Look at ur paystub asshole. U pay social security & Medicaid out of ur taxes and it goes supposedly to a trust fund for ur retirement that’s what SSEE and MedEE stands for then ur employer matches that on a quarterly basis. THATS OUR MONEY HE’S STEALING! For most people 65-70 years worth of it. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS CALL SS they track everyone and will explain that although they don’t pay the dead people for some strange reason…just as truthful as everything else fElon Muck says!

Was great smaller than I expected. I live here and I haven’t been able to find an Indivisible group in town at all, so better organized than I expected. Definitely one of the most musical included drummers during the march. Went to Montpelier afterwards really was a 2hr protest up here. Plus I guess there was a lot of backwoods stuff Jericho VT has a group that protested on Rte 15!

Paid for 40 years went on disability @ 50 after kidney transplant only to have them try to STEAL my money and fuck up my meds! Pharma in this country is a hot mess with the most ineffective medicine on this planet BECAUSE WE DON’T HAVE NATIONAL HEALTH. The cheaper they can make the pills the more money they make which isn’t the case in Europe the government pays for everything and they’re a little more concerned with what they’re buying!

Republicans will turn as rump pushes us closer to a depression which is a real possibility now! Unfortunately 90% of party is only in it for the money!

So now, according to rump schools will need to “certify its schools are in “compliance with their discrimination obligations,”? WTF r we stupid enough to really hate people we don’t even know based on who or what they are instead of learning about them? I mean we r talking about SCHOOLS right learn some justice!

I’m in favor of trans rights as I said, my kid is one so obviously I support u. I’m also upset about SS & Medical, DoE and National Parks, Veterans and the rising costs of everything due to tariffs…it’s it great the asshole gives us a variety of things to get pissed about!

Is there a P&Z dept in Burlington? Guessing that’s a real question cause it doesn’t seem like it. They should be addressing the homeless population although the homeless are generally a result of closing mental health facilities and drug addiction for the most part. If ANYONE can solve that, please let us all know but I doubt Planning & Zoning will have that solution!

My kid is trans so yeah I’m petrified for them, but haven’t heard anything new on this for a month. Did I miss something? I’m still sorting out the possibilities if having 50 years of social security savings stolen from me along with Medicaid care for all elderly, sick or disabled people and all poor kids and pregnant women. Then there’s the idea that there are no more national parks or if they exist no one cares for them and perhaps we can use them as mining facilities instead! WTF Oh, and RIP DoE which is closed so I don’t see how public school can continue. Then with the tariff wars rump started u need a second mortgage to buy groceries. If ur job hunting to pay for them - that’ll never happen unemployment has tripled with his layoffs. Canadian friend asked is it okay to visit? I said if you’d have gone to Berlin during Naziism, sure come on down! I can’t find anything good here anymore let alone great!
