About a week ago I picked up some Armani and Buckle jeans for only 2.50 a piece. Talk about a steal of a deal! They didn't even know what they were selling.

I just spent $60 on: 4 t-shirts, 3 polo shirts, a pair of boxers. I'm going to bill the government since they should provide for me; it's in the constitution.

Well shit, just think about it...How many of you here have, or know people that have written unnecessary things off on their taxes? I personally haven't but know a crap load of people that have say...bought a new touch screen tv for their truck and said it was for business. People who have thrown in a few extra gas receipts or food receipts saying it was work related when it really wasn't....or etc. I mean come on. Your average Joe is looking for "theirs."

If you tell the "common man" that they could claim that new 09 Ford Pickup as a work vehicle when it's really just a car that you drive to work...how many would actually do it? People are always doing some shit. Now, in no way am I condoning tax write-offs, I'm just using them as an example.

And lastly, trust me, I should be the least of America's concern. There are millions on welfare, medicade/medicare, foodstamps, and etc. that SERIOUSLY should not have it. People who live off of drugs and use this money to feed their addictions. People who don't drive a 12 year-old miata but a say...evo X. I mean, my friend at school has two si hondas, an old crx, a durango, and owns his own home(still owes though). He is having a baby soon and is using medicade, foodstamps, and wic. His wife makes something around 35k a year and he makes around 12 or so. Why is okay for them to claim?

That's the mentality of a looter. Everyone else is stealing what they can get their hands on in a riot, why not get mine too? Still wrong, still a douche bag.

I write off my gas, work clothes, tools, etc. on my taxes so I have to support your ass less. If your sooooo broke how the hell were you gonna afford a wrx? And if your parents are loaded why are you using the goverment? Use your parents! Dad $500/hr x 40= $20,000...Mom two miatas a day? $7000ish x 5 days=$35,000 so in one week your parents make $55,000? WOW!

lol you're a fucking hypocrite. My parents are divorced by the way. I'm not about to start freeloading off of them. :fawk:

So just an update for those who care....Found a whole bunch of other programs such as WIC and lite-up texas(electricity discount). WIC we got approved for and has been a HUGE help with groceries. Some dumb bitch in San Marcos fucked up our Medicade so we have to restart the whole process, but she did get approved though. Just FYI though....where medicade sends us for her doctors visits...shit. We have been the ONLY white people. NO-one speaks english and everyone has medicade. Everything is in spanish before english, if even in english. All these illegals have gvt-insurance and are....well..illegal...they don't speak a lick of english...Now that pisses me off. These bitches are walking in with 4-5 babies all medicade paid, and you know they aren't paying into the system.

Went ahead and assembled the old crib my moms kept in her garage from when I was a baby. Friends/family are giving us a whole bunch of free shit that their kids have grown out of.

Still no luck on the miata(s) though. I even lowered the price down to 4500 for the 01. I really just don't think people are buying cars right now. I've put as much money as I am going to into the car. New floor mats, alignment and etc. Just kind of worried because tires are bald and I just hit 91k...that means tb job really soon( since I do about 1k miles a month). I really think if I wait a few months, when it's not 105 outside...and I might get a little more interest.


Job wise...starting the 14th I'll be waiting tables at my job instead of bussing...makes about twice as much. I went ahead and picked up an extra day so now 6 days a week plus school...I'm fuckin' dead! All-in-all we've figured out to put away about 400 a month away in savings if we keep up what we are doing...


So ya

At least now we now you're an ethnocentric racist as well.

Remove the log from your own eye before you go picking splinters.

Ditch the Failmatic and get a cheaper running high mpg run around to support your 4 door baby friendly car and stress relief miata.

I'm glad you are making progress in your job and your finances. Proper pre-natal care is very important for the child, so I'm glad you are making that happen as well.

Good luck with the sale. The used car market is a little softer than it was because the congress is borrowing money from communist China to fund the "cash for clunkers" program. Some of the people who should be used car buyers are buying new right now.

the illegals are here because you eat supermarket bacon. it's true.

and the govt wont raid the factory because the food producers are handing them money basically. they only raid individuals on rare occasions.

so before you complain about illegals... stop eating mass produced pork.

I don't care if you're mexican, german, black, white, or whatever...if you are here illegally I would say the same thing. For example, if I was in Miami going through the same process...I might say "all these damned cubans taking government money." It has nothing to do with being racist...I just can't stand people that come here and don't even learn the language.

Still the over-all goal. My mom has two altimas and might let me buy one for cheap if I can get rid of these miatas soon enough. It's a 2002 with the vq35...not too bad.

you know the united states does not have a national language, right?

Turbo_4 08-03-2009 11:44 PM

But it has a predominant language, english.
