Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Axios: White House Futiley Pursuing a Strategy of Just Not Letting Biden Trip and Fall DownAh, the "mainstream" media, reporting things everyone already knows, two and a half years late. When are you going to break the big story about the Basement Strategy of 2020, Axios? 2044? Their changed headline called this the White House's "secret" strategy. Secret from whom, Axios?President Biden and his campaign are working on a critical project for his re-election bid: Make sure he doesn't trip. Driving the news: As voters express deep concerns about the 80-year-old president's age and fitness for office, Biden's team is taking extra steps to prevent him from stumbling in public -- as he did in June, when he tripped over a sandbag at the Air Force Academy. With a physical therapist, Biden has been doing exercises to improve his balance as far back as November 2021. Since his stumble in June, he has been wearing tennis shoes more often to avoid slipping -- and using the short stairs on Air Force One, entering the plane on a lower deck than before. Why it matters: Democrats, including some in the administration, are terrified that Biden will have a bad fall -- with a nightmare scenario of it happening in the weeks before the November 2024 election. Zoom in: Some senior Democrats privately have been frustrated with Biden's advance team for months, citing the sandbag incident and noting that the president often appears not to know which direction to go after he speaks at a podium. Often without context, Republicans have used video clips of Biden looking confused about where to go after speeches to raise further questions about his age.What "context" do you claim is necessary there, Axios? As mentioned earlier, the White House's "secret sneaker strategy" has already failed once today alone:

Whoopi claims Biden is "doing more than showing up to work and functioning."
"Joe Biden can fall down 55 times, that's not going to make me think he can't do the job," she boasts. She also claims Social Security is fine and is not and has never been in danger of going bankrupt. ======== Social Security isn't the real problem. It's on a bad trajectory that no one is going to fix, but it's small beans in terms of the federal government's downward financial spiral. It's Medicare and Medicaid.

I can see it now... Biden falls a few days before the election and becomes fully vegetable-ized. Trump's lead in the polls becomes double digits...

It's Medicare and Medicaid. But try running on cutting those programs and get into elected office. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, searching for more with John Huston at September 26, 2023 04:29 PM (LvTSG) Medicare and Medicaid are the more immediate concerns, absolutely. That said -- social security is a real problem. It's a pyramid scheme that requires exponential growth of the work force to pay current benefits for current retirees. The entire "trust fund" of banked up money is all t-bills. And of course, the US government doesn't have hundreds of billions in cash waiting around when SSA starts cashing in those t-bills. They'll have to sell public t-bills to finance it. Social Security will be "fine" until it isn't, and spectacularly collapses.

She also claims Social Security is fine and is not and has never been in danger of going bankrupt. ++++ It should make you think he can't do the job. Elderly people are usually frail. They don't bounce back. Falls are *bad* and can trigger rapid decline. If he falls a lot - even in a parallel universe where he's mentally competent - then that is high-risk and needs to be dealt with. Walkers and wheelchairs exist for a reason, "optics" be damned. On the latter, she isn't exactly wrong. Social Security is not in crisis yet and is actually salvageable. Except that she doesn't know that - she's just vomiting out talking points - and so gets no credit. She also failed to mention - and again, probably doesn't know - that the *real* crisis is in Medicare. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at September 26, 2023 04:31 PM (t0OGg) 29

Meanwhile, in the land of delusion: Trump Short Circuits Again During Live Speech, Concerns Grow Over Mental Condition. In another display of cognitive impairment, Donald Trump appeared to confuse Jeb Bush with George Bush, suggesting either that he ran against George Bush in the primary of the 2016 election or that Jeb Bush deployed troops in the Middle East.
This isn’t the first time Trump has displayed concerning signs regarding his mental fitness. During a recent speech in Washington D.C., Trump appeared confused when he suggested he was leading former President Barack Obama in the polls. In the same video, Trump appeared to struggle while trying to remember he ran against Hillary Clinton in 2016. Text of speech at article: https://tinyurl.com/5n8yuh45 This is what unchecked anger and hatred can do to a brain. and way elevated triglycerides. the man is not healthy. "Concerns Grow"? Among whom? Everyone who is not as paralyzingly stupid as he is knows that he has the cognitive ability of a flatworm.

