Do NOT complain about a problem if you're doing NOTHING to solve it!

IMO, Bush allowed Congress to set this up, but not standing up to Congress and forcing them to address the mortgage issue before it melted down.
We have nobody to blame but ourselves on this one. We didn’t stand up to the Left, and it happened on our watch.
We also had a majority in Congress for a period of time there too. We have no excuse here. We were a part of the problem.
of course they do... they’ve been taught that since kindergarten.
Pictures!

That works fine until whomever ends up as dictator takes control.
Then you will work or starve - or somehow become a controlled and poorly paid stooge of the government. No more sitting around coffee shops, bars, or faculty lounges endlessly gabbing about "unfairness" and solving "social problems".
If you resist you will go to the gulags. There you will be forced to work until you die of exhaustion, sickness, old age, or mistreatment. If you are "lucky" you might get out in 15 years or so as an outcast with no job or prospects of one, no ration card, no travel papers, and not even a shared room in a multi-family apartment. You won't even have anough money for a loaf of bread much less a Skinny Latte.
You can also forget iPhones, vacations, money of your own, a car, days off, a nice place to live, personal freedom, kayaking and biking,... - unless you are a member of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat oppressing everybody else. But if you screw that up or get on the wrong side of the endless political backstabbings and power plays, you get a bullet in the back of the head (if you are lucky) or a trip to the gulag.
In other words,... have a nice life as a "socialist". You'll make Bernie (or Hillary) proud!
Have they found out yet that Bernie didn’t win pea turkey d@mn in NH? Did any one inform them that Bernie and Hillary left NH in a 15-15 delegate tie? Someone needs to teach them about........Super Delegates.
Yep, that’s me. Almost 30, no romantic life and no prospects for one. I’m WAY too deep in debt to even start considering it right now.
Back when Bjorn Borg was in his fourth or fifth year as the world's number one tennis seed, putting away trophy after trophy and winning huge purses, it got out that he was paying Swedish taxes at a rate around 86%. Lots of other athletic talents were bailing on Europe and coming to the States, but Borg stuck it out. I wonder what he is doing now, and whether he's on state assistance yet.
Take a whip, a chair, and a gun.
Be aware of the Rule of 39-1/2. I got this from Jay Leno's 90's autobiography and said, "yeah, right" -- but Stanford checked it out (no doubt trying to q.c. Leno and tweak him a bit), and they found out it was true.
No wonder -- Leno got it from bartenders he used to talk to while waiting to go on with his second act in all those Boston-area clubs, back in the 70's before he hit it big, and -- voila ! -- the barmen were accessing 900 years of barkeep wisdom, which is no mean thing. As the Stanford Ph.D.'s found out.
Women have radar. They can tell within six months, how old you are, esp. when you get close to 40. The magic age is 39-1/2. Mind you, we're specifying men who can bench the same weight they did when 35, keep the same weight and waistline, good shape, body "conformable", and all that. They also have good jobs and decent looks and, at 35, rated, say, an "8" as man-meat and marriage prospect, okay?
Age 39-1/2 arrives, and THUD! They instantly go from "8" to "4", or from "6" to "3". Their score gets cut in half, just like that. Mind you, this is Stanford doing a double-blind, controlled sociology study. And they came up with exactly what the barkeepers told Leno.
Keep it in mind. You gotta bust your move on your 37th b/d, come hell or high water, or you don't make the cut.
Word.
So true!
Why can't textbooks remain the SAME for decades?
Nothing has changed except current events!
Wait a ding-dang minute here!
THIS money is in a LockBox!!!
Do NOT complain about a problem if you're doing NOTHING to solve it!
They are spoiled brats. They will run this place into the ground if allowed.
Lessee...
Barry ran in ‘64 and you were 5 years too young to vote.
Right to Vote at Age 18
Passed by Congress March 23, 1971. Ratified July 1, 1971. The 26th Amendment changed a portion of the 14th Amendment
So you were 16 YO in 64; right?
Making you 67 now.
Did you EXPERIENCE this 39.5 phenom yourself?
AU H2O.
