My Rants are short so don't worry.
The Govt. should have left -well enough- alone! The market TANKED after they passed the stupid bailout and now it looks like it will kill things globally. Stupid Stupid Rat Creatures!!! Nothing like having me, Hunter and my grand kids to pay for this Socialist toilet paper. Congrdumalations!
There - done. Not bad huh?
Beside that little rant Life is Great! I'm lovin' it! Heather and I are approved for a loan but we just need to find a house. I plan on looking though Bank owned properties. Cheers!

My Beef With Sayings
Here's a whopper! "The Rich get Richer and the Poor Get Poorer" I had a lady make that statement to me, and I know it's common and considered quite adapt but what do you say to that? The only thing you CAN do is say "yup, you're right..." Otherwise you sound heartless. "Naw, people just need to get off their lazy butt..."
Has the Poor really gotten poorer? (I known my English has) Average earnings increase, what were once luxuries are common place and cheep. Average living is always getting better! WELL.... what about Inflation?!? Everything costs more don't it?!? Yes, but goods respectively still stay cheep or get cheaper. At worst a family breaks even like the family of the past, but that "even" line is higher than it used to be, and tends to rise as availability of things rise as well.
What is the saying supposed to do to you anyway? Tick you off. If you are getting richer are you rich? I'm getting richer. Even if I stay an employee for ages and "work up the cooperate ladder" I'm getting richer does that make me Rich? What about Ed McMahon loosing his home, is he Poor? More evidently it used to say "Those selfish rich B*$&!*ds! They always bilk the little guy and leave 'em in the dust. They never lift their fellow man!" etc. Or it says "Life Sucks for everyone. (but the few"
I'm not a victim of the system. It is what it is. Learn the Rules and play by the set that gets you where you want to be! The Rich do get Richer by knowing how to innovate, create, and build. They often improve the lives of their fellow man by doing so. The poor get poorer only if they lack vision, ambition, and drive. Any person can make their life better if they try. Even those with terrible hands dealt to them become strong and overcome as they rise to meet the challenge.
The Rich get richer and the Poor get poorer only if they want it to be that way.It's a cool saying but it just hit me that - it doesn't really fit in my life.
