Most of the population want anything and everything free; because they deserve it. A chance comes along and they grab for the shiney brass ring. If not that, they want free medicine, they want free medical care for themselves, they want a paycheck every week for sitting around and existing, they want gasoline to be cheap, but will scream and holler if oil is pumped from some place thousands of miles away and they will never see it. They want oil company's to lower their prices, but refuse to let them build a new refinery/ They want cheap cars, but want thousands of safety features on them. Our forfathers may have wasted their time and effort. We would have been so much better off under the royaly of England
So funny you mentioned this. It is so true. We run a used auto sales lot. I had a couple come in yesterday. She was apparently doped up.
She wanted a car with very little down, low weekly payments, (for she didn't have a job) , good running, and a gas saver.
Well "who" wouldn't. I bit my tongue carried her out to lot. Showed her two I could do for $600 down. She shook her head... NO... I have to have a radio.
Then she couldn't believe I wouldn't take the same $600 down on a 2004 caddie. Her reactions: "Geeh, I need a car, you have 50, how selfish if you won't let a better one go for $600 with all that you have." My reaction, (in my thoughts) Geeh, why should I get up and come to work each day while you drive around in better car than most working people. I already work so you can eat.
