This is all moot for 2 reasons anyhow...
1. We've already debunked Second's Social Security fantasy a few months back and either he's forgotten that happened or he thinks we did.
2. I'll be just fine with my $816 per month social security the second I'm old enough to take it and I'm just as impressed with any rich people getting $4555 per month in retirement as I am anybody making 6 or 7 figures at their jobs right now. Which is to say not at all.

The Germans are so jealous of Mars. Pretty much everyone in the world is jealous of Mars.
The only reason that Muslims aren't allowed on Mars is because America hasn't conquered it and set up an Embassy.
True.

Could we put them all on a rocket and send it to the sun?
Ew... The sun would smell like curry. You can't ever get that smell out.
The best example of 6ix being an asshole, and using the fewest words, is when he writes "Fuck Ukraine." The worst example is 6ix stealing from his dead grandmother. He is smart enough not to admit in writing to screwing his relatives, but he is doing it. Now I expect him to be all upset about that accusation, just like Russians are about accusations of stealing in Ukraine, but 6ix and Russians can’t prove they are honest. When circumstances allow them to be crooks, Russians and 6ix take advantage because of their poverty.

I'm not upset about your accusation because it's entirely false. 
My old man wanted nothing at all from the house or the garage. Ditto on my Uncle and his family, except for my cousin who still needs to go through all the paintings that were hung up in the house before they go to goodwill. My uncle already cleared out anything he wanted from the garage last year except for a white cabinet that was stuffed to the gills. I've laid that all out on the workbench for him to sift through before it goes out, and with a cursory look the other day he said it was all junk. My aunt just went through the two dinette cabinets today and got the fine china and real silverware she wanted and has the rest out on the floor to pack up for goodwill. She just got 7 totes of things she wanted over to her apartment tonight. All she really cared about was the Christmas stuff, an antique music box, some cool stained glass pieces and the family photos.
Aside from a lot of wood that I took for my workshop, all I've got is a solid wood bookcase from back in the days when they didn't use pressed shit, a bench vice and an antique drill press. All of which I asked my uncle if he wanted first.
There's nothing but junk in that house. I started clearing it out with my deceased uncle when I was 11 years old and we're finally finishing the job this month.
My family is grateful to me for doing all of this work over the last year so they don't have to worry about any of it before they put it on the market.
I'm a fuckin' hero right now.
And get my grandma's name out of your fucking mouth, worm.

Meanwhile ... Bakhmut will be taken by Russia soon. Tens of thousans of Ukie soldiers ahve been killed there. Kiev forces are under pressure across the whole northern front and there is fighting near Ugledar. Rumor is that Russia is preparing an offensive from Zaparhozye, which is (some say) the location that Ukraine was going to attack in their long-discussed "spring offensive". And the Russian conscripts haven't even been fielded. Yet.

Accidental Czar: The Life and Lies of Vladimir Putin by Andrew S. Weiss
When I was thirteen years old, Ronald Reagan became president. All his tough talk about the Soviet Union being the Evil Empire sounded like dangerous fearmongering. And to a rebellious teenager eager to escape Southern California, it was hard to think of anything more exotic than the U.S.S.R. So on my first day of college in 1986, I threw myself into studying Russian language and literature as well as a now-extinct academic discipline known as Sovietology.
The U.S.S.R.’s final leader, a fatally flawed man named Mikhail Gorbachev, had become an international darling for trying to reform the Communist system. What he didn’t appreciate was that brutality, dysfunction, and lies were actually the glue that kept the country together. By the time I arrived at Vladimir Putin’s alma mater in Leningrad as an exchange student in 1989, the mighty U.S.S.R. was starting to fall apart.
I started working at the Pentagon in summer 1991, on the eve of a failed coup by Soviet hard-liners. Just months later, the Soviet Union disappeared, and America’s relationship with Russia was transformed. The Pentagon was hungry for expertise on the twelve brand-new countries that had replaced the U.S.S.R., and I happened to be in the right place at the right time. At one point, the U.S. secretary of defense made a spur-of-the-moment decision to call his Russian counterpart, just to say hello, using a new secure telephone line. No one had made proper preparations, so I was hustled into his office at the last minute to be the translator. By the time I was thirty. I was going in and out of the Oval Office helping the president and his top advisers deal with their Russian counterparts.
Overconfident American officials kept saying the same thing to our new Russian friends: We were going to be partners, not adversaries. Yet Russia’s leaders quickly found that it had been a lot more fun being America’s enemy than our friend. With their country flat on its back, they resented being told to follow our lead. When the Russians did try to push back, they quickly realized how unequal our two countries’ partnership actually was and that they were antagonizing the very people in the West who were paying billions of dollars to keep Russia from collapsing.
The West’s hopes for Russia to make a successful transition to democracy and free markets turned out to be very unrealistic. Still, if you’d told me back then that a former mid-level KGB officer named Vladimir Putin, then forty-six years old, would be plucked from the back rooms of the Kremlin to run the country, I'd have told you to get your head examined. Yet there I was with President Bill Clinton on the August morning in 1999 when the Russians secretly informed him that Putin was going to be the country’s next president. Even then, no one on Clinton’s team could have imagined that Putin would eventually dominate Russia like a modern-day czar, let alone become one of the world’s most feared leaders.
Western experts like me would make plenty more mistakes in the decades that followed.
Even today, it’s not always easy to understand what drives Putin. A lot of what we think we know about him is the product of pop psychology and misreadings of Russia’s thousand-year-long history. Peeling all of that back is made harder by Putin's toughguy theatrics (prancing around bare-chested on horseback, acting like a villain from a James Bond movie, etc.), which have helped him seem more clever—and capable—than he actually is. As the political scientist Thomas Rid once wisely observed, “The Kremlin’s rulers are particularly adept at gaming elements of this new age, or at the very least are good at getting everyone to talk about how good they are, which could be the most important trick of all.” Putin’s resentment and grievances toward the West have never been far from the surface. Time and again, he’s acted like a post-Soviet version of Oscar the Grouch, lecturing U.S. presidents and accusing them of hypocrisy, do

