They weren't hypothetical people. Every example I've given I've come to learn from people doing such. If not from outright knowing individuals engaging in these practices who were known to me personally, to having owned a hair salon for ten years having people telling me of their situations, or having heard the people telling me of their relatives situations. Giving examples was easier than saying from each instance of how I come to know of the situations, like one of my ex-boyfriends from years ago had a sister who was slow, mentally off a bit, and met a man one of the same, came to live together, both living off SSI because they were incapable of performing the functions of a job. Really Ralph, your claim of working for supper, under a dictatorial tyrannical regime, both a Thiel and Musk dream, working for your supper will be one and the same considered, a derived benefit that must be claimed. You got something of value in exchange for your work. It currently even is considered as such, as I tried to explain the different examples, if someone living with someone who collects SSI and that person is not reporting that they are living with someone else, they get the full SSI. Now, if the person does make note they are living with someone but paying a said amount of rent and contributions toward bills and groceries, depending upon what those expenses amount to, it may or may not affect their SSI income, on the other hand if that person notes that they are living with another person while collecting SSI but are not being charged anything for living with them, their SSI is reduced by what they call a derived value contributed to them. You, in at todays standards compared to tax laws, not SSI, have to furnish the value of those dinners to the IRS, it's called bartering, and as long as that bartering is below $600 a year, your okay, once it goes over $600 a year, you are required to report it. I know. As a landlord if I pay someone under $600 a year to do work for me, I can deduct that on my taxes without having to furnish the IRS with their name and social security number, once I pay that same individual over $600, I have to furnish the IRS their name and social security number. If I barter that work into 365 chicken dinners, and 200 breakfast, I am way over the $600 mark just by adding a value of $5 each onto the chicken dinners. I would have to get your name and social security number and report it. Now, if I was way under that amount but you made half that six hundred off my dinners and half that off any number of dinners, you would have to report it because it's on you to report any earning in a year over $600. You know Ralph, it's usually the ones accusing others of what it is they are doing themselves. Not that I am saying I agree with how they sat things up, it's just I am not going to jail over chicken dinners. Now that would be considered totally asinine, and I'd probably never live it down once my face was splashed across every website in the country trying to do a chicken run around the tax codes. I can just see the headlines now on a slow news day as each website grabs onto that bit of un-news-unworthiness.

Far as your other claims, the Gateway Pundit, like they are a reliable source of news when it's all one sided. Actually, if this conversation happened over there, you could just tell the mods I wasn't being a team player and have me banned. I know that also, because that's exactly what happened to me over there proving things they were saying concerning Trump weren't exactly being played out as written, there was other points they weren't acknowledging or totally ignoring. Some guy over there used a expletives at me, and I bested his comment back without using any foul language, he got mad and reported my comment. I emailed them and asked them why he was allowed to use language like that but I get banned, they said I was banned for not being a team player. So they run the narratives fed to them. What a lot of this "deleting" funding by Musk concerning ESG, DEI, and other assorted woke-nest, is actually the billionaires who got the funding through the government to run this scam up against people, now they've won, they are pulling out the funding. There's no need to fund it anymore, as Alex Jones has even admitted, they've done beaten you, I am sure I've shared that bit of betrayal to you, fully acknowledged we've all been played, if not let me know, I'll share with you, it's so mockingly impressive, I can't share that "I've told you so" enough. But go ahead and keep dreaming they're benefitting anyone from all these deletions when in fact they are burying evidence. Playing everyone like the dogs they really think we all are. Don't think this is going to come out as being the commander of your own personal little village like you think, you'll be on hunger overload unable to feed them all, eventually hunger will overcome those sexual fantasies and bragging rights you so desire, and all those women will become more worried about feeding their kids instead of if they get chosen for another night with you.
