Wow. I totally didn't put words in your post, Mr. Pissy Pants. Maybe you shouldn't put "irrational" in my posts either then. Boo hoo. Seriously? That was there in case someone wanted to point that out - a disclaimer, if you will.
I never said shame on the people in Oregon. I simply said you can change your life if you get up and do something about it. Say one family owned 50 acres, but the economy was so bad, they couldn't feed their 5 kids. Well, 50 acres is alot. Sell 25. Now you can feed the kids. Or better yet, sell it all and move to a more prosperous state or town. Novel idea there. Sell your house and move. People do it every day. Sell your extra car to give you some time to find a job. Sell your body. That's a joke, but you get the idea. Ebay! Craiglist! That old baseball card collection. Really, you can do it if you think creatively.
The lazy part deals with what I see in Texas and the south in general. Fuck if I know what's going on up north - never been there. I would suspect it's not that much different though. Down here I've been threatened just for driving by the projects on the way to see family. Something about "wrong color". The cars are mostly SUVs with gold or chrome trim, drugs are being sold on the corner, and out that one window you can smell weed. Typical day. Great work, gov't!
I've been to the ER about half a dozen times for various stupidity and clumsiness. 5 out of 6 times I'm backed up with half the people not speaking english in front of me, and they all had 2 to 6 kids. The one time I didn't get backed up was because I got strapped to a board and brought in by waaambulance. Go figure, Will. It's Houston man, come on. Half the town is illegal. It's my demographic and obviously not your's.
It funny how you claim I put words in your posts, but that is your primary form of attack. We're speaking english, but not the same language. Try dialing it back a little man. I don't really feel like being pissy. If the proposals are so good, then give some facts as to why instead of trying to hammer on my posts.
So, what's so good about it? I haven't read everything, but does anyone have a list of what is actually being proposed?