How do you salvage social security?
From day one, social security paid out benefits to retirees from money brought in people currently working. ... Posted by: Harry Paratestes at September 26, 2023 04:34 PM (mj0Qp) ++++ Yes, it's a Ponzi scheme, but it can be saved without bankrupting the country by changing that. First, raise the taxes for it by a bit to stave off crisis. Next, control spending. Restrict and means-test benefits for people under 40 (yeah, they get fucked - but that's true anyway and it's unavoidable). Raise the retirement age at all steps by two years for people under 45 or 50 (yeah, they get fucked). Possibly means test it for those over the age of 40 on an ongoing basis (maybe for those with more than some amount of regular retirement income from other sources). It cannot be done without pissing a lot of people off, but that has also always been true. But it could be done without bankrupting the federal government. Medicare cannot be fixed, which is why it won't be. It will either be the bomb that blows up the government or there will be other means to address that particular problem.

Medicare cannot be fixed, which is why it won't be. It will either be the bomb that blows up the government or there will be other means to address that particular problem.
In talking with LIVs one of the real issues in getting them to understand is that there is virtually an unlimited desire for "free" healthcare. So even ignoring the rampant corruption and inefficiencies in government healthcare you can't offer healthcare as "a right" because there isn't enough money in the world to pay for it. This then leads to rationing where the government decides. Yes...like the people at the DMV. And if you have to choose between "free government healthcare" where the government chooses who gets what and when or the old system where you get what you choose to pay for how the hell is the former "fair"?

Stop importing millions who instantly go on Medicaid and welfare, WIC etc. Cut the bennies for all illegals who are here.

Actually, a debate format that I would like to see is to have a 24 hour period, where each side can call out the other say, three times for an hour, with only a ten minute notice at any time day or night.

If you means test Social Security, you end it b/c then it's just welfare by another name.
If you want to "save" it, without destroying its original intent, which was to pay for the last years of one's life (b/c when it started, folks only lived to an average age of 65, so payouts weren't long for the vast majority of recipients), continue to increase the age of receipt another year every 5 years until you reach the American average age at death (or 1-2 years before it). This is political suicide, but this saves the intent of the program at creation. It's not retiree vacation fund money...it's truly you are old and in bed permanently waiting to die money... I'm not touching Medicare - that's a disaster (although it could be "saved" the same way)... Posted by: Nova Local at September 26, 2023 04:52 PM (exHjb) 159

If you want to "save" it, without destroying its original intent, which was to pay for the last years of one's life (b/c when it started, folks only lived to an average age of 65, so payouts weren't long for the vast majority of recipients), continue to increase the age of receipt another year every 5 years until you reach the American average age at death (or 1-2 years before it).
This is political suicide, but this saves the intent of the program at creation. It's not retiree vacation fund money...it's truly you are old and in bed permanently waiting to die money... It's a solid plan, except for one small caveat. Every penny saved by your plan will immediately be spent on gimmes for the parasite class.

Legally, anyway. Social Security *is* a welfare program. They pretend it isn't with the annuity-style statements, etc., but that doesn't change the underlying legal reality. Politically, yes, saving Social Security is suicide. Mechanically, it's entirely possible - including a gradually ratcheting retirement age pinned to live expectancy (which will do a lot). Medicare could not be saved the same way, because there is no limit to demand for it and no other way to provide the service.

Next, control spending. Restrict and means-test benefits for people under 40 (yeah, they get fucked - but that's true anyway and it's unavoidable). Raise the retirement age at all steps by two years for people under 45 or 50 (yeah, they get fucked). Possibly means test it for those over the age of 40 on an ongoing basis (maybe for those with more than some amount of regular retirement income from other sources).
Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at September 26, 2023 04:40 PM (t0OGg) I don't understand how that fixes anything. The fundamental problem is that it relies on payroll taxes from people currently working, to give paychecks to people who are either disabled or elderly and are no longer working. Even if you increase the payroll taxes going in, and kick out a bunch of people getting paid out, the fundamental design of the system is still unsustainable. Any "solution" like that just pisses off a lot of people and kicks the can down the road a bit. You need to maintain a stable ratio of people in the work force to retirees in order for it to be "sustainable." But that is not possible. Government cannot (directly) control birth rates and death rates. Posted by: Harry Paratestes at September 26, 2023 04:57 PM (mj0Qp) 187

The underlying problem with Medicare - besides its tax rate, which has *never* been adequate - is the costs associated with the medical system overall. Medicare was a bad program from a fiscal standpoint, but it is also the largest victim of the out-of-control (from a cost standpoint) medical system - a system that was, of course, directly enabled and partially created by government.

