It's Bush's fault!
That reminds me of the long-ago-departed burdened primitive, the "TylerDurden" primitive.
The burdened primitive was one of these guys one sees walking around the aisles of car-parts stores, clipboard in hand and pencil behind his ear. He'd been doing that for quite a few years; he was then approaching 60 years of age, and lived in Michigan.
Apparently at one time he'd had a good job in the oil-drilling business down in Texas, though.
During the earlier part of this century, he was always blaming Ronald Reagan for his descent from socio-economic status.
As it turned out, the burdened primitive had been laid off from there.....in 1978.
