Agree. Removing the cap on SS income contributions is a better way.

The problem with contributing general funds is that then they could take from it for general funds. There is a reason why it’s separate.

Most people get confused by how SS works and so we should be average when communicating about it.

It’s too easy to use an inflation measure which is not accurate.

Would be fine with them earning a multiple of minimum wage so when they raise their salary they raise the minimum.

Social security is NOT part of balancing the budget. Other than that this seems accurate.

Vast current areas become arid but vast areas in Siberia and Canada become arable. Very bad but not extinction for humans. Likely extinction for many species though.

If males gave birth then it would be females that competed for access to us and became physically stronger than males. The only thing that would change is the name of the physically and politically powerful gender.

It wouldn’t make society better. Hyenas have bigger stronger dominant females and they have no utopia. Seahorse males give birth, they are the more maternal, females cheat on them.

Only fundamental difference between male and female is size and motility of sex cells. Only reason animals like us vary in size and strength is due to difference in offspring investment strategies.

But not Palantir.