OT but important COVID topic...the Left previously said you were dumb not to get the vaccine, or using other drugs put you at risk. Now, they're escalating, and say using other drugs puts everyone at risk.
The Guardian: Use of antiviral may be fuelling evolution of Covid, scientists say. Molnupiravir, which is also sold under the brand name Lagevrio, is designed to mutate coronavirus to destruction, but researchers found evidence that the virus can sometimes survive the treatment, leading to mutated versions that occasionally spread to other people. If only they could slow down the transmission of the virus. Some kind of barrier? a facemask maybe? WHY DO YOU HATE FREEDOM!!!!!!!!1!! Everything I've seen confirms that the societal priority is to deny the effectiveness of masks or, really, of any preventative measure whatsoever, so that we can keep the money river flowing into billionaires' pockets regardless of the human cost.

", continue to increase the age of receipt another year every 5 years until you reach the American average age at death (or 1-2 years before it)."
To make that more acceptable advance the age a week for every month that passes, instead of having a big jump every five years. This way, social security would be walking away from younger people rather than make a sprint every five years. Posted by: CtHillary, dead but dreaming at September 26, 2023 05:06 PM (zSyrn) 240

Posted by: Frasier Crane at September 26, 2023 05:12 PM (bNf8H) ++++ It depends on who you are. Disability fraud is rampant, and the best way to do it is to be on welfare. If you are, your state will probably pay a "navigator" to help you commit disability fraud. Welfare programs are, at least in part state-funded. Disability is federal. Every single person a state can move off the welfare rolls and onto the disability rolls is a net savings for the state. If you're actually disabled and not on welfare, then yeah - it is often a nightmare. If you have your state batting for you, though, it helps clear the way.

The average age of death in the USA is around 74. Maybe 75.
You bump up the age of SS and Medicare for new folks coming onto the programs to about 72-73. (over time obviously). And the program is pretty much where it is supposed to be. You clean out the illegals from the rolls. Stop wasting money on silly crap like the Ukraine, etc, etc. And in a few years things are manageable. But, we also need a roaring economy to keep everything running, which means we can't have the destroy energy production, destroy business, ship out jobs nonsense of Bidenomics or any other Democrat inspired economics. Honestly, I find it weird that the first thing out of "reformers" mouths is always strip benefits from the elderly who have lived properly under the system.

Often without context, Republicans have used video clips of Biden looking confused about where to go after speeches to raise further questions about his age.

For poor people SS is already an awesome deal. Relative to what they put in they get a lot out. Someone making $20-25k a year (in 2023 dollars) their entire working life does great with SS. Someone making $150k gets fucked.
It’s not a stretch to tell the $150k he gets nothing while doubling what the $25k gets. Posted by: Montec at September 26, 2023 05:23 PM (jNncL) Posted by: Bulgaroctonus at September 26, 2023 05:23 PM (xTRSc) 346
The way SS and Medicare is “solved” is by making it a full on welfare program. Did you save for 40 years while living a modest lifestyle and have a nice nest egg? Fuck you asshole you're too rich to qualify. Did you save nothing and life a lavish lifestyle for 40 years? Here you go sir, $3500 a month SS and free health insurance.

She's actually comparing Binden's incoherent ramblings with Trump. Her voice is like nails on a black board and her logic is typical of a Democrat foot soldier. It looked as if Gutfeld was ready to reach across the table and rip off her head. GAH!! Luckily, the commercial break was over on the channel I was watching (a history of volcanoes) so I switched off The Five. Holy crap. She makes Geraldo look like a genius.

NYPost:
Longtime Democratic strategist James Carville mocked the far-left wing of the Democratic Party as “stupid” and “naive” while appearing on Bill Maher’s “Club Random” podcast Sunday. “I find the left to be just annoying,” Carville told Maher. “The western far left is habitually the most stupid, naive people you can imagine. They come up with these really goofy constructs and it’s all about feeling good about yourself.” Maher agreed and criticized progressives for demanding society cater to their feelings. “If your feelings are hurt, that’s more important than free speech,” he argued. Carville revisited his criticisms of progressive Democrats later in the program, arguing they were a burden to the party. Carville said he found them “annoying and silly” after Maher mocked the notion of “pregnant men.” Posted by: Neo at September 26, 2023 05:38 PM (RovqD) 386
