I just use TurboTax, which asks you questions in order to generate your return, and automatically integrates with most online accounts. There are free alternatives, too.
I go to lemmy first, but it doesn’t have nearly enough content to replace the endless scrolling of Reddit.
Yes.
I mean, I’d be very bored with that content, so I’d see it more as getting paid 10k to stop consuming media for a year.
It would be a good excuse to do more writing, and getting out and socializing.
Like people don’t lose their saving in the market anyway? But when your 401k goes in the tank, your broker doesn’t have the legal obligation to fund your retirement.
401k plans are a scam not because of what they are, but what they replaced.
Companies used to offer pensions. These were retirement benefits that were handled by the company, and the company bore the risk of underperforming markets.
For a number of reasons, pensions were much better for workers. Now, only some unionized workers get them.
Boomers vote because they are already registered, know where to go, have transportation, have time to do it. They can go out the door on election day and just get it done.
Younger people, especially college age, aren’t registered in the states they live in, have no idea how to get registered, have to go through a much more complicated process of absentee voting, and have to do much of these things well in advance. They are less likely to have transportation, or a schedule that allows them to do it.
Oh, and most importantly, we haven’t given young people a candidate to get excited about in a general election in at least 40 years
If Democrats wanted to harness the power of young voters, they needed to give them Bernie.
Instead we got aptly-named Sleepy Joe.
Now we got what Boomers wanted: Bidenomics. Everyone claims Bidenomics is going well, but young people can’t afford their loans, healthcare, childcare, or rent. So what’s with all the cork-popping.
The fact is, were a nation in absolute crisis, and Democrat Boomers absolutely will not acknowledge it. They got their SUVs, stock portfolios, social security, houses, pensions, and medicare. So fuck everyone else.
It’s just a lack of posts and comments. It’s not busy enough here to allow for endless scrolling.
Trump dying now would be terrible for the country. If we’re ever going to heal as a nation, the MAGA cult has to see this guy behind bars, and see the rest of the Republican leadership at long last disown him.
Senators are (with few exceptions) extraordinarily wealthy. When climate change is destroying crops and making some areas uninhabitable, these senators’ families will still be living very comfortably.
Remember when they owned us by refusing to vaccinate, and mask, and eventually breathe?
As if someone like Trump would even give a second thought to sending his kids off to war?
How about a new rule that if you vote for a war, you are automatically enlisted. And if you’re ineligible to enlist you must either abstain or vote no.
Garland didn’t even go after Trump for the Obstruction charges from the Mueller report.
Garland is acting like a Trump stooge.
Yes and no.
Firstly, Trump already had his guy investigating Hunter, and when the Biden admin came in, they allowed that investigation to continue, with the unprecedented step that Trump’s c guy didn’t even have to answer Biden’s DoJ.
From that investigation they found … nothing. No Biden crime family. Nothing. Some minor tax issues and also Biden lied on a gun application by saying he wasn’t a drug addict. It’s bad, sure but absolutely nothing to do with the allegations that started the investigation.
So essentially we have a private citizen that’s been investigated to an obscene degree. But Republicans can’t let it go, because if there’s one thing that defines them it’s that they fiercely believe things that have no evidentiary basis, and no amount of logic or reason can change their minds.
So, I don’t know what this nonsense is, with Garland appeasing the right wing even further on this. It’s harassment of Hunter at this point, not any actual pursuit of the truth.
Meanwhile Trump’s own family nakedly traded favors for cash when Trump GAVE THEM JOBS IN HIS ADMINISTRATION, and Garland isn’t even investigating those deals…I mean, the Saudi’s gave Trump’s son-in-law $2 BILLION.
Garland is once again opting for the appearance of impartiality, instead of actually faithfully executing his duties impartiality.
The Trump crime family is a real thing that we’ve all seen hard evidence of. The Biden crime family is a fiction. He’s acting as if it’s the other way around. Shame on him.
That there wasn’t a single mainstream Republican who stood up to Trump during his presidency.
I mean, come on. Who wrote this?
We’re supposed to believe that EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN in government went from taking about how unfit Trump was when he was a candidate … to standing behind him 100% even when he cozied up to Russia, paid hush money to a porn star, and lied about a Presidential election?
