Another thing that pisses me off about the US- how the welfare system works. Heres an example: when I was in college(many moons ago) I was a bag boy at a small grocery store. Being that close to the cashier its a bit hard to not notice how people pay. A couple I was bagging for used a vision card, no big deal right? Then I took their bags out to their early 70's cherry Corvette. I mean this thing had obviosly been painstakingly restored. They could afford that car but not groceries? I call bullshit. My wife and I both work, have 2 children and receive no welfare but I see welfare families with nicer things than us. I understand the economy is shit but its not impossible to find a job. They get their medical paid, free money and food, rent for seriosly, like 30 bucks a month. They will even buy you a vehicle and maintain it(atleast these are things I know they will do in Kansas). If I didn't have pride I'd say fuck this work shit and live the high life.
Another thing that pisses me off are taxes. In protest I haven't filed taxes since 2000(yes, I know I'll be in prison soon).
Land of the free? Then why the fuck can't I smoke in a bar? Its ok for people to destroy their livers but the lungs must be saved? The same with buying cigarretes at 18 but alcohol at 21. I think the smoking age should be 21 too. And I love the fact a kid can fight in a war before he can even buy a beer.
Why the fuck do I have to wear a seat belt? Shouldn't it be my decision? Make seatbelts required for people up to 18 but adults? Bullshit. A few months ago I wasn't wearing my seatbelt so they pulled over my wife and ticketed me for $10. No big deal except they told my wife she had a suspended license(which was incorrect). She went to court with the proof she had a valid license the whole time, that they had made a mistake, yet they still refused to give her physical license back until she paid the 70 dollar court cost. What kind of horse shit is that? We paid for their mistake?:mad:
And thats my rant of the day.
