Agree with the message but I doubt the chiefs nor Kelce cares.

Why?

Hear me out. If a $50k wages is $50k 10 years from now and all things stay the same why is that a problem? People at that wage can pay for a certain lifestyle at that wage forever.

Hear me out if all companies have a profit? Why have more profit next year? You can still grow you have profit.

Even loans still work as loans have profit built into them so what is the problem with stagnation

Rich people have private security and doctors. If a rich kid is having a seizure an ambulance will show up not the police and if they did private security would escort the police if they have emt experience

That 13% is $10k in the bottom 10% median individual income they were earning $8,801 in 2022. Which is $1,199 https://dqydj.com/average-median-top-individual-income-percentiles/

90% median individual income is $135,605 in 2023. In 2022 it was 132,676. Which is 2% ...but they got $2,929 Same source

98% and 99% saw the largest nominal amount increase. 98% got 13,901 more money between 2022 and 2023 99% got $5,878 more money between 2022 and 2023 Same source.

Obviously $1k for someone making $10k is significant than someone getting $2k making $130k

I was hoping productivity or efficiency would make up for it but looks like max we have gotten is about double efficiency. 1960 TEP is 66 on the scale and today 2022 and 2021 is 164-168. Meaning we are 100% more effective. So 2 workers are more like 4 workers in the 1960s. But it isn't the same as 6 to 1 ratio sadly

If you will be 18 during any elected official term you should be able to vote for them. This allows some kids to vote as young as 12 for senators and get to vote at 14 for president's and congress people. Then at the worst thing 18 year old seniors can vote for school admin elections

We could have universal healthcare if we take the money the us government already spends and cut out the middleman. In fact we would save money that doesn't even include what we spend already. Insurance is a scam and the fact healthcare and insurance became a for profit industry in 1970s....says a whole lot

You say that but it is a very unique etymology. The last 30 years have some very unique terms that wasn't a previous language derived term but has internet culture lore or even just a small subset culture reference.
Like the words glom and hawk tua are going to be some interesting explaining in 20 years

Her Wikipedia doesn't say she has DSD from my reading only thing we have is a corrupt IBA official claiming she violates the rule of having xy chromosomes right before her finals match. The IBA was suspended from Olympics for corruption and we have a failed testosterone test in her career. (Maybe she was doping, maybe it was a bad test, maybe she produces high testosterone)

We need confirmed facts which sucks for this lady. That being said all the boxing competitors in the IOC agreed to fight the other contestants. Then one girl got punch in the face and cried fowl.

One last attempt. Just cause Person A was disqualified from event B because of rule C saying people with D cannot compete. You are concluding person A has D. That event runner got in trouble for corruption. There could be other conclusions than making an assumption or jumping to conclusions. Way more variables and lots to question on the even runners and even the test.

At the end of the day we should have a more confirmed test but at the end of the day all the athletes were fine with all other participants until they werent

No direct source claims A has d. All direct sourced is Person A was disqualified from event B because of rule C saying people with D cannot compete
