Thanks, and your math makes sense, but I think this is a misinterpretation by op. It’s fair to say that as a percentage of expenditure… But not tax dollars.
Social security gets complicated because it’s set up as a trust fund and has investments that grow to support disbursement rates. It also means that the expenditures should be carved out, same as the inbound tax. This should shift the calculations meaningfully.
But Massachusetts has snowy winters and icy conditions which means they need to salt the roads. This is not something that they have to contend with in check notes Sweden?
Is there a summary here? I thought they had a reputable brand and must’ve missed when it turned to shit/why it turned to shit. Have seen several dragging them recently.
Yeah I had the same observation recently, especially when I got that popup and then couldn’t find anything relevant to what I was looking for. It’s just a random tech blog now.
