Because, let's face facts...

If you CAN'T buy a Lexus like most people buy pizzas,
you're just a fucking waste of skin, aren't you?

1. The worst thing you can be in America is poor.
Always been that way.

9. Because then you cannot be a "good consumer".
I am ready to shriek the next time I hear us referred to as 'consumers".
But sadly, that is the only value we have to government/business. Soldiers or consumers.

4. When I retired a pickup truck that was old enough to vote, I could have
but I decided to pay off my house and give some back, instead, from the proceeds from the sale of my dad's house after he died.

I ended up buying a little Kia putt putt that's fun to drive, great on gas, and has adequate room for all my fibre junk.

5. The trophy wife laden with Jared jewelry in a big red-bowed Lexus - the 'Murican dream
We're thinking of giving a Lexus to our newspaper delivery guy for Christmas.

Mostly because it makes shopping sooo easy.

8. Yup, we're just one big giant consumer cess pool.
George Carlin is right - we've just become one big commercial coast to coast shopping mall.
