Fear of losing basic income is a great crime deterrent.

Are you going to steal from that gas station if you could lose your basic monthly check for 20+ years?

You think kids would drive drunk if you told them that if they were caught, they would lose their basic income for life? Most think it's a slap on the wrist, maybe some community service, IF they get caught.

Ticketmaster fees and charges are one thing.

But if someone is willing to pay 400+ dollars for a seat at a concert, Shouldn't they be able to do that over someone that just wants a cheap seat?

I had to look up what the summoner's tale was. I can say this from memory.

"Whan that Aprille with his shoures soote,

The droghte of March hath perced to the roote,

And bathed every veyne in swich licóur

Of which vertú engendred is the flour;

Whan Zephirus eek with his swete breeth

Inspired hath in every holt and heeth

The tendre croppes, and the yonge sonne

Hath in the Ram his halfe cours y-ronne,

And smale foweles maken melodye,

That slepen al the nyght with open ye,

So priketh hem Natúre in hir corages,

Thanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimages,

And palmeres for to seken straunge strondes,

To ferne halwes, kowthe in sondry londes;

And specially, from every shires ende

Of Engelond, to Caunterbury they wende,

The hooly blisful martir for to seke,

That hem hath holpen whan that they were seeke."

You can say good morning with an infection that makes it asking. Like if I looked over at you on the bus and go "good morning?". You'd know to reply that you were indeed having a good one. Same as if I said "rough morning?"

I would reply "Just saying"

It's totally conditioned to say it. I come from where the response to "How you doing?" Is "Good, you?", "Good"

If someone just said "Morning" to you, you've been conditioned to think something is wrong or they are having a bad day more than likely.

First impressions matter, and the first word out of your mouth better be good

You didn't have to memorize the Canterbury Tales?

Half a decade ago, Kendrick Lemar kicked a white woman off stage for saying it.

She apparently had the rap down and didn't think about it.

I wouldn't say it in public, in a quote or song. The amount of people that would get angry at you is more than the people that would stand up for you.

I knew a guy named Richard Odar, pronounced odor. He didn't go by Dick.

Black is wasting tempo to offer a queen trade

Black is not developing any pieces

Even without the blunder it's just a poor move

We administer retirement, disability, survivor, and family benefits, and enroll individuals in Medicare.

Social Security provides retirement income for almost every American worker.

An investment fund is a supply of capital belonging to numerous investors, used to collectively purchase securities, while each investor retains ownership and control of their own shares.

Investopedia.com

The only thing not making it an investment fund is that the government forcefully takes the money and you don't own the money after it is taken.

The average person gets the majority of their retirement income from SS.

Ask the average person what SS is. They will say that it is a retirement fund. What is a retirement fund? An investment fund.

Social insurance, as conceived by President Roosevelt, would address the permanent problem of economic security for the elderly by creating a work-related, contributory system in which workers would provide for their own future economic security through taxes paid while employed.
