They could have left a naked “average” at the end of the sentence and it would have made sense to assume ‘appropriate methods’. They could have thrown in an appropriate qualifier do describe the cohort they’re comparing him to “most people approaching retirement age.”
They chose to say “the average American” which makes the statement somewhere between misleading and an outright fabrication.
You can’t just bait-and-switch the headline. Don’t say “these things are equivalent” and then turn around and say “it doesn’t make sense to compare these things.”
If I had an investment account that would give me $10k per year, it would be worth about $125k. If I was entitled to $10k a year through a pension, wouldnt it be fair to say that entitlement is an asset that’s worth (at least a portion of) that same value?
2 teachers, military and Congress. I’m not saying they’re billionaires, or even that they’re closer to one than normal.
They did and we should.
It’s incongruent with the headline. “The average American” is not the same population as “the average member of the ‘pull up the ladder’ generation.”
This does gloss over the multiple pensions, doesn’t it?

“I’m right. Everybody who disagrees with me is wrong. ‘fact checkers’ disagree with me, so they must be lying.” Is well within the person woman man camera TV brain.
It’s not quite the self-report that you think it is. Refusing to accept fact checking is a rational decision in the hypothetical framework that the participant is being honest and the checker is unreliable or dishonest.

Conspiracies are cool, but don’t just make shit up.

Aside from the rather extreme criticisms (genocide stuff), universal registration is a bad idea for everyone because these things keep getting hacked/leaked:
If you are on the registry, it’s an invitation to descrimination or careful/skilled burglary.
If you aren’t on the registry, it’s an invitation for violent crime with little/no resistance.
Lol, hears gang and thinks minority.
You need to reassess how you think about people.
Excluding all the car-on-pedestrian deaths would be like excluding all the gunman-on-unarmed deaths, lol.
What about round corners?
I have dozens hanging in my closet. I’m sure I could take you.
