I feel the hit every time we go to the store. I really feel for people that can’t afford it.

They’ll more than likely, from what I’m hearing, raise the retirement age to 70.

It's fun to mess with opposing teams too. Be like Frodo. Keep it secret, keep it safe PNG Insiders. 🤫

Wanna bet? These are the faces of your democratic party. They are the faces into which mics get shoved. You have to live with their outcome.

Yeah… that’s us, bro…everybody else from 10-4A D1 has been eliminated. It’s us against the world AverageJoe…. We opt up to play larger schools and that’s “running from competition.” We beat schools in our district and that’s “bullying” those bigger schools. Everybody picks Chapell Hill to beat us, but when we knock them off, it’s “oh, CH isn’t CH this year.” We opted up a division, went 9-1 in the regular season, with that lone loss being the result of cheating that resulted in our opponent being punished by the UIL. We won our district. Then we won a playoff game against an opponent that everyone agreed was going to smoke us down. But somehow we’re the bad guys. If think BC has earned some respect this year, and if y’all don’t feel that way, we don’t care. We’re going to support our kids and recognize and defend what they’ve accomplished, whether y’all do or not. And I won’t apologize if that rubs you the wrong way.

Social Security won't disappear completely, but it will be unable to pay 100% of promised benefits in the future without legislative action. Projections indicate that around 2034, the program will only be able to pay about 81% of disability benefits and 77% of retirement benefits based on current law, due to the depletion of trust fund reserves. This means benefit payments will likely be reduced unless Congress acts to make changes

The government does not cap how much you can make in general after retirement, but there is a limit on how much you can earn while receiving Social Security retirement benefitsbefore your full retirement age. This earnings limit exists to encourage people to wait until full retirement age to receive their benefits and to act as a way to manage the program's long-term costs. If you earn above the limit before your full retirement age, a portion of your benefits is temporarily withheld, but your benefit amount is increased at full retirement age to account for the withheld payments. Regan, your thoughts?

UMMM...not really because the UIL put: West Orange, Silsbee, Hamshire-Fannett, Jasper, Shepherd, and Tarkington in front of you and you opted up. Sorry, just the truth.

Good luck this week though. Would love to see how you guys fare against the Bulldogs.

Honestly, I'm new here. Family moved to the Sour Lake area in July. I want to root for all of 10-4A in the playoffs, but I have found the BC fans to be the most arrogant and rather annoying group I've interacted with on this message board. BC fans I've met in person haven't been much better. Hard to root for you guys if I'm being completely honest. Maybe I shouldn't hold it against the kids...but the limited number of people I've interacted with have made me have a general dislike for BC unfortunately.

I went to the store (wal-mart) the other day and got a bag of dog food ($50), 2 different dog treats, gallon of tea, 4 cucumbers, salad dressing, a couple other things I can't remember and it was $130...... In my head I was thinking $80 - not counting dog food, there were only 4 small bags........ That was not a warm and fuzzy feeling

Can you answer this question that has bothered me for a long time. Since my retirement why am I capped on how much I can earn in a year? If I am willing to work and I pay my taxes why handicap me. Is this how they separate the haves and have not. This year I believe the cap is $24000.00.

Honest question. What polls do you give weight to.
-
I don't see that happening for a long time. I think a 4.5-5% Mortgage is affordable and possible. Lower is always better BUT, it also gets people to buy a more expensive house because they can afford the note.....Often, what they find is a bigger home is a higher tax bill, higher insurance bill, higher utility bills and higher repair and replacement cost. That big house you got on a "deal" in 20 years will cost you 25K to replace the roof versus 10K or less for a more modern house. These are things Dad preached to me about when I thought I knew everything.....LOL

They polled 1005 people in that poll, it’s why I never trust them.
-
Today it is $2.85. That is a valid point.

I wonder how much of the $2.79 is taxes? Plus, maybe, built in State regulations that drive the price up?
-
Energy prices really depend on your location. The east coast has not felt that relief yet. In October I saw gas as low as $2.19 in Southeast Texas, while at the same time $2.79 on the east coast. Groceries are still pricey.
