I am about as far left-of-center as it is possible to be and still tolerate living in the Orange Toad's America. Given that its present squatting in the Oval Office is only a temporary condition is what makes it tolerable.
 
There is absolutely nothing wrong as an absolute statement with:
 
From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.
 
Excellent example: Warren Buffet.
 
On an annual basis, my wife and I pay *IN TAXES* approximately 3X the poverty-line income of a family of four.
 
On school/property taxes: It will be 2042 before we pay back our township for the kids k-12 education. One is a senior partner at a top-5 international law firm (youngest in their history), the other the chief paralegal in her firm.
 
Neither of my parents spoke English as a first language.
 
I own several guns. Licensed and insured. And, I am very, very good (for a civilian) with them.
 
My neighborhood is quite mixed, with (at least) 4 major religions well-represented, about every ethnicity and mix thereof. It is a very old (oldest house is 1649) area just outside the Philadelphia City Limits.
 
About, for a fact, the only truly lazy people I know are the trailer-trash (no other word for them) and meth-burners living outside Berwick, PA en-route to our summer house. Complete with Trump signs in their yards. A goodly number of whom are, as it happens, on welfare.
 
You might want to educate your poor, probably stupid, ignorant self on the reality of life in these United States:

One cannot fix stupid, but ignorance is curable.

The "40 years" you "funded Medicare" did not even pay for you, idiot.
 
So that money is long gone. Nothing for a retarded putz like you to
claim is getting spent elsewhere.
 
So I guess that makes you "LamahFuckUS". Because you seem to think
that ANY of what you paid in is even still there.
 
Yep... Yer a DEVice, with a NUL difference. Ya got that one right.

Another retarded, lame fuck sub 100 IQ crack.
 
That way you talk, I funded you for the 45 years I worked and paid
in, you stupid putz.

No, that is the RETARD tea party or misled southern white retard
republican horseshit they feed into each other down at the sports
bar.
 
Don't see any democrats out spreading this kind of retarded
divisive horseshit. Sadly half the country are sub 100 IQ idiots
like you. The nation used to get along before you retarded twits
going to his rallies got the hate drilled into you.
 
You dumbfucks have place the entire globe into the Twilight Zone.

Yeah, except the way you used it was the "Drinking the Kool-Aid"
expression, even, as its roots have always been the stuff Jones
handed out, despite the misnomer it got for decades. As if he drank
it and survived, with degraded nueral effects. That didn't happen
when he became a republican. I know many whom are OK. It happened
when the idiot embraced the NYC criminal Doanld J. Trump. THAT was
his tainted Kool-Aid. Him and 63 million other idiots. NONE of them
did their due dilligence on the stupid bastard.
 
And the last nit would be that it is "Kool-Aid", unless, I suppose
you were referencing the above mentioned expression, then phonetic is
good enough.

Invest 2.9% of your paycheck into a decent S&P index fund and see how
much you got at the end of 40 years. Anyone with a real job will have a
pile of cash big enough to fund a private health insurance policy on
just the interest alone and they'll likely have a pile of cash to leave
their kids too.
 
A government run by democrats is *never* a good deal for a working taxpayer.

Do some research. Total up the cost of all federal, state and county
welfare programs and then ask yourself where the welfare money comes from.

You are nuttier than a fruitcake, and that even includes the
fruitcake some bunch of retards put into our nation's highest office.

The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.

Reference to the report for this pie chart?
Nice to see that we are not over extending ourselves in science and education. <snarkey remark>
How sad.
One thing I never seem to come across is the percent overhead in all these programs....

I read that the different pronunciations of these words is only among
people who grew up in the Mid-Atlantic states. Since I'm from South
Jersey and do pronounce them differently, I don't know if this is true
or not.

Neither of my parents spoke English as a first language. I was born in Chicago, raised in Ann Arbor, MI, NYC and Austin, TX. But, I have found that when we lived in other parts of the world and crossed paths mostly with Brits, the same distinctions obtained.
 
I have noticed that South Jersey speakers tend to have much cleaner, clearer tones and sounds than as one approaches NY and, at the very core of regionalism, Brooklyn, NY.

The story is great, the meter is marginal, and the rhyme needs some
work. Otherwise, I really like it. I didn't know that you wrote
poetry. I only write poetry when I'm irate, angry, frustrated, pissed
off, overloaded, and generally disgusted with everything and need to
unload. Hopefully, you have a better rationalization.

There were some absolutely wonderful contributions to the #AltHallelujah
thread on Twitter in the past couple of days. Apparently some company
took Leonard Cohen's song (which is most definitely *not* a Christmas
song!) and put it to some religious words.
 
In scorn of such a depredation, folk contributed "alternate hallelujah"
lyrics to the same rhyme and meter.

Hilarious and clever.

Have an HP CM1312nfi MFP. Had a nice old XP box that was the print server, Got a Vista box and a 7, there are 8 and 10 boxes in the house ad I would like to be able to print from any of them.
 
One disadvantage was that the XP box had to be to print. I tried to get the thing to boot itself after a power outage but had some problems with that, but it worked fine otherwise. The OS was slightly damaged but it was fine, I just could never get rid of the password box at boot even though there was no password set. By the way I do not care about security, all my stuff stays sighed in to everything. So someone could read my email, so can the government and I would even less want them able to. No kids, and people here are not nosy. Noone is here alone except us, ever.
 
Anyway I decided to plug the printer into the network directly. The disk I got with the printer doesn't cover anything past XP but the Vista box worked automatically. I left two PC groups because they don't like anything that is not brand new. the last straw was when one said "Printer that is only worth $250". Yeah, how much is YOUR printer worth ? If it is an inkjet you would ave to pay me to take it. So the Vista box lacks an optical drive, Windows lost it when I installed the second HD. there is to much on it now to remove it, for example this browser...
 
So I go to download the drivers. I got them for 7, 8 and Vista. They come right from HP. They are around 100MB so they are not like an internet assisted install. (the ones that are only a few KB and download as they go along)
 
In all cases the install starts and just stops. It does not lock up the PC, but I mean one time we tried we went shopping and like 2 hours later it still was sitting there.
 
The one common denominator I see here is HP, but I find it hard to believe they were trying to force end of life on these things. If they wanted that they would just say "Not Supported".
 
I might put together another XP box because I got all kinds of software. But still I would rather have the printer on the network.
 
Anybody got any idea of what the hell is going on here ? I am not throwing out this printer.
