People don't expect to get social security and thus start rumbling about not wanting to pay into it at all anymore, get rid of it. the same will occur with medicare if we let that casual language be used anywhere near our very much endangered entitlements. not that they aren't likely already ruined beyond repair after Trump's done in Washington.

FactsAreUseless posted:The article in question. The phrase in question is used in the lede. The author, Jennifer Steinhauer, mostly writes about the Trump administration and Congressional politics over the last few months. Judging from her Twitter there isn't any reason to believe she's making a value statement about Medicare and SS, just saying that they cost a lot of money to run. I'm the proper use of em dashes in the lede also this is a good reminder that I should kickstart the journalism thread, it's been a month and the rhetoric of fake news is continuing to ramp up ramping up to what? Ed Balls, of course. ----------------

zegermans posted:They would have been run out of town on a rail, but the coal mine shut down all the rail lines and then the rail lines were all scrapped for heroin. That expression actually is much older and refers to hog-tying the person to a fence rail and then carting them out to the town limits and dumping them. Of course, all the fence rails have also been sold for heroin so your larger point stands.

Regular Nintendo posted:drat i didnt know we still did that I was kicked out of a county in central Illinois. They put out a geographical arrest warrant on me. It could only be served inside that county should I ever return there. It's still an open warrant last I checked, 14 years later. It's pretty funny, especially the few times I've seen cops run my name since then and get upset that they can't arrest me.

So are you just expected to like, take being raped as a part of life as a woman? Or lying in the street to die if you have a major illness? I guess the heroin and oxy is part of the solution?
