I do? Oh, you mean like last year? :1 Yeah, when my girlfriends bills combined with my bills I kinda freaked out a bit, but who wouldn't? I can find posts(even recent ones)where you talk about the SAME EXACT things I was talking about a year ago so don't act like I was handling it any worse than you were/are. It's late and I'm only up because redbull has me twitching in bed so I'm not going to search and post links, but if you want to deny it I'll be glad to look some up tomorrow and post the links.
I think you missed my point when you decided to take a cheap shot at me.
I was talking about the BIG picture, like the entire economy, the country, the world. Not personal bills. Personal bills aren't even on the same level.

It wasn't a cheap shot, I was trying to put your perspective into perspective, so to speak. Also, I'm not sure where you've seen me stress about money... as we've hashed out in the dead past I'm not like you and you aren't like me in respect to how we roll with our finances. If I misinterpeted where you were coming from with your post hmm I think you misinterpreted me as well, bro.
My perspective is we have machinery, factories, knowledge, and a trained workforce. If the looters have stolen what we've earned, well, *they have not stolen and can not steal the means by which we earn*. The matter at hand is one of eradicating the ones stealing from us, not our inability to earn. Sure things will be rocky for a minute, but the whole world's going to be affected by it and all that happens is jobs/manufacturing come back to America. It's going to be okay.
Despite what the luddite hippies think we can't just turn back the hands of time and live in huts with thatched roofs - our technology has changed us to the point that, stripped of it, we quickly become sick and die. But, that's another topic.

I approached it gently.
When you didn't take it the right way I backed off, you continued the point.
I just stated I didn't want to talk about it since it's obviously a bad subject for you and can't ever be so much as hinted at in a friendly manner. I got the message, and just said so.
Really, you drop it.

Keep taking jabs at me and then act like you're NOT trying to start ---- afterwards. I just hope when I'm your age I don't spend my ENTIRE day online trying to make a name for myself to complete strangers.
