‘I Am Willing to Give Up Some of My Constitutional Rights…to Be Safer

Quote from bigarrow:

It's easy and good NOW pspr but it took me a long damn time and a lot of hard work to finally get it. You can probably find a post of mine to quote where I've said that before.

The problem is that, like alot of other Boomers, you are looking backwards at America's "good times" when the credit bubble was expanding and there was enough economic growth for that hard work to pay off. That's not to say that the 1970's were in any walk in the park, but an education didn't cost an arm and a leg and if you had any cash you could buy real estate at a huge discount.

Nowadays, the upcoming generations are so completely mired in debt with a lowered standard of living and the opportunities aren't what they once were. The political "solutions" to all of this just make the problem worse.

Of course whenever this point is debated, you instantly revert back to how great you have it and how little you have to work nowadays...which is completely besides the point for all of the aforementioned reasons.

LOL Looks like it only took you a week to go from hard work to easy street from your two posts. But then, that's the liberal way! :D

lol . . . Pspr is itching for a fight.
I know you guys have trouble with facts when they are pointed out. If that tends to make a liberal want to fight then, so be it.

I've been doing this for about 25 years and the last 10 have been fun and good and overall easy. Your time frame is way off. But that's ok pspr you're way off on almost everything you post on here.

It's not my time frame. It was your statement from just last week.

Oh well. You can be excused for getting all mixed up about your life. Being a liberal, it's probably all fictional anyway. :D
