2 topics that it seems like 90% of my demographic cares about, I will not be voting R for a state position until both are legal (I'm a registered independent).

I am all for abortions and giving women unrestricted access to get abortions. There is a need for abortions for the benefit of society.
The police pension is in much worse shape than teachers. You give a shit about them? And KRS is the fund that is dragging down KY and it doesn't cover teachers. You guys have very little clue about the actual facts of the pension problem. The employees have been paying into their funds. The state has not, it is their fault the funds are ****ed up. They also tried to invest in high risk hedge funds to recoup dwindling assets and got burned and also got caught funneling tons of money to placement agents.
Fun fact: 8/10 KY governors since 1971 have been D.
Go eat your lunch on some other board.

What happens when Trump wins the popular vote in 2020 and he gets an additional 75 electoral votes from states that didn't vote for him?
Hilarity. That's what happens

poor baby Trump says he can't work with Congress on any legislation while under investigation.
Day before yesterday. Wow.
Wow. Lots of old cars for a 2019 rally.
Well played troll sir.
Forgot to add many old-timer automobile fans also attended that rally.
Maybe the legislature should legislate then and send something to his desk to sign. Would be really embarrassing for Trump if the legislative branch sent some legislation for him to refuse to sign rather than illegal subpoenas.
In reality though, I'm disappointed he is the one that broke out, "you can't investigate and legislate". He should have opened investigations into every Democrat and their families just like was done to him. Let them be the ones that say they can't legislate while being investigated.
You obviously don't.
Every private sector pension has been is bering phased out for a reason. The math doesn't work. Almost all are based on very optimistic returns and other factors. It is not like pensions are centuries old and just now hitting the skids. Most are now hitting their 2nd or 3rd generation and can't keep up in their own model (which btw was designed and mgd by the recipients). Yes the State has not funded to the level they should have....how has Bevin funding stacked against Beshear?...but that money would have to come from somewhere else. Lastly, the vast majority of poorly funded funds are in Dem-controlled areas because that is where the systems are most favorably modeled for employees.
Are you talking about the time you bragged about your inheritance or the time you thought J. Edgar Hoover was on Mount Rushmore?
Or his 5% net tax.
Lol forgot about his 5% effective tax rate. And he just claimed hes making a ton of wage income from UPS? Totally jives.
I mean, only paying 5% on a UPS manager salary would be pretty dope. Please drop the details of how that works, Platinumdumb!
Qwesley, to be “highly educated” I’ll take it that neither math nor finance is part of that education.
The math works very well. Actuaries can tell you how much is needed for a pension plan to remain solvent. Those states that have listened to their actuaries and fully funded their plans are in super shape.
The business world got away from defined benefit plans for multiple reasons...the main one being that it freed them from the risk of holding the plans. They were long term liabilities for companies that were wanting to sell and the equity holders cash out.
States got in trouble with their plans in the 90’s when the market was strong and most pension plans were over funded. They stopped and/or cut back on contributions and started spending that money on other things. As the market pulled back suddenly those overfunded plans were underfunded. However, if they had simply listened to their actuaries and continued to contribute as they had they would be fully funded just as those states and plans that did so.
The math works the very same as your 401k. Speaking of 401k’s...just wait until the first market crash to happen when all of the Baby Boomers and Gen Xers who are dependent on their 401k ‘s which they failed to fund, hits. It will not be pretty.
Discuss a topic long enough on here and someone'll generally let the cat out of the bag on the right's true motivations.
Yep, when Ocrazio speaks, Trumps approval rating goes up a few points so, keep on talking Whacko Woman.

You realize that the one who got the money opines for higher taxes and the rich giving a lot of their money to the poor. Now he needs to put his money literally where his mouth tells everyone else to.
Market-based>>>>>>guaranteed obligation
Whatever happens with my 401k I know the risks and not asking anyone to guarantee it. Funds are in trouble around the country because govts have to balance their budget and more retirees have hit the system and are living on average to their mid-80s, Why are hugely liberal areas like CA and IL so poorly funded?
Was curious about this one...LOL
People who aren't putting into their 401ks are going to be dependent on those 401ks?
I doubt things are pretty for those type of people anyways...
Hahahahaha. Thanks Austin. I needed a good pick me up today and that fit the bill.
