This was the real foundation of the current "economic crisis" Strange that the rest of the world, much more liberal in comparison to us, is going through the same thing if not worse. But I do recognize the fact that all politicians suck. Tis the nature of the beast.
Here is a good one for you:
Sally came home from college for the first time. Her dad hugged her and asked her how school was going.
"Great dad, I made the Dean's list with a 3.5 GPA!!!!"
He congratulated her and asker her how her best friend from high school, Tabitha, was doing.
"Not so good dad, she only has a 2.5 and is barely hanging on, she skips class, sleeps in, goes out to parties every night, already had one abortion"
Her dad has a wonderful idea:
"Honey, go to the Dean, ask him to take your 3.5 and her 2.5 and just split it down the middle, a 3.0 for each of you, and as far as the total amount of work that was done, it will all work out in the end to be the same."
Sally responded vehemently "HELL NO!!! I WORKED MY *** OFF FOR THAT 3.5"
Her dad smiled and offered his hand "Welcome to the Republican Party".
So, after you read this on the internet that you pay 39 bucks a month for, and then hop in your sweet VX and go to work, contemplate giving these things up, after all, there are a bunch of lazy POS democrat supporters that need your money to fund their laziness. Maybe you can sell the VX and buy several bicycles, then you can help out those who don't have as much as you. But wait, you worked hard to get the things you have, why should you be the one to give them up to those who don't deserve them?
