Let people do something about this shit! Let them reach for their wallets.

 

[Jan2017]

Mike Lee : " . . . a vote to raid social security in the middle of the night in a desperate attempt to perpetuate an unsustainable spending addiction isn't a sign of strength."

I just made http://imgur.com/gallery/A07Iu6e anything I should add? I know imgur is a liberal cesspool, but I know liberals arent exactly for cutting social security so I think this would resonate with them a bit. I believe behind Sanders, Paul is the favorite of most viewers. Feel free to upvote it to get it more views if you want. Imgur is a pretty large community that can help garner more attention to the subject.

Let's say I have 100k in my pension plan but I want to go to the race track. I'm willing to take 100k out, and I'm willing to pay a 30k penalty, but I'm willing to do it because I'm an addict. And I'm addicted to spending. And I'm going to spend the money now.

Seems like a not at all veiled shot at a one Marco Rubio?

Let's assume he's in the 33% bracket. That means he probably had to pony up roughly $30,000 in taxes and penalties on his IRA cash-out. That means he would have netted only $38,000 from the original $68,000.

Where can I find how this bill says it will give unlimited amounts of spending money to the president? Anything other than Rand's words? Obviously I trust Rand, but I want to prove to somebody.

Yeah, those are good spots to hit.

You can drop a link to the event, or the page, or embed one of the money bomb graphics or video right in the comments.

Right click on one of the posts on the Rand Paul Money Bomb Facebook page and copy the link location. Then paste that as a comment.

[Jan2017]

Where can I find how this bill says it will give unlimited amounts of spending money to the president? . . .

Raising the debt ceiling through March 2017 is the common narrative . . . Rand and Cruz and Lee and press corps and all.

The vote roll call here . . .

links to the bill . . .https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/1314
with links to the text/amendments yadayadayada at
H.R.1314 - Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015
https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th...14/text#toc-H58D50A5CEB954A17808FBAC2CFA3AA97

But your question got me to wondering why no one in the media is mentioning the Social Security Act changes
-or- what Cruz was talking about oil reserves gonna be sold while the oil barrel price is low to cover their arses. Stuff is in there.

TITLE IV—STRATEGIC PETROLEUM RESERVE

TITLE VIII—SOCIAL SECURITY

SEC. 833. REALLOCATION OF PAYROLL TAX REVENUE.

(1) WAGES.—Section 201(b)(1) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 401(b)(1)) is amended by striking “and (R) 1.80 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 1999, and so reported” and inserting “(R) 1.80 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 1999, and before January 1, 2016, and so reported, (S) 2.37 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 2015, and before January 1, 2019, and so reported, and (T) 1.80 per centum of the wages (as so defined) paid after December 31, 2018, and so reported,”.
(2) SELF-EMPLOYMENT INCOME.—Section 201(b)(2) of such Act (42 U.S.C. 401(b)(2)) is amended by striking “and (R) 1.80 per centum of the amount of self-employment income (as so defined) so reported for any taxable year beginning after December 31, 1999”and inserting “(R) 1.80 per centum of the amount of self-employment income (as so defined) so reported for any taxable year beginning after December 31, 1999, and before January 1, 2016, (S) 2.37 per centum of the amount of self-employment income (as so defined) so reported for any taxable year beginning after December 31, 2015, and before January 1, 2019, and (T) 1.80 per centum of the amount of self-employment income (as so defined) so reported for any taxable year beginning after December 31, 2018”.

relocation of wages and self-employment income for all of 2016, 2017, and 2018 changed from 1.80% to 2.37% then goes back to 1.80% - I guess (?)
But, I am sure your local "constituent services" office will explain it better with a phone call from ya' all. Just ask 'em Granny!

Amazing.


If anyone else was the main subject of a viral video, they'd be begged to be on the news all day and night.

So who wants to start a wager on how soon the Hannitys, Limbaughs, etc. start giving credit to Cruz for this and how without support from a senate vote from Rubio then none of this would had come to light... and then somehow fit Trump into the conversation without naming Rand Paul?

Either that or "this was just a political stunt because he's trailing in the polls"

or they can just lift Badger Paul's thread. They will love what he has to say.

There is a lot more to this then fiscal responsibility, hopefully this pays off because we now are escalating the Syrian conflict by deploying boots to Syria in order to oust Assad while simultaneously giving the military industrial complex a blank check to spend as much as it wants. This comes at a time when Russia and China have been happy to show off their new military capabilities. Russia recently started bombing the moderates we have been arming with new advanced weapons, and when China had its military parade to "celebrate" winning world war 2 they paraded their new weapons.
