I have and am getting to it. I also put myself through college, and have been in business for myself for ten years. My success is mounting and you've got a very firm Conservitive in your grandchildren's corner. My only real regret was being unable to join the Armed Services.
I admit I painted my picture with broad strokes, but to get ahead in business these days is far more difficult now than it was for the Boomer Generation. One could certainly argue that there are more opportunities for we Xer's, but the cost of doing business due to the nanny state is much greater. I blame the Boomers for letting this happen, and more specifically the liberal hippie Boomers.
Thus, if he fails, he has LOTS of excuses... HAHAHAHAhaahaha.....
The hippies didn't vote for a nanny state, they didn't vote at all. The creators of the nanny state are the left-over FDR Democrats like LBJ and the rest of those lunkheads who thought they could micro-manage a war in Asia from Washington and keep it off center stage in the process. 50,000 good but dead American boys was the cost of that miscalculation
Your anger is justified but your target is wrong. FDR and his evil offspring LBJ and the rest of the New Deal, New Frontier democrats are the problem. A few are still around and when they're not drowning interns or swilling Dewar's they are still voting to screw us.
