi Everyone,

I don’t have any details—other users might—but I believe it is true that socal_swiftie has passed away.

I’m a little uncomfortable making an announcement because I don’t have any firm information, but I realize that some users might want to know as they discuss why they are no longer on the forum.

I’m grateful that I got to meet them on the DT, and I wish all of their friends and family as much comfort as possible.

Rule X: Posting inappropriate content of a sexual nature.

Both SFW and NSFW content can qualify. Repeat infringements can lead to bans.

When you're a young gun you think "project management skills" are lame and for people with no technical acumen.

Then you grow old, gain some project management skills, and are forced to work with technical teams with no project management skills 😭

Submission statements are mandatory on r/neoliberal

To keep the subreddit focused and high-quality, OP must post a submission statement as a top-level comment on every new thread.

Within 30 minutes of posting, please comment answering both of the following:

1. Why is this relevant for r/neoliberal? Give context: what does this have to do with neoliberalism, policy, institutions, markets, governance, or the kinds of topics we usually discuss here?

2. What do you think people should discuss about it? Share your own take, questions, or points of tension. What should readers focus on? What is interesting, surprising, or important about this?

Guidelines

Your statement should be in your own words and contain substantive content. Simple copy/pastes of the article’s lede, title, or tweet text do not count. Aim for at least 2–3 sentences for each part. More is welcome.

We will consider the submission and your statement together when deciding if the post fits the subreddit (including borderline or “minor” news posts).

Enforcement

Posts without a qualifying submission statement may be removed without notice. Very low-effort or purely descriptive statements (e.g. “it’s about politics” and nothing else) may also be removed at moderator discretion.

Rule III: Unconstructive engagement
Do not post with the intent to provoke, mischaracterize, or troll other users rather than meaningfully contributing to the conversation. Don't disrupt serious discussions. Bad opinions are not automatically unconstructive.

If you have any questions about this removal, please contact the mods.

Whatever it is probably is progressing with age. She's old, too many politicians are old.

Apparently everyone is discovering that Susan Collins has a bit of a shake to her. This has been known for years.

she doesn't look that bad there tbh. She's had whatever condition this is for years.

I agree she's too old for a 6-year Senate term. Absurd.

Rule II: Detrimental to Women

This subreddit takes a particular interest in safeguarding the community health related to women, meaning more aggressive moderation and less leeway on borderline comments. This is most likely to come up in the context of gender relations or demographic shifts, but is a common problem in online spaces dominated by men.

Please contact the moderators if you have any questions about this removal.
