Don’t Buy Stuff

Warning: TOTAL SOAPBOX ISSUE

I was raised this way: If you have the money, you can buy it. If you don’t, you can’t. It’s amazing to me how many people just don’t get it. Including the people who are supposed to be “smart” and “powerful” and are in charge of running our government. I think this should be required reading for all of our elected officials.

And that is all I have to say about that.

  1. The clip isn't playing for me :( BUT I totally agree with what you wrote. I am a wee bit bitter living on a budget so I can pay for our gov't (and those living off the gov't) to not live on a budget. I could go on and on, but I won't. :)

  3. Yah, Baby. Love the clip! Hate that it is 4 years old. Maybe they need an updated one... Oops. My Bad. It isn't politically correct to insinuate that people don't have money available to spend on whatever they want. That is demeaning and hurtful to their self esteem.
    And I am more than a little bitter about the extravagance of the government with MY money...the pennies I try to save to buy something I want! Dang it!
