Well, it just goes to show you, just because someone is Conservative doesn't mean they can't be a jerk.
LOL. This idiot at the NY Times is just discovering this problem now? How stupid are these people?
Found three grammatical errors on your brief home page in a matter of seconds. SkyPilot didn't make the poster. You did create the home page.
Never accept financial advice from someone who confuses youre with “your.”
I have suspected all along that your obsessive compulsive focus on a third parties use of a contraction and a possessive adjective were throwaway complaints to a much much bigger nerve that was touched.
I am right about the fallacy of shoveling piles of your hard earned cash into "investments" these days.
They are taking your money, and laughing. T-bills are even worse. It will take some painful reckoning, but people will eventually catch on.
Seven Reasons Not to Invest in the Stock Market in 2010
Earnings are way down, and stock have not been this unprofitable in 80 years. Our national debt is a logarithmic chart that looks like the Richter scale.
Expand this chart to $13 Trillion (not 9 Trillion as shown from just a few short years ago), and you get the idea.
And yet, despite all of this evidence of gathering storm clouds, I know of people who hold onto their investments like a meth smoker who just found his lost pipe.
“For example, local businesses were handing out 8-10% raises one year and we got 3%-5.”
You worked in government far to long if you think any business, other than government “hands out” raises and that somehow you were deprived.
I am sorry you are having financial difficulties - but many people work very hard and do not have a pension, yet must pay taxes that are about to get a lot higher to pay the municipal pension that you receive.
Taxpayers will not pay taxes for pensions in return for no, or severely degraded municipal services.
Good luck.
“Now, because of the crap that is happening Im supposed to feel guilty because the whiners didnt plan as well as I did 30 years ago?”
No, but your check may well eventually be a lot smaller than you and your “plan” figured.
“Screw all you aholes!!!”
You should be nicer to the folks that will decide whether you will get to enjoy the largess of the taxpayer in the future.
I have to ask you this: what is troubling you so much? What did I do to make you so upset with me? It can't be because of a picture where "you're and "your" were misused - and a picture that I didn't even make! Were you angry before?
I will admit, I was not in the best of moods when I posted some of my replies. So, I hope you forgive me about that.
If there is something you need to talk or pray about, let me know in a private reply, and I will keep that confidential. I will also pray to Christ for both of us.
I am sorry if I was a jerk myself at any time during this thread. The Lord knows I can be one.
Night.
Down with the kulak ants! Long live the Grasshopper Revolution!
The ants cannot withstand the righteous indignation of the grasshopper people!
