    Full disclosure of your own spending habits should be a mandatory part of that process.

    There are two main contributing factors to your financial situation. How much you make, and how much you spend. Like it or not, it is pertinent if someone pisses their money up the wall unnecessarily, and dishonest to fixate on one to the exclusion of the other.

    You don’t want social safety nets, but you do think the working middle class should subsidize corporate payroll.

    Guess what subsidizing corporate payroll is called? Yep, social safety nets.

    Fucking moron, they require you to give them access to your bank account and spending info so they can confirm you so they can confirm you need the money. If you are getting a paycheck they monitor your income through social security. They lower and cancel your benefits if you are getting a paycheck and if your bank accounts get too much money in them throughout the year.

    Yes, it is mandatory and you do not get any welfare or SS disability if you get too much income.

    Once again UA is a fucking liar.

    Again, they monitor things like this. People get busted and lose benefits from taking cash out of their EBT cards too close to casinos because they fucking monitor your shit like that.

    There is no such thing as food stamps and checks anymore. You get an electronic bank card where every transaction is monitored and SNAP benefits (Old food stamps) do not even get you cash anymore. SNAP benefits will not let you buy anything that is not edible, and the supermarket will not return benefits in cash. They monitor what you spend TANF for.

    They do everything you are claiming right now. They have regulated the system so much better than your 80's level bullshit. Educate yourself you simpleton.

    "On point."

    I'm not sure that people still say "on fleek." I think it was a fairly brief mid-2010s thing.

    I know nothing of it, I say all of the above, and I say it is most likely not my cup of tea unless really well written. The whole facial hair thing tends to put certain humor into a place that traumatizes me, so I generally hate the fuck out of things like that. Just a trans point of view.

    Ah, now THERE'S capitalism at work! Relevant to other threads.

    Have enough cash and you can lobby the government into changing the law so you can make even MORE! Whilst fucking over your workers. Who can't sue you because you got to change the law!

    Better warn @Jenee that @Uncle Albert is going to be extra after reading that. We would not want her to choke to death on his mosquioto dick.

    I earn enough I could stay at Hilton if I wanted and needed a hotel, but I'd rather just use a Days or similar. One thing I've learned about the US is that what your "luxury" hotels consider luxury is "lots of tacky shit in the room".

    But at least they’re clean. I am leary of hotel rooms that are like $25/night. Who was killed in that room and how much blood is still in the carpet?

    The classier the hotel, the more likely it is someone died in that room. They just have better detergent.
