no they don't. they brush away real questions on comsumer spending with glib comments about "lattes" and "mcmansions" not being to blame. it's the whole consumer bundle, not lattes and mcmansions.

not in the least the average consumer buys a lot of shit he does not need, including the average middle class consumer. and although middle class Americans don't all buy "McMansions" they do buy houses they can not afford, do remodels they can not afford, take vacations they can not afford, buy boats, RVs, ATVs, continually replace appliances, spend money on restuarants, entertainment etc. The average middle class American has no control over spending. The article you cited is bullshit, like anything you spew on this site. And life for the average American is a whole fuck lot better than it is for most of the world.

funny, coming from a guy for whom gratuitous statements are bread and butter

i challenge the methodology of the moron who wrote that article. and Americans hardly have "sub standard living conditions". 90% of the world's population would cut off an arm to live here.

the middle-class lifestyle is part of the problem you fucktard

yes, you are - and a fucking ass clown to boot.

yes, kill the bourgeois capitalist pigs!

workers of the world unite!

well, yeah, you got to have enough cash to pay off the finance charges every month! and pay taxes to bail out the credit card company's only rich people pay taxes, so that's ok

well, yeah, you got to have enough cash to pay off the finance charges every month!

Americans don't have bank accounts. Huge, endlessly running credit card debt, OTOH... but heh, we should be able to buy 5 plasma TVs, a new car every 3 years, and not have to buy health insurance - that's too much money!

More importantly, what color tie did Glenn Beck wear today? a rainbow-colored tie... NTTAWWT

That's funny, that was called CUTTING AND RUNNING when your boy was in there. Where's all the "victory", "glory", and "freedom" now? cutting and running is an option and it's what b-ho promised, didn't he?

sorry, i saw too many Kevbone posts today

all options are being considered? What about withdrawing the troops - don't see that listed above...

FUCK YEAH!

unlike you who don't support "policies" but personally CHOOSE to buy foreign cars?

here are two birds for you:

we don't need to hear about your little bird

OJ is looking for the *real* killer

they are lizard people from outer space who eat live rodents

these conspirators were not very sure of themselves, considering the hundreds of millions they lost by running out of vaccine with so many willing dupes still looking (unsuccessfully) for their shot

clearly ttk is off his meds again

War is peace.
