Grown adults. Still doing it, like an addiction.

I'm wondering HOW all that hidden information will be imparted to everyone. Indications are that it's BIG, so, non stop movies? Can't be books, too many don't read them anymore, and that much knowledge might not fit on a smartphone. Technology where the words are "put" into our heads? That's already available. Very curious.

Yes, that's kind of what I was expecting!

Yeah, I noticed it on election night. Went to TNT to see Cenk have another meltdown like in 2016 (it was very entertaining). Instead they had guests and Ann saying good things about Trump, and Cenk was listing all the ways the democrats had screwed up. Very shocking, not at all the 100% Trump bashing, temper tantrums, and gnashing of teeth I had expected.

That was excellent! If history was taught like this, everyone would be excited to learn.

Is this movie partly sponsored by Coke and McD's? Can't help noticing product placement...

but.. but.. but.. they aren't hooked to the internet, so why should it matter? Only the people we allow access to the machines could use them, and we trust every single person we let sneak in... /s

They're actors. Their job is to say whatever the script calls for, and push emotional buttons in order to manipulate their audience. They haven't been associated with "real news" for many years.

I know someone who taught classes at the phone company. The classes lasted 2-3 weeks. After retiring, he taught the same classes at a local university. They lasted 3 months, because the college could only handle classes that lasted the entire quarter. He had to make up stuff for students to do to stretch out the classes. No wonder so many are bored.

Somebody set me straight. My take is that "earned media" isn't actual money. Maybe hours or minutes that you "earned" because your opponent was given free air time.

The Young Turks. Middle guy is Cenk. Liberal talking head. Watched his meltdown last time Pres Trump won. Wanted to see what he was saying this time and watch the meltdown again. Was surprised, he actually had conservatives on the show telling why they voted for Trump, and he didn't insult them. Even liberals on the show were dissing the democrats. A lot of the show was actually good, though there were a few brain dead libs who obviously believed every thing they saw on TV. Had to turn it off when one of the brain dead libs started talking.

The clip was spliced together, but is accurate. There were cameras pointed at each person who got the envelopes, so it was set up ahead of time to capture their reactions.

So shocked this person in the video has never heard of the envelopes.

No, SSI is different. Alabama used to have 3 different Extra help options, but looks like only the QI-1 is available this year due to funding issues. Search for Medicare Savings Programs or Extra Help (here is a pdf from ssa.gov - but your state needs to have enough money to fund the program. Search for "your state" Extra Help, and maybe it will show up.

At 8:26 to the end, you get an AUS pro Trump guy speaking, from their point of view. I hope the world comes to this understanding, and the good guys of the world are already there.

Check your state for "disability extra help", you might qualify for additional benefits. Our state had 3 levels of "extra help". When I applied for my son, he "qualified" for only a small amount based on the descriptions. When they reviewed the application, he was approved for a different level, a much larger amount, because their interpretation of the qualification was different from mine.

I'm going to recommend listening to The Young Turks. Yeah, right. There are some conservatives being allowed to explain our side, and it's been good for the 1st hour or two. There are people trying to find common ground.
