Deep dives
Bob Goode's endorsement of DeSantis is causing problems in his campaign
Bob Goode's decision to endorse Ron DeSantis for president is turning into a disaster for his campaign. The Trump campaign manager, Chris LaCivita, has stated that Goode won't be electable when they are done with him. This decision is raising questions about Goode's judgment and loyalty to Trump. Many believe that sticking with DeSantis, who has no chance of winning, is a mistake that could cost him the election. It is unclear why Goode has decided to back DeSantis, but it is causing division within his own campaign and may have a negative impact on his chances of winning.
Social Security Trust Fund is projected to run out by 2033
The OASI Trust Fund, which is part of Social Security, is projected to run out of funds by 2033, earlier than previously estimated. This will result in a 23% across-the-board cut in Social Security income benefits for all recipients. The current worker-to-recipient ratio is significantly lower than in the past, putting a strain on the fund. Solutions proposed include removing the income threshold for Social Security taxes and addressing fraud and abuse in the system. It is recommended that individuals have a retirement income plan in addition to Social Security to ensure financial stability in retirement.
Importance of seeking retirement income planning rather than relying solely on Social Security
It is crucial for individuals to have a retirement income plan that goes beyond just relying on Social Security. Social Security, while essential, may not provide sufficient income for a comfortable retirement. Factors such as taxation, timing of benefits, and potential cuts should be considered. Seeking professional retirement income planning advice can help individuals maximize their Social Security benefits, reduce taxation, and develop diversified retirement income sources. Taking proactive steps to secure retirement income is essential, especially in light of the projected challenges facing the Social Security system.
Entrance interviews in New Hampshire primary raise concerns
Entrance interviews, where voters are asked who they plan to vote for and why as they enter polling booths, have raised concerns. While the voters have the right to refuse the interview, some find it intrusive. Media outlets have been conducting these interviews to gain insights into voter preferences and motivations. However, there are regulations in place to ensure voters are not harassed and can proceed to vote without interference. The process is separate from exit interviews, where voters are asked about their voting experience after casting their ballots.
