Wither US Social Security payments?
Here's where the Republicans really are on Social Security, per CNBC: Trump plan would make Social Security insolvent in just 6 years, budget group says Published Mon, Oct 21 2024 2:40 PM EDT "Key Points Donald Trump’s tax-cut plans and other agenda items would hasten Social Security’s insolvency, a nonpartisan budget group said. The Republican nominee’s proposals would also expand Social Security’s cash shortfall by trillions of dollars and lead to even steeper benefit cuts in the coming years, the group estimated." Here's where some prominent Democrats are on Social Security: 02.27.2025 NEWS: As Republicans Attempt to Undermine Social Security, Sanders, Warren, Schakowsky, Hoyle Introduce Legislation to Expand Social Security "WASHINGTON, Feb. 27 – As Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress attempt to advance legislation to give massive tax breaks to billionaires and undermine Social Security, Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Ranking Member on the Senate Finance Committee's Subcommittee on Social Security, Pensions and Family Policy, and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), along with Reps. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) and Val Hoyle (D-Ore.), introduced the Social Security Expansion Act. The legislation would expand Social Security benefits by $2,400 a year and ensure Social Security is fully funded for the next 75 years by applying the Social Security payroll tax on all income above $250,000. Importantly, this legislation would not raise taxes by one penny on the over 91 percent of American households who make $250,000 or less." [emphasis added] https://www.help.senate.gov/dem/newsroom/press/news-as-republicans-attempt-to-undermine-social-security-sanders-warren-schakowsky-hoyle-introduce-legislation-to-expand-social-security Where does anyone thing Trump and Musk are going to come down on this? Protecting billionaires and millionaires, or preserving Social Security and providing a financial safety net for the 91% of American households earning less than $250,000 per year? The DOGE attack on various federal government departments is just the opening salvo in the Republicans attack on various federal programs that help support and protect the American non-millionaires and non-billionaires. And part of their movement to convince Americans that they can't rely on the federal government and its workforce to protect them against... who else... the millionaire and billionaire liars like Trump and Musk. -

Thailand Intensifies Crackdown on Illegal Foreign Businesses
That's an easy fix. They'll spin off and incorporate a few divisions in some lax countries and those divisions will be corporations unto themselves that operate under other laws. Corporate HQ will end up being a holding company with their Dutch operations limited to countries that require Euro standards. Which is what? Maybe 10-20% of the international hotel market? If the EU thinks they're going to dictate sustainability rules in Thailand and Japan and Korea and the USA, they have another think coming. -
