Communists claimed 100% employment that way.
LMAO!
Allow me, Sir (or Madame, as the case may be), the honour of disabusing you of any notion that The Won does not want this country, and all of Western Civilization, brought to its knees.
He, and the barbarians on the other end of his BlackBerry, want to see most of us dead, the rest in chains.
You have to remember that Charles is a stocks guy. He runs an investment business, and the stock market has been doing well. However, as a smart guy, he should know that the party is being paid for with printed money and can’t last.
We certainly feel the pinch. I don’t care what they say, the cost of everything, particularly food, is rising rapidly.
He does. But did you catch the snippet in the debates where he took credit for it just the same?
I hope you mean paying with something other than a government issued EBT card.
I've noticed lately that most of us buying just what we need are using cash or privately issued debit or credit cards, where as those buying carts full of stuff the rest of us can't afford are using government issued EBT cards.
One was so self-conscious the other day at Wal-Mart that she didn't even wanting me putting my stuff on the belt until she'd checked out. She even had her mousy husband, boyfriend or whatever stand between us so I couldn't.
“More and more people are buying only what they need to live and not what they want to make life more pleasurable.”
That’s right; in my area a local bowling alley is giving away free games just so they can make money on shoe rentals and hopefully some food/drinks.
“I believe a lot of Americans are clueless because they see people in grocery stores with carts full.”
Our new(ish) Wal-Mart is shutting down other supermarkets anyway; it has become the company store where the miners can run up tabs to feed their families.
NJ is in really bad shape, with no light on the horizon.
“One was so self-conscious the other day at Wal-Mart that she didn’t even wanting me putting my stuff on the belt until she’d checked out. She even had her mousy husband, boyfriend or whatever stand between us so I couldn’t.”
Probably the “baby-daddy”; the term covers all races & creeds.
Everyone except me had paid with some type of govt card.
She even made the comment about how she couldn’t afford to buy what they were getting for free.
This was at a Wal-Mart too, and the checker told me to look at all the full carts. She said when the carts are full of groceries, the govt is paying.
She said when people are paying for their own groceries the carts aren’t full and it’s only what they need.
A lot of people fault Wal-Mart, but letting people run up a tab so they can buy food they can’t be all bad.
The worst part is in 2008 when the economy crashed people still had savings to fall back on.
Now they don’t.
“A lot of people fault Wal-Mart, but letting people run up a tab so they can buy food they can’t be all bad.”
That was just a reference to credit cards (whereas the old company store, where you had to buy your goods, would keep track of a tab).
Not only are the savings gone, but retirement funds are gone, debt has been maxed out, and they’re still not keeping up.
Terrifying.
