You are groomed to blow money and work yourself into a frenzy to pay off stupid debt. Save your money. Get involved. Keep seeking truth. Love the truth and try in some quiet and very substantial way to love your neighbors as you love yourself.

Lol. I don't work right now. I have no debt. I am involved (minimally on a library board). I know the truth.

Your view of the world is warped. You're looking for negative when the lives for 10/10 people are better than they were just 10 years ago. Turn the TV off man or get better BP meds. You're too high strung.

jazz_music says

Who is your response for really? Your status with the esteemed right wing cohorts? Certainly not for me. You wouldn’t talk like that to someone who might be your customer would you? —no, you would suck up like a good fuck-weasel wouldn’t you? The phony nice facade you give your fucking neighbors. LOL

My response was for you. Which you addressed nothing of which I asked. Which is fine.

1) I'm not right wing. Look at my comments like you've asked me to do of you.
2) I run a business. I can talk to customers however I want. So far it has kept me in business.
3) Fuck-weasel (not sure why the hyphen). Don't suck up to anyone, don't get the point.
4) You need new neighbors. I'm convinced you live next to shitwad's and that is tainting your perspective.
5) You're likely bitching about your own life on a site called patrick.net. Is that winning? (that's not a negative on the site Patrick, just making a point)

So the Chinese are going to stop buying made in China cell phones in protest?

Go ahead, how much between Gates, Bezos and Buffet?

Do your own research! That’s how we got to this point, an it’s not like you’d accept my results anyway.

HonkpilledMaster says

I wonder what would happen if you only looked at Whites.

I didn't want to go there myself, but that's what I thought when I saw the list of states for each item. (yes I know this is a somewhat oldish post)

And how the fuck does WY show up twice on that list? You can't create a serious list and bash WY if you haven't been there. While it's not some massive GDP bull, it's a cool fucking state. I guess leftists hate two of the greatest parks, that aren't being drilled for oil..... in the fucking world. This is nuts.

I do not think that OP is exactly correct. From wiki,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_by_educational_attainment


Both "progressive" CA and "regressive" TX are at the very end.

Good catch. And WY is kicking high school ass. lol.

I'm sure I'll get called racist, but do any of the top 11 even crack 15-20% minority population (hispanic/black)? I think Honk has a valid point on this topic. And how in the flying fuck does an entire state not graduate 20% of their k-12 students? That's fucking embarrassing.

My assets herewith but not broken down to types of stock funds.

85% + stocks; principally mutual funds of several types.

Some in balanced funds; Vanguard Wellington, Vanguard Wellesley Income .

5% High Yield Corporate fund, 5% High Yield Muni bond fund.

11% Individual stocks: the % of this is growing because I bought some shares of AAPL (Apple) and this went up a bunch.

1. AAPL (Apple) ; a bunch
2. WFC (Wells Fargo) ; some
3. MSFT (Microsoft) ;some
4. DE (John Deere) ; a little bit
5. BABA (Alibaba) ; a little bit

The registration (type of account) of the mutual funds varies;

1. Roth IRA
2. SEP-IRA
3. Traditional IRA
4. Vanguard Variable Annuity
5. HSA at Fidelity; Health Savings Account; this is invested in mutual funds and will be spent like a traditional IRA
6. Taxable, "regular accounts" including Vanguard Tax Managed Capital Appreciation and others less tax efficient.

The coolest is the HSA because this is deductible before everything else; it reduces your Obamacare premium pay back liability. I wish I did this earlier.

Sounds like wise advice.
I’d put the 5% collectibles into fine art. That always appreciates.

How about cds at 2.5%,stock market is high pe. Waiting for 20% correction
Or BerkB ,
What r good div stocks currently?
I

Why muni, pays 1to 2% barely?
Why annuity vs cds?

WookieMan says

Hawaii, majority Asian and mixed; Alaska, White ca 65%, American Indian/Aleut 20%. Interestingly, AK is solid R.

Hawaii passes a lot of kids they shouldn't. Sure there are Japanese but there are also lazy, grumpy Native Hawaiians who don't appreciate that if it wasn't for the US taking them over, the Imperial Japanese would have exterminated them.

Collectables or collectibles?

Is "fine art" liquid? Gold coins?

Regarding fine art "always appreciates". Consider BID...
A good indicator of excess liquidity.
Doesn't always appreciate.

"The Last Time There Was This Much CO2, Trees Grew at the South Pole"

Then why aren't trees growing at the South Pole now? Talk about deluded.

How do you know there is a South Pole?

How do I know? Because I have been there. No trees either, I had to trek 1,000 miles for my dog to take a piss.

How do you make the CD's expire at the right time?

Layoffs are now done on a quarterly basis. This is the same company that took away people vested defined benefit pensions, and did some serious salary range reductions last year.

Ask Kurt Russell, here's what's down in the South Pole ...

This couldn't be Florida. Florida women are known for removing their sanitary pads with a crowbar.

Is he even voting age? Love the camo and maga hat..

First of all, it was not the "red neck" vote that got Trump elected. The cartoon "red neck vote" concept is just the left wing's way to disparage people who voted for Trump. Hence the appeal of someone creating the phony "red neck" to spout left wing talking points such as the "Make America White Again" parody of MAGA and "afraid of losing power" and "afraid of becoming minorities."

Next time you want to imitate a rural white, try using the correct style of camos, use a US Flag instead of a State flag, and do not put the hat on backwards. The maker of this video likely thought the Mississippi state flag would add to the "red neck" effect since it contains a Confederate battle flag. Wrong accent for Mississippi.

Fake news

That was from last year.

Why do you hate facts?

Fake news

That’s like 95% of everything he posts here!
I swear it’s like reading some chain email my dad forwarded. Absolutely zero sense of perspective coupled with a naivety that would be cute on a five year old, but on a 70 year old is just pathetic.

If we do not get a major crash before Nov 2020, Trump will be re-elected. A few special interest losses do not matter.

As of today AT&T now has gay emoji's in it's internal instant messenger.
HONK HONK!!!

If we do not get a major crash before Nov 2020, Trump will be re-elected.

Or a war.

Oh look liberals put up a fake Trump supporter. Just another dog and pony show to try to fool people. Yawn...

Trump is losing supporters the same way CVS is closing stores. hahahah

I get a liberal arts tranny vib off that guy look at his eyebrows, probably drama major doing his best to sound hillbilly. The white trump hat, flag, and camo mumu are nice touches.

Are you some kind a fortune teller?

I see rain drops in your future
No I see tear drops
I see a baby
No it is a man it is you
A great sadness befalls you
I see the numbers 2020
the smoke clears
I see more Trump 2020 in your future

Some of you bitches are absolutely immune to reality. That shows that reality, when it bites, will be a tougher pill for you to take.

You mean this reality?
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president_trump_job_approval-6179.html

Trump averages is in the mid 40s, which means he's in the high 40s. Mid 40s is enough for re-election.

Congress, however, is in the low 20s.

Generation Zyklon will vote primarily Trump. Millenials (not all but many) were the culmination of the education abomination, caused by the baby boomers guilt issues for financially raping the system. At this point only Gabbard could beat Trump in 2020.

At this point only Gabbard could beat Trump in 2020.

Gabbard, et al, are just vying for Vice President for when Creepy Joe wins the primary. Joe will likely pick one of the women.

MAGA_BOMBER says

Epolls are not reality. This other asshole posted his epoll from Zogsby and called it "FACTS" when Zogsby is the worst @CovfefeButDeadly.

Oops, RCP is a poll of polls. And Zogby isn't included in their Poll-of-Polls.
