My top 10 real Truths....(or what is coming down the pike)
   Advertisements [?]

1.For 3 years I wore a donor star. Now I can't afford to.Just like I now know each package of meat in my freezer and how to get two meals out of each one. Like how I have a registered car in the driveway I can't drive-the engine light is on-that means thar even if I pay the inspection fee-my state uses OBD sensors only-whatever it guesses is wrong I have to correct up to $750 before I get a waiver....so a 96 contour that gets over 25mpg is junk....
Welcome TO liberalism

2.I collect social security disability payments....when I was injured in 1999 they were $1143, and now they are about $1260....but my part B medicare has eaten every raise...inflation-wise I lost money.

3.I complain a lot about the government.When I google me I seem like a dissident. And with their surveillance I'm guessing I'm listed. Why of course you are! 

4.Death and injury SEEMS non-immediate here.But if you ask around you'll find someone who's closely affected.

5.War Crimes never die-95 year old Nazis face charges-do not for a minute think ours will escape.

6.Socialism was never about taking from the rich. It was always about making sure no one can't live because of economic reasons. Guess the school system that is taxpayer funded left out grammer and sentence structure.

7.When all the smoke clears neither democrat is the ideal.

8.Next month the candidate nonsense will be moot-and for most of us irrelevent.

9.The price of oil will rise.

10. A year from now, I will have lost my house.I don't know where I'll be living nor whether there will be heat.Ain't no guarantees but that is my best guess-I'll work my ass off and hope for one more year of delay-
But I'm betting their are many of us on the edge....

12. I appreciate the info...
   Just for fun,my state only tests OBD-any car 95 or older gets a pass....mine runs fine but won't pass...Cash flow...$1107 monthly direct deposit....minus mortgage $540...electric $110....phone and cable $80...insurances $80...that leaves just under $300 a month-before food or heating oil or frivilous shit like anything else....so $120 for oxygen sensors might as well be $3 million for leasing jumbo jets.

Just a second ago it was $1260.00.

17. Good Points....
   I am looking into cheaping out on the phone/cable/internet thing.Mortgage-wise I am OK though I just got a notice for certified mail from the city-that means in about 60 days they will file a lien for taxes which will drive my mortgager rabid.I'm playing on craigslist now for cash and will check on the car thing.And thanks for the suggestions.Oh....in New Hamshire auto insurance is not mandatory,though I have it....

Try living in a state that has a sales tax dufus,wonder if you would be crying about that.

18. In a perverse way....
   ....I am happy with the paper I got....which says "undesireable".This means I pissed them off a ton, but not enough to make a court-martial stick. Really there ain't anything they've got worth enough to make me make nice to them.....

In other words you have been a pain in the ass your entire life,now are a parasite on disability (surprise) and all you contribute to society is being a crybaby.
No shock that you have found your way to DUmmyland either.

What a miserable bunch of whining pukes.
I wish they would just put themselves out of their misery.

May I suggest:

"I wish they would just put themselves out of everyone's misery."

They take Medicare out before the check is deposited, just like health insurance premiums from a pay check. Still, if he wanted to drive the car badly enough he could save a little each month until he had enough to get it fixed. Or he could sell it and use the money to buy a car that was old enough to not have to be tested or a different one that would pass.

Hock your X-Box, buy a gun, and have coyote.  There are many imaginitive ways to enjoy canid in both Oriental and Native American cuisine.  There was also quite a bit of innovative kitchen magic done with this readily-available meat in German and Eastern European cooking about fifty years ago, unfortunately it's doubtful that anyone there wrote it down at the time.

6.Socialism was never about taking from the rich. It was always about making sure no one can't live because of economic reasons.

No, dumbass, it was about control of the people.

7.When all the smoke clears neither democrat is the ideal.

agree with that but you're still an idiot.

8.Next month the candidate nonsense will be moot-and most of us will be irrelevent.
