nope....




FACT: number of Americans turning 65 (average age most people retire) daily.....6,000-8,000
number of Americans turning 18 (the average age for people ENTERING the workforce(BLS uses 16)) daily...... 13,000

and the "'millennials " are a BIGGER generation than the boomers, or gen x



there are 20,219,890 that are 15-19 in the usa

even http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_th...emocracy_Class states that 13,000 turn 18 every day

so the fact that 6,000-8,000 turn 65 everyday is NULLIFIED by the fact that =/=13,000 turn 18 every day


'many' 18yr olds go to college...62%...and many of those are also within the workforce...working their way through college 71% of college student are also working
More students working (a lot) in college - CBS News


fact is the average retirement age is about 65 (64 to be exact)
The Average Retirement Age
yes many can retire early...but most dont

yes many can retire more than once...(I already have one pension, and am just about to finish my second) aka STILL WORKING, but very close ( I will hit 60 in May and will retire on my birthday)


and BTW...most boomers are putting retirement off

Why are Americans putting off retirement? - CBS News

I used 4 different sources, so you cant say ''biased like faux"

Really. So it doesn't matter that Biden sent 70 planeloads of illegals to FL to begin with ?
That doesn't count. Only what the Republicans do count in your eyes ?

More than 70 flights transporting migrants from the southern border to Jacksonville have landed in the dark of night in recent months as the Biden administration struggles to empty overflowing border facilities, the office of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said.

It is the first time the state of Florida has disclosed the number of confirmed flights arriving in the state since the summer. The governor's office has scrambled in recent weeks to uncover who is facilitating the mystery flights landing in northern Florida daily, but the Biden administration has refused to disclose any information, one official said.
..
In October, the New York Post reported similar flights arriving in Westchester, New York, throughout the summer.

No hypocrisy. He did wrong. Regardless of who is messing up with the border. DiSantis broke a law and carried out an inhumane act. Hate all the people you want- he still did wrong.

No it doesn’t count. Why? It’s within the law and right jurisdiction. That’s why. It’s done properly. He can fight that through congress and laws - not act like a disgruntled 5 yr old hiding mama’ car keys because can’t go out and play.

That’s it. It’s over, guys

A leftist like tinytrump said DeSantis is wrong, therefore, he must be wrong

What law did he break?

Why is it inhumane to send folks to sanctuary states, especially Dem areas where folks are so in favor of open borders and millions coming into the country?

Why would you want these folks to live in a state where you hate the Governor, especially since so many have already been dropped in Florida?
