Back when 1 member of the family could afford to pay for everything because houses were less than 50k. Now boomers have at least 3 houses and hoard them and turn that 50k house into 600k. Not keeping up with wages at all. So yeah. Has nothing to do with job.
That's is why I wrote "lucky" some will come out alive, some won't. But you have better chances when you are the elite.
And here I thought you didn't have the need to explain yourself to me.
Is it stupidity or lack of medical care? I mean most nations are doing ok considering their numbers. Seems to be the lack of medical support in the "great" USA that more people are dying.
Well it's likely both, but the stupidity of the poor, particularly black Americans, are certainly exacerbating their own problems. I mean if you can't afford medical care, (and who can these days), then you should avoid risky behaviors.
Not everything. But a lot of the stuff on the news has been a way to manipulate the way you think and you have believed it a lot longer than the internet has been around to fact check that. I can tell you right now most news outlets sway a certain agenda or put out false info for higher ratings. That is a proven fact.
That's been going on for decades, likely much longer.My father, (a Republican), used to get Time magazine. The first "time" (pun not intended, got got a hold of a copy of "Newsweek", I couldn't believe the polar opposite spin on the same news.
The internet is also loaded with memes, and "fake news", as much or more than mainstream media. For instance, "26 senators and congressmen have dual citizenship with Israel" Hell, Nancy Pelosi is a "good Catholic girl", certainly not a Jewish undercover operative.
Maybe you should say not all oldies are the same, in the same sense you think all young people are the same. Maybe have some perspective. I know some old people can drive. I have a 92 year old grandpa still driving fine today. Doesn't take away from the fact that I still see more oldies causing accidents than I do young people on their phones.
You're an insurance adjuster then? It's certainly convenient to be able to quote things "you've seen", and imagine them to be fact. In fact, I think accident investigators have begun to pull phone records to find out if a cellphone was involved in an accident. But don't worry, your insurance company, Tesla, and every other car manufacturer is now your permanent "back seat driver".
Seen better bait from 12 year olds.
But yet you bit down hard on the hook, didn't you?
Depends really, should be more days off. Also you can take a bit of every regime and it will be either good or bad, this whole political crap about a certain political system being all bad is nuts. Basically a religion following (which is also nuts in my opinion) to blindly follow it all to the letter and not critise certain points of that system which is immoral to not do so.
For once we almost agree on something. IMO, "The Holy Roman Catholic Church", is the biggest hoax ever perpetrated on mankind, and then inflicted on the rest of the world. Maybe Jesus wasn't really dead, he might have been unconscious.
Nope. Just the ones who cannot realise times have changed a lot since their heyday and will continue to change a lot more rapidly each decade as technology advances. So their outdated opinions need to be corrected. Or you know, just leave it to who's lives will actually be effected in the next 10 years.
No, I think we're destroying the planet for our young by having too many more of them. You young 'uns seem to think Elon Musk has a solution for all our problems, population be damned.[/quote] Is that all you've got? To spout a bunch of self righteous crap about how being young means you know it all?
Yep another oldie thing to say. Live your life, pay all your debts before the age of 50 (because everything was inexpensive then) and then be retired and a bore on the system for a further 40 years at the same time telling how easy the "young" have it when really they don't compare to your life, your generation had it the easiest. Everything cheap, easier to find work, can actually retire before 60.
Obviously this doesn't describe every old person, but it seems you don't have to tell this to them as they aren't the ones complaining about other people. Just the ones that have already juiced the system as much as they could and now expect younger people to have a much worse experience than they did because "who cares, it isn't me and I'll be dead soon."
You young folk are digging your own graves. Us "oldies " just like to watch.
Now why don't you run along and use your literary skills to join in the latest "Intel bad, AMD good" threads. Or maybe login to a new phone offering thread.
The best thing I can say for a large percentage of this generation, is that they've "evolved" from "monkey see, monkey do", to "monkey see, monkey want".
