24. I get pissed, too. I'm just so *******ed tired of

being kicked around by big corporations, the government, other people. After a while you just want to vent, and you come here hoping you've found a safe haven, only to be reminded that people are rude and obnoxious here, too.

Yesterday I received a 28 page Census Bureau survey in the mail demanding answers to all sorts of personal questions about my health, finances, home, job...including such beauties as whether or not I bathe myself. I kid you not. If you haven't received one of these yet, you will eventually. The feds hope to have the US covered by 2010. Anyhow, I was outraged at this bullshit attempt to invade my privacy, and posted here asking if others had received the thing and how they had handled it.
Some DUer who apparently works for the Census Bureau took it personally and called me an idiot - for being pissed at the government's attempt to follow me into my bathroom.

What this country desperately needs is for people to get pissed and start making noise - loud and long. There's strength in numbers and we could accomplish a lot if we'd unite. Unfortunately, most people are so cowed and afraid of making waves that the crap we get handed only gets piled on higher and higher while we struggle not to be crushed under its weight.

21. YES! Never pass up the opportunity to remind them WHO is to blame.
   
I think we should start an action.
Random fliers in public places educating the public
as to why they are struggling to pay for food and gas.

12. We ain't seen nothing yet
   

It sucks. My fixer upper house is in shambles because we can't afford the price of materials...

We need a revolution. It will only come when the depression hits full on....

Sometime in late January of next year.

14. Could be worse...
   
You could live in the UK, my friend. Petrol is over £1 a litre. Coke costs more. Pay raises are below inflation (in real terms). We have an inept gov't. Oh, and we're still suffering from post-imperial malaise.

On the plus side, we have the highest obesity, childhood asthma and teenage pregnancy rates in the whole of Europe.

Just wait until your precious hussein or mrs. clinton get in and tax what little of your check is left AND taxes business which will raise prices further.

The inability of the primitivees to understand the first thing about our economic system never ceases to amaze me.

We went to college to better ourselves but we are being nickeled and dimed to DEATH

as well as milk, bread, eggs and EVERY frikin thing else

Someone correct me if I am wrong but I believe this person who plagerizes her fellow primitives is a school teacher.
Regardless let me explain how it works.

If you get a raise in the private sector that extra cost has to be raised through an increase in the price of the services you are providing as the business resells them.

If you get a raise in the public sector it comes from taxes extracted from the private sector who then ask for raises to offset the additional tax burden...at that point see the first example.

It is very simple really and if one is working for a business that can`t raise the price of the services or goods provided then they go out of business because they can`t meet their financial obligations.
If the only way they can continue is to not give raises then the employee must seek to do what is required to better their employment status.

Really,it is very simple.

was there a security guy standing there with a gun to force you to fill it out? SHEESH! I get surveys from the GOP all the time, I throw them out.


get a grip you nut job. if you dont want to fill it out, then dont.


there is no 'demanding' that the public do so... its just to help them know who needs more cheetos and money and stuff. but you go ahead and protest it all.

youre so tough. 

[Lauri]

$4 for milk?
Doesn't that moonbat live in Kansas?  Maybe 4 bucks in Boston or some other liberal hellhole, not in Kansas.

We get 2 gallons of milk for about $3.50 here.

we get our milk delivered from a local place... yes, even in Seattle  and my monthly bill there runs about 60 a month.

we typically get 3 half gallons a week, 1 pd. of butter, a block of sharp cheese and cottage cheese.

i dont look at the prices of milk in the store, but i will next time i'm there... just to compare.

Drink beer, it is cheaper.

ps: Just checked Albertsons.com (Southern California) and milk is $4.99 a gallon.  That makes beer an ever better buy.

Thank the Goreacle and the Democrat congress for making fuel out of food.  Expect food to only get more expensive.  Funny to not that with the high price of corn even at $100/barrel and government subsidizes ethanol is not profitable.

16.  I got angry at the super market
   
And I was removed by security for upsetting customers . No one gives a damn about my of anyones anger we are in this alone .
all I saw were people accepting things as they are . I scream at gas stations but have yet to get a chorus going .

I really have to question how many people are even willing to voice their anger or frustration , they just go along with it all .

What a sad sorry country we live in .

 Screaming at inanimate objects? 

If the DUmb**** in question said that those inanimate objects screamed back . . . 

[NHSparky]

Hmmmm...I pay $1.89 for a half gallon (full gallons are $3.19 IIRC), $2.50 for a loaf of bread (I get the good stuff), and 89 cents for a half-dozen eggs.

Produce IS a bit more expensive up here than when I was living in CA, but such is life when you live 3000 miles away from the fields in which those products were grown.

I wonder what the primitives would do when I tell them live lobsters are $5.99 a pound?  Hell, even ribeye steak ain't that cheap.

Oh, and my average grocery bill for a month (just me) runs less than $200 a month, cleaning stuff not included.  Guess I'm doing something wrong in not buying more expensive shit--oh wait, I do.

I'm going to guess that in it's mind, they do.

Ahhh but you don't have the *cough* refined tastes of the DUmmie Elite!  Those who feel that caviar should be provided by welfare because it is a necessity!  You can use your Free Google voice mail to order it.

That post was the prize in the thread, but my favorite part is just before the gas pump screaming, where the freak gets removed from the supermarket by security for acting like the true nutter he or she undoubtedly is.

We all have them...the letter of the month/week to the newspaper screeching all the talking points while looking foolish as they try to make them their own words.
