Seems closer to suggesting everyone should have equal access to these luxuries without having to consider the financial sense of purchasing these luxuries. And employees who don't pay even their lowest employees enough to afford them should be maimed or killed. itp: a roof over your head and food in your belly is a luxury --- peanut butter and dick ...

And employees who don't pay even their lowest employees enough to afford them should be maimed or killed. The government already provides assistance for people who don't make enough for housing/food, doesn't it? And the point I made earlier is that your narrative is incomplete - it is ignoring the fact that the vast majority of working Americans could be and should be financially very stable. There's no reason not to thrive in this country (barring illness). People are making a lot of bad decisions that are directly affecting their housing and food choices and keeping them stuck. IE when you tie up $479 a month on just a car payment you're kind of screwing yourself out of your own potential, all in the name of living beyond your means and wanting everything now. --- proudclad LAYIN DOWN THE SMACK - Error1355 ...
