Economy’s great!
Especially if you’re one of the 90-100 million on welfare!
WOO HOO HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN!
Gonna go play some X-Box and roll me a big joint, bro, WOOOOOOO!!
Thank God for political myths and schmit!
I can see how the availability of porn might sell a lot of the hardware and software necessary to see it, but the porn producers themselves don’t get any of that passed on to them. So how do THEY make money?
Homelessness is everywhere. Beggars are everywhere. That says more than all the statistics.
People don’t analyze how they are doing, financially or otherwise. The live it every waking (and perhaps every dreaming) hour of every day. They know it. They feel it.
They experience it when the money runs out before the end of the month. They watch it either live or on TV when people are burning down their own neighborhood or shoving at policemen. They feel the weight of another tax or regulation breaking their backs. They chafe at the restrictions of ridiculous PC prohibitions where an innocent word or gesture will brand you as a bigot or worse.
For us lucky few, things are going pretty good. For the masses that decide elections it’s not so good....no matter how hard you try to say the state of the economy and, in general, of the nation are great. They are not so good.
We need to take back our country, our heritages, our lives and sanity from the PCers and the One-Worlders.
Great question. Business Insider says
Contrary to public perception, free porn may be more widely available, but it forms a small part of the entire gamut of products the industry offers and the audience it caters to. Look beyond the 'free', and you'll see 'premium content'. These include HD videos, no ad/pop-up promises, unlimited downloads, online Live Cam streaming, and so on. Paid users can ask the website to deliver content to their email, or physical addresses. While you may never know, many do sign up for it as they like the convenience...
How Big Is Porn? (Forbes)
Naked capitalism (The Economist)
Lol
Food
Electricity/water
College
Medical insurance
Housing
All of these costs are going up far faster than the price of inflation.
That would make a good bumper sticker but there's a lot of homework that needs being taken care of before money gets involved. This is what we were talking about above w/ the difference between politics and business decisions. People are perfectly free to vote on whatever whim suits 'em at the moment because they'll always still be allowed to vote all over again next election. When it comes to business anyone who sinks his capital on a whim will most probably not have any capital the next time.
I remember Abe saying this o the radio when I was a lad! I think it was a PSA after a broadcast of “The Shadow Know/s”.
