Comments on: We Are Facing a Demographic Collapse of Epic Proportions https://americanconservativemovement.com/we-are-facing-a-demographic-collapse-of-epic-proportions/ American exceptionalism isn't dead. It just needs to be embraced.

When I read statements like this one or hear people blame the elderly, it signals total ignorance. The elderly do not get entitlements, they get benefits that they paid for and earned with matching funds from their employers or self-employment. The job of government was to invest these funds and with the economic historic growth through the decades, these funds should be bursting at the seams with profit like the rail road retirement fund that opted out of social security. Greedy politicians made sure it did not happen. Instead they used this money as a slush fund, limited the money’s investment capability and gave the money to people who never earned it or weren’t entitled to it.

You are an immigrant 65 and older from say Ukraine, you get social security. You will find this information on the state department website for the corresponding countries. Americans not so lucky as the politicians keep pushing back the retirement age in hopes you don’t live long enough to collect. Come across the border with some aliment, you get social security disability and Medicaid. One of the processors did an interview readily available on Youtube. Yes and let’s ignore the statistics that 80% of the illegals are still on the welfare system after 5 years and 60% are still on welfare after 10 years. It is an absolute joke that these politicians believe these are the same illegals that will go fight their wars for citizenship. A grand delusion at best that is the main driver of inflation and price gouging. You work illegally using someone else’s social security number, the government slides the money into the general fund to spend on non-sense (see Social Security reports on their website), which even my own representative was shocked to learn and read about when I sent him the link. The government does not even bother to notify the person that their identity has been stolen. Imagine that! One third of the inmates in prison are using someone’s identity per a government study and the government along with a potential employer never does any notification to the American citizen who is being cheated out of life.

Then the government keeps transferring more and more money from Medicare to Medicaid to pay for children, illegals, indigent healthcare for inmates and those seeking gender surgery. At the same time, the price of Medicare for the elderly keeps going up with those at the bottom of the rung, due to offsets or low earnings, paying 15.5% of their social security for just basic Medicare. Almost the exact amount they paid for their entire working life with matching employer funds. Notice the word “offsets”. It is money the government takes from the elderly for any one stupid enough to go into teaching no matter how short the time period and implemented against anyone younger than 50 in 2004. Age discrimination per the government starts at 40. So how has this law not been over turned? Imagine being 49 and finding out the government can magically erase years you worked under social security if you didn’t earn the average wage amount of men and women combined. Boom 9 years gone with the stroke of a pen. These lifetime offsets mean lower COLA’s and a small pension that never receives a COLA. So many of the elderly are getting less and less money as inflation spirals out of control. To avoid ever having to file bankruptcy due to high deductibles on medical care and prescriptions along with an additional 15% of excess billing not covered by Medicare that can be billed to an unsuspecting population due to lobbyists, this elderly population has to take out Medigap at a current rate of $124.12 month to keep out of pocket at $300 for medical and $2,000 for prescriptions. Out of the recent 3.2% for 2024, this lousy $35 is lost by raising Medicare $10.80, Medigap raising the premium $20 per month, and prescription coverage $3 leaving granny with $1.08 COLA to cover the increase in gas, food, vehicle/home insurance, electric and garbage pickup increases. These tactics effect at least 15% of the total elderly population, the largest voting base, who will now stop showing up to vote as none of them work for us and want us dead. Politicians, like Ted Cruz, promised to fix it, but did nothing. Now Mike Thompson wants to raid social security and Medicare again at the behest of Demonrats. GOP governor Abbott cut off the second COLA in the history of Texas for retired teachers from 2020 and before. Why? The majority of the offsets effected teachers who retired in 2021 and beyond. When did the offsets legislation pass? 2004 along with a change to health care eligibility. And who was in control? The GOP. After the offsets passed, the state GOP under Rick Perry then changed the pension calculations from your three highest years of pay to five years to pay less and then underfunded the plan. Sad, but true and shocking to those that did not stay informed and reach retirement age to find they must keep working. Ah yes, the elusive work problem, because no one wants to hire ex-teachers for fear they are commie’s or libtard activists. This whole charade was based on the theory of “unjust enrichment”, but it is commonly known by those effected as “unjust poverty” as these same politicians pay illegals $2,000 a month. Yet an American that worked their entire life around minimum wage or more earns $1,000 a month prior to any Medicare deduction. The precedent has been set and soon the politicians will implement the same against every one. Not to mention that the majority of Medicare/Medicaid fraud is done by doctors and medical suppliers with very little restitution back to the fund.

