CFM, I truly think you don't have a grip on reality when it comes to wages these days.
Aunty, when was the last time that you held down a full time job?

Here the reality Aunty:

What do all these people do if and when they loose their jobs? If you're a military person, your still going to get something if everyone continues to "pay there taxes". But once people loose these high paying jobs, what do you suppose they will do to make a living? No workers…no taxes coming in to pay governmental jobs either.

In our country, we walk a fragile line. The last time the line was broken was during the great depression. How far from that line are we now? Best thing that a person can do is to own his home and have no bills that he owes to anyone! laugh Can you do that? Can 98% of the members of this board do that? What if they loose whatever retirement benefits they are currently enjoying now, or their job?

Everything always seems to be good, until it's bad! I may not have a lot of new toys or the best and newest car and trucks, but what I do have is all mind! laugh Can most of you claim that and still have a straight face?

I owe no man anything! 0+0 equals 0!!

So who's really the smart one? You, like most, most likely, depend on someone else to pay their taxes so that you will have the perks and benefits and that you now enjoy today. But what will you and all the others do when, or if, that well goes dry? laugh laugh

I guess it’s the old grasshopper and ant story all over again! It's really not if it happens; it's when it happens! That's about all you need to known about me for now! I always make it my policy to look both up and down the river before I take off! Some people only look in the direction that they are heading! laugh
