I'm simply trying to demonstrate the futility of my struggle here. I've said my peace.
Struggle? What struggle? You have already proven yourself to be impervious to logic, reason, and critical thought. The deck is not stacked against you. It is stacked against us.
Case in point: For someone earning $12/hr their entire working life, they could have the option of retiring with over half a million dollars and drawing interest from that to the tune of $3,500/mo without touching the principle. Or they could hand their money over to government and live the remainder of their lives in poverty with a government check of a few hundred dollars each month and no $500K nest egg to will to their grandkids.
Any person with the ability to reason and think critically would pick option 1. But not you. Faced with a clear choice of one being better than the other, you choose to deny the undeniable and reject the truth of the matter. And for any Conservative, there is no way to 'win' against anyone who rejects truth.