The majority of elderly in the US now know that the government wants us dead, no matter the party. Operation Warp Speed to the grave that began in nursing homes is all we needed to see. So when no one believes the 2024 election cycle results, you’ll now know why and are only fooling yourselves. Every last one of them can go “f” themselves, because that is what they having been doing to every one born 1960 and before for decades. Now it is their turn. They have finally reaped what they have sowed and can now wallow in it.

We don’t need more people, we need a whole lot less government and make welfare a hand up with only a three year life time payout available to every one, not a hand out no matter whether it is funded under social service or DHS. The last step is to stop all these wars, which does nothing but end in death, destruction and inflation. History proves me right while you’re still drinking political kool-aid. It is one big uniparty and you my friend are not part of it, nor are the politicians, who mistakenly believe they will be protected. The Great Reset will take them down as well. Unless of course you lived in Texas for a long time, which the GOP just recently slid the Uniform Commercial Code changes for the great reset into law this year and it is not retroactive.

Tucker hits the nail right on the head, the GOP hates their voters, but is still blind that they also want us impoverished and dead. https://rumble.com/v427hie-tucker-carlson-the-republican-party-really-do-hate-their-own-voters-in-a-wa.html

They will say it’s too expensive. The problem is love of comfort and feminism. These are the main drivers behind Christians using birth control and the resulting small families. For every couple with serious and extremely costly medical issues to deal there are a dozen more who are able to have large families but many are extremely risk averse to the prospect of a large number of children. One of the biggest scare tactics intimidating Christians to have tiny families is the high cost of college. If you tell your kids “You have to pay for college” they will work Summer jobs and or enlist in the Armed Forces and get the GI Bill. Raising a large family is not the huge costly deal it’s claimed to be but if you confront Christians about it in a big setting you’ll be looking into the faces of adults with killer stares. Then they wonder why their kids vote Democrat and behave like pagans and postpone child bearing for a decade after marrying. Birth control is the giant elephant in the room and only became entrenched among Christians after 1930’s Anglican Lambeth Conference supported it. Prior to that condemnation of birth control was nearly universal among Christian churches. God said to man: “Be fruitful and multiply”. Very few Christians practice that now and few Christians (Catholics and other serious Protestants) will broach this topic of artificial contraception, its huge impact contributing to the birth dearth and the vocation for Christians to have large families that could reverse this grave demographic crisis. Let’s see if Discern Report will practice censorship on this topic or let it get through the filter.

No, it would depend on whether or not one believes homosexuality is a genetic, innate characteristic they’re born with, or is a sinful learned behavior. On that question, the data is exposing fact, more and more, that God’s word is indeed correct – it is rebellious, sinful behavior. Porneia is like a cancer.

He is just as easily an example of someone who was lured away from the Lord, and brainwashed into that abominable sin over the course of his lifetime, as he is an example of someone who shouldn’t have children.

The
reader will likely wonder what on earth that has to do with his call to America to have more children, then ask
himself, “On the other hand, isn’t that man the perfect article that not all Americans should have children?” At
minimum, that was a bizarre square to try and fit inside a circle here. At maximum, it completely undid the
argument in his otherwise column.

Now how many Christians use contraception? What would happen at a well attended conference of Christians now if this topic were to be addressed? Wives would be furious. You could hear a pin drop. Many self professed Christians will say “Well things are so expensive nowadays, we can only afford one-maximum two kids”. I know a Christian writer whose son had severe health issues costing tens of thousands of dollars for the parents. However for every married couple like his with a serious reason to avoid more children maybe there are 15 couples who are risk averse in the extreme, comfort living and who see having a less than materially blissful marriage as unthinkable. I’ll tell a true story about a man who had 6 children. When he married he and his wife immediately began having children. Pregnant with child #1 they had to flee a country over a real threat of kidnapping. The first child nearly died twice. The 2nd child was diagnosed with leukemia. After 9 and a half years of marriage, job losses, struggles of all types and low wages, his wife died. He remarried 2 years later and had a 6th child with his second wife. The most he’s ever earned has been appx $54,000 in a year. His kids don’t use drugs. Two have been in the Armed Forces to cover college costs. Two more may soon join. Yes you can have a larger family but be sure you discuss family before you go steady with a person. The man credits his Catholic Christian faith and the rosary with helping him make it through. Most American women and new, honestly, want ease and days without sacrifice and are feminists-the men too. Consider non American women but there are great American girls out there, too.

Then forced to get the vaccine. She then had a miscarriage. Now she can’t get pregnant. Doctors told her she’s no longer producing eggs.

The problem is the “vaccine”.
