People have been bitching about muh cost of living since the 90s while being the richest and most well off humans to ever exist.

---

In the entire span of human existence, yes, this is 100% correct.

Food is readily available and we take things like a hot shower for granted.

And I agree that as long as a drive through coffee place remains open, we aren't doing that bad.

I do feel like the past few generations have experienced a decline in a standard of living. Civilization in the US peaked after WW2, when we had amassed incredible production and logistics and the rest of the world was a burning cinder. I feel like we've drifted down from this peak as the world recovered and globalization took hold. Now we have to compete with worldwide labor. And it's often much cheaper than a well-to-do American.

Zero chance he is fired

WE can't afford it.

Despite their record A&M isn't a scrub team. And I'm sure they bought better talent with their bigger budget.

In this era, this is not a "fire the coach" loss.

Some people need to get a damn grip.

Ridgeline has a V6

Big fan of Honda and their V6 but most truck buyers don't consider it.

I'd get the Passport before the Ridgeline

I've never once heard anyone ever complain about government healthcare.

I saw the /s.

But people talk about how "popular" medicare and social security is. Well of course free (and heavily subsided) services are loved by the beneficiaries.

Miata.

Miata Is Always The Answer.

Probably not.

But the WTA women would leapfrog men in wealth if they played in sports bras and hot pants.

Still no Dwight Yoakam.

And they admin this whiny "take my momma...take my daddy..take my credit card" weiner and that pandering closeted hairless cherub Kenny Chesney instead.

What a joke.

I pay over $1,400 a month on property taxes alone on our very modest home

Now that is outrageous. I pay less than that anually.

Where the hell is this?

22-year old former Kentucky cheerleader pleads guilty to suffocating her newborn
Sam Quint
this is why we will see serious attempts at legalizing post-birth abortions soon.

---

They already dismember them in the womb. Suffocating is probably less traumatic.

This is the slippery slope we've been headed down for decades.

They've said forever that they weren't "viable." 6 month old is just as dependent on the mother as they were in the womb.

What you fail to understand is it all boils down to virtually everyone getting extremely fricked with every contribution they make to the program. Among contributors, there are no winners. The only winner is Uncle Sam. If you don't understand that, you are the patsy at the poker table.

Not everyone. The first recipients and boomers get way more out of it than they ever put in.

It's the workers-to-retirees ratio that's changed.
