stop voting republican


has nothing to do with voting on way or another, it has to do with the person themselves. when people stop voting blue dog politics and start voting for the idelogy of the specific candiate, as well as their track record, then hopefully there will be some change.

if the person they vote for doesn't do what they like, they make your voice heard by voting.

If you buy something you're going to buy anyway, and you do it on a weekend that saves you 5% more, you're also smart.


Okay, so like 10% of shoppers on tax free weekends.

Just like prime day, most are buying crap just to buy it.

The practicality is a different conversation, but saying you're trashy for saving 2-6% extra is dumb.

Congrats. You saved 40 whole dollars.

Actually $45.
But, since I needed to purchase this item anyway, why not enjoy the savings?
If you don't need $45, you can mail me a check for that amount.
TIA.

I didn’t say that. I’m saying it’s trashy to go out and spend a bunch of money just to “save” on sales tax.

You aren’t saving anything. You’re spending it.

$45 isn’t going to sway my purchasing decision either way.

Places are way to crowded to justify saving $0.08 per dollar.


Most of the time they still charge local tax... so really it was saving 5 cents on the dollar, or now 4.45 cents

The ones that are saying you are only saving a few cents are the same ones that bitch if gas goes up 3 cents a gallon.

hey, you had a mistype.

frick LOUISIANA and it's backwards arse poltics. from the Landrieus, to th Gravy Trains, and all the swamp people - duck dynasty loving shite hole of a state.

Born and raised NOLA, but it can all wash away for all i care. That state abhors any sort of progress and yet the same people get kept in office. That is the basic definition of insanit


Then frick off. You don’t help either. Just fricking run like all the cowards.

Interesting that someone who wants a better life for them and their families are cowards.

Just responding to him. I don’t really have reservations against people who do what they have to.

Meanwhile, their salaries go unchanged.

This. Teachers have to work like 80 hours a week grading papers and doing lesson plans and they never get a raise. If your reading this than thank a teacher!
