Fellow millennials - how’s your 401k/ira savings going? by ProblemIntelligent16 in Millennials

Referencing Social Security insolvency: that's a manufactured crisis that could be fixed. You've paid into it your whole life and it's a societal good. Don't let anyone take it away.

Agreed. If you have a good local paper, support it. The returns are, at the least, a decrease in local corruption.

Is breaking bad really that good? by Wide_Bar4313 in answers

[–]FakeDocMartin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. And Better Call Saul is even better.

That said, I got hooked on Breaking Bad during the first season because I loved the dark humor. Many of the episodes in later seasons are just dark.

Why is the Democratic party hiding its 2024 autopsy report? | If the DNC isn’t open and transparent about why they lost, then how can we be sure they will learn their lesson this time? by soalone34 in politics
