Two problems, one solution. Let ‘em kill each other, then hang the survivors.

I went to an unemployment office once - back in 1988. I had been working full time and paying the guvmint fee for the last 14 years. I walked in, looked around and said “I’m better than this” and walked out. Found an entry level job in a new field and worked my way up. Eventually became self employed. Screw anyone that can’t make it in the USA.

Excellent, I’m 110% in favor!

Let’s draft her for president.

Wonder if it’s still that way?

Yup. These people have no self control or sense of propriety. I wouldn't mind the meat and such, but they'll be washing it down with a case of ho-hos and name-brand soft drinks. The author of this definitely has it dead on. If you want anything but rice and beans, get a job.

I mind the good meat.

My family hasn’t bought first class steaks in months , except a few 6 oz steaks at restaurants and cheaper cuts around the house. When my kids were younger and at home we used to have a steak night every other week or so, big sirloins usually then grill them. Have enough for breakfast the next day. Like 12 or 16 oz steaks.

those days are gone for me I guess (yes..I could still do it but spend less on something else)

Kinda different for me growing up I guess. My folks owned a smallish grocery store, with a butcher dept, so we always had plenty of meat and stuff. Sometimes we didn’t know exactly what the veggies and stuff was going to be until we opened the randomly chosen can without a label.

Too rational! Actually there’s some relation to human motivation, the reason would never be applied.