EU woos outside countries for joint ammo-buying scheme
Yet even if the EU can source €1 billion to help buy new howitzer rounds for Ukraine, it will still be far behind Estonia’s estimate that €4 billion is needed.
By Jacopo Barigazzi
The EU is seeking countries outside the bloc to join its efforts to collectively provide ammunition, with at least Norway already expressing interest, according to one EU official and two diplomats.
The push is part of an EU plan to help provide larger quantities of lower-cost ammunition for Ukraine, while also boosting Europe’s capacity to produce and resupply its own dwindling stocks. Canada could also be included in the scheme, added a second EU official, who, like the other officials and diplomats, spoke on the condition of anonymity.
The first step, as POLITICO first reported this week, is to dedicate at least €1 billion specifically to buy 155mm artillery shells — a much-needed munition in Ukraine’s fight against Russia. In theory, the more participating countries that take part, whether they’re in or out of the EU, the easier it will be to find the money and negotiate bigger contracts.
“It makes a lot of sense,” said Kusti Salm, the permanent secretary for Estonia’s Defense Ministry. “We see that these nations are very eager to support Ukraine and join all these types of initiatives.”
Estonia was key in initiating the joint-procurement plan in recent weeks and has been advocating for it since. “Russia shoots more howitzer rounds per day than Europe as a whole can manufacture in a month,” Salm stressed.
The proposal on the table would have countries place their contributions into a collective fund, known as the European Peace Facility. The EU would then negotiate a joint ammunition contract.
The debate about whether to keep the ammo money within EU borders is an issue with “very polarizing views in Brussels,” said Salm, the Estonian official.
It is “a 100 percent legitimate argument that Europe needs to sustain its own manufacturing,” he added, but “we also need to make sure that there is an element that makes European industry to feel that, if they are incapable of doing this, then the money might go elsewhere.”

6ix, you went through granny's house looking for cash or valuables hidden in the furniture. If you were a basically honest person you wouldn't have even bothered replying to my accusation, let alone making up a long justification that turns you into the hero, not the looter. Russians do the same thing: create fables where they are heroes liberating oppressed people, not invaders looting Ukraine and destroying what they can't steal because buildings are too heavy to transport back to Russia.

lol...
There wasn't any cash. Where do you think I got my money skills from?
My grandma mended socks that had holes in them, because that's what her mother did when she was growing up during the Great Depression, and until she got too sick to do it she clipped coupons from the paper and she and my aunt would go to three different stores to buy groceries. She knew where every penny was.
She took back every one of her kids at one point or another in her life, and I lived there for 5 years myself. If there were any money to steal in the house it would have been stolen by the collective 70 years her kids and I lived in the house as adults.
No. Her money is in the paid for house, the bank account and the insurance policy.
There ain't much between the 3, but her surviving kids are going to get a nice present out of it. Not bad for a lady who didn't work until her mid 40's and retired before 60.
We're a family who can thrive off of almost nothing, and we laugh at any of you making 6 figures and whining that you can't pay for your heat now.
Meanwhile, this is a thread about Russia. Why do you always post about me?
Sorry Second, but no... I will not make out with you.

Why don't we talk about your President* and his party and how they're driving Americans off a cliff?
This is rhetorical, of course. You talk about Russia all day long now because there is nothing good to say about the Democratic Party in 2023.
