You are one despicable ----.

Swallow it.

More reading for your cultist pleasure:

Here comes dem dose receipts, VISITOR_, you dirt rotten cultist:

The response to the alias known as VISTIOR_ is largely accurate and provides a well-reasoned argument against the comparison of Social Security to a Ponzi scheme. Let's break down the key points:

1. Social Security as an equilibrium equation: This is correct. Social Security is designed to balance income from current workers with payouts to current retirees[1][5].

2. Historical surplus: The statement about Reagan changing percentages and creating a surplus is accurate. The 1983 reforms under Reagan did increase payroll taxes and created a surplus in the Social Security trust fund[1].

3. Predictability of challenges: The response correctly points out that the strain on Social Security due to Baby Boomer retirements was anticipated well in advance. This long-term planning and transparency are in stark contrast to Ponzi schemes[1][3].

4. Potential for balance: The suggestion that adding 1 percentage point each to employer and employee contributions could balance Social Security for 75 years is a simplification, but it accurately reflects that the system can be adjusted to maintain solvency, unlike Ponzi schemes[3][5].

5. Transparency vs. opacity: The response correctly highlights that Social Security is transparent, with clear formulas and regular reporting, while Ponzi schemes are intentionally opaque[3][5].

6. Structural differences: The response accurately points out that Social Security, unlike Ponzi schemes, can be brought into balance through adjustments[3][5].

The only minor inaccuracy is the specific year mentioned for Social Security going "underwater." The exact timing of trust fund depletion has varied in projections over the years, but recent estimates suggest it will occur in the mid-2030s, not 2012[1][3].

In conclusion, the response provides an accurate and well-informed rebuttal to the claim that Social Security is like a Ponzi scheme, highlighting key structural and operational differences between the two.

Who gives a ---- about JPW?

Why don't you actually comment on the context of this ------- situation, cultist?

Allowing unfettered asylum immigration was humiliating, made US look stupid the world over.

Link up, -------. No way in hell you can credibly corroborate that statement.

Swallow it.

All these demmies want to know is right there on DOGE.gov for all to see : )

You're such a sucker, cultist.

Bannon didn't give Trump $300 million. Musk is going nowhere.

So you don't like that AI platform?

"but you need to think it through and not just be programmed like a robot."

The irony in this statement is absolutely rife.

And that's the link to the actual query.

"Did RFK Jr. recently pronounce that bird flu should be allowed to spread without countermeasures?" through perplexity.ai

Don't know where you got that. He's the guy that stated biosecurity was the way to go. I heard the 14 out of 15 hatcheroies quote from him on youtube explaining it.

Yes, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently proposed allowing bird flu to spread naturally among poultry flocks as a strategy to identify birds with natural immunity. He made this suggestion during multiple interviews on Fox News, advocating for farmers to let the virus propagate instead of culling infected birds. Kennedy argued that this approach could help preserve immune birds, but his proposal has been widely criticized by veterinary experts and scientists as dangerous, inhumane, and impractical[1][2][3][6][7].

Why are you ignoring the context provided in #41?

Are you having another episode?

But biosecurity worked. And why living ---- are people posting links to MSM sites? That's fake news! Next you'll be shouting that COVID-19 came from a bat ------- a pangolin. Don't ------- read newspapers for science! That's like going to the New York Times or WaPo for the truth about RussiaGate or the Laptop or a billion other things. Jesus, those days are over.

WTF happened? We were having a perfectly fine conversation. Then you went all 4chan. Why? You're still screaming fake news? JFC man.

Culling had no effect.

What do you think about RFK's stance that it should be let loose?

You should give perplexity.ai a try.

The claim about "bio-securing hatcheries" and stopping the bird flu in 14 or 15 facilities with minimal, cost-effective measures aligns with the broader strategies being implemented to combat avian influenza. Here's how it fits into the context of current efforts:

Biosecurity in Hatcheries
- Key Measures: Biosecurity involves a series of practices aimed at preventing the introduction and spread of pathogens. For hatcheries, this includes controlling access, maintaining hygiene, segregating flocks, and ensuring proper cleaning, disinfection, and fumigation of facilities and equipment[1][6].
- Cost-Effective Solutions: Simple steps like patching up facilities or improving barriers can make a significant difference. For example, preventing wild bird access and improving sanitation are relatively low-cost measures that have proven effective in reducing outbreaks[2][4].

Success Stories
- USDA Initiatives: The USDA has been investing heavily in biosecurity upgrades, including funding up to 75% of the cost for producers to address vulnerabilities. Facilities that implemented these measures have seen substantial success, with minimal outbreaks reported among those following gold-standard protocols[3][7].
- Hatchery-Specific Actions: Weekly testing of breeder flocks, early fumigation of eggs, and strict hygiene protocols for personnel entering hatcheries have been critical in controlling disease spread within hatcheries[1][6].

The claim that minimal investments in biosecurity helped control bird flu in several facilities aligns with documented strategies. While these measures may seem simple (e.g., patching up facilities), they are part of a broader framework that emphasizes prevention through targeted biosecurity practices.

I would appreciate a source to read deeper into that. Thank you.

Retail egg prices remain high despite a significant drop in wholesale prices. Wholesale costs for large eggs have fallen by over 40% since late February, reaching a national average of $4.15 - $4.83 per dozen, depending on the region[1][9][10]. However, grocery stores have been slow to adjust retail prices, largely due to inventory dynamics and pricing strategies. Eggs currently on store shelves were purchased at higher wholesale rates weeks ago, and retailers may delay price reductions until older stock is sold[2][10].

Economists predict that retail prices will begin to decline within the next few weeks if bird flu remains under control and supply continues to stabilize[9][10]. However, regional differences and retailer policies could result in uneven price drops across the country[2].

gss prices are dropping and the plan is working, and has been for weeks now.

Wait, what's the plan? Be specific.

Go to bed, LAMPY.
