Iron Twinkie posted:It may be of little consolation, but even worrying about your retirement savings is a high class problem. Most of America's retirement options are just work until you die. While that is true, you can't blame people for worrying about their future, especially when paying into these funds means taking home less today for a payout 50 years from now.

Honestly - his mom sounds kinda dumb if you listen to some of the times she has been interviewed. Having said that, he was apparently abusive towards her too - it sounds like she was in hell behind closed doors: http://time.com/4898485/james-alex-fields-jr-mother-charlottesville-protest-driver/ quote:As officials try to make sense of the violent clashes at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., the mother of the man who allegedly plowed his car through a crowd of counter-protesters is also trying to understand her son’s actions.

PhazonLink posted:posting before I read all the new posts, like seriously whats the logic of the age restrction.(other than the old timey "well we only want rich older male WASPs) I'd have to check the federaliat papers but my guesses would be 1) you cant trust young people to have shown their character yet 2) Young folks have less experience 3) you don't want somebody's kid getting the job for dynastic reasons (ie President Chelsea) In more modern rationales, anyone under 35 making a bid for president is a lot more likely to be a Kennedy or Clinton or Bush than they are to be named Cortez. I think removing the retstriction would be more likely to aid elites rather than otherwise. Hell, there's a granddaughter of President Hoover who I see on talk shows and Colbert every so often. She's made a career out of being Hoover's granddaughter, with no other real qualifications.

I don't know much about his mom, but I can't even imagine how awkward it must be to go to the city where your son is known as "the guy who killed Heather Heyer". I don't blame her for her idiot son's actions, though. Same with the Kesslers. As far as I know, they're OK people but their son is a dumbfuck manchild.

CuddleCryptid posted:While that is true, you can't blame people for worrying about their future, especially when paying into these funds means taking home less today for a payout 50 years from now. You also don’t need to be rich to contribute to a 401k and plenty of people making low hourly wages will still toss in a few bucks a paycheck to get the company match. It allows for supplemental savings to go with social security. I know a woman who retired making 12.50/hr after 25 years with a company but had a decent chunk in her 401k because she put away 5-10$ a pay period for a long time. So she has some funds to couple with social security in retirement. This isn’t a unique story. I am not advocating for this trash system - just saying that it’s pretty naive and belittling to say that poor/underserved/low wage earners etc can’t have some skin in the game.

It also doesnt help that most of these guys are getting radicalized on the internet, and unless you are Too Online like we are it's hard to understand how or why. Traditionally you just had to keep your kids safe and away from "bad people" to give them a relatively stable upbringing. Now your son can spend all day on the computer and emerge a literal Nazi.

Also looks like the GOP in NC are giving a go at passing a bill that gives them control of election boards in election years. Well technically it says "political party with the highest number of registered affiliates" for odd years and "second highest" for even years. It just happens that NC has more registered democrats, and election years are even years, so yeah. https://www.ncleg.net/Sessions/2017/Bills/House/PDF/H1117v0.pdf

It allows for supplemental savings to go with social security. It also assumes a lot that people 1. Work for a company that offers a 401k 2. That company has a company match 3. Are financially stable enough to both have the disposable income to put into retirement savings and can reasonably assume they won't need it for the next 50 years and yeah echoing that the phase "skin in the game" makes my blood pressure spike and fills my head with visions of guillotines.

PhazonLink posted:posting before I read all the new posts, like seriously whats the logic of the age restrction.(other than the old timey "well we only want rich older male WASPs) The age restriction exists because despite what the young want to believe there is a general correlation between age, experience and maturity. Sure it's not uniform some younger people are more mature and experienced than older and as the Orange Traitor clearly demonstrates age does not guarantee maturity. But the age restrictions exist for the same reason that age restrictions exist for most privileges. The reason the age of consent for example is older than the age of sexual maturity is because as a society we recognize that there are real differences in the cognitive abilities of children and adults and that just because a childs body has developed secondary sex characteristics does not mean that they have the emotional maturity and experience to avoid blatant manipulation by older more experienced predators. It's also unlikely to change, because the only people who really oppose the restriction are people under the age of restriction and young people don't vote. It's kind of like how most children complain about school and insist that once they're of age they'll totally right that injustice only to become adults and parents and be like "noop that's the way it needs to be" when their own children say it to them.
