I Fell Asleep During Economics Class
I am easily baffled, and the entire premise for our economy definitely has me baffled. Oh, I am a willing participant, but I think we have to figure out a different way of doing things.
Here’s my cut on the subject. The
If I stop working I can no longer buy things – some of which I need, most of which I don’t, but I suppose I better keep working because I don’t want to be blamed for crippling the country’s economy.

You still can do it like the government: buy things, but don't pay them and give a flying f* about the debts...

oh loyal blogger
hi
if you want to stop working you have to stop buying things
screw the "economy"
fairsCaPe
LOL, F*ck the economy! And f*ck buying what you don't need, materialism is killing us all!
NEVER 'impulse' buy!
Walk away & think it over, first!
(Um...unless you're gonna buy some pastry in a lil shoppe in WI...then, by all means...'impulse' buy away!!!)
:-D
I hated Economics in Uni anyways...I wonder how I passed it.
Keshi.
Never took "Economics" . Do ya think that's the reason I had to close my 2 bars ?
It is good of you to keep the economy rolling. I'll help you by buying something soon - so you can take a break.
How does that theory work regarding all the people on wellfare who don't work, but keep spending money on things they need and things that they sometimes don't need?
I say work hard Phos, tens of thousands of people on wellfare are depending on you.
hey...
just dropping by. letting you know that there is a comment for you to read on Seb's blog by me...
cheers!!!
DM: I think the collection agencies would start calling long before I got a trillion dollars in debt. I wonder if there is a “World Collection Agency” that goes after deadbeat counrtries?
FS: That is what my wife tells me – quit buying stuff. Unfortunately I am a bookaholic. Glad to see you got some quality time with your PC!! Thanks for stopping by!
Hi Becky! Might not be able to buy gas much longer! I do most of my damage at the bookstore. In fact Ms. Phos has forbade me to enter said establishment without adult supervision.
Jin: Yeah, all I need is cake right now. A few more slices and they’ll have to bury me in a piano case. None-the-less I may have to journey up into your neck of the woods one of these days.
Keshi: I wonder how I made it out of high school, and it only took me about ten years to get a college degree – and I am not a doctor!!
WC: Hey you gave it a shot. I think it is tough to make a go ofbars and restaurants because of the intense competition.
Chikie: Thanks for the assist!!
SF: I did get nailed at tax time come to think of it. I suspect that as much as I hate this house, if I want to keep it I will have to plug away. I figure on working until they nail the lid on the box.
City o’ Angelz:
Thanks for dropping by. I think Seb has put me in the penalty box, so I may not be by for a while.
LOL!
Keshi.
hm,i think, there is no necessary to buy everything you see. And sometimes its worth to save money to to permit yourself to go to Cyprus, coz last month i visited this country and spent great time there in Cyprus Four Seasons . All these Spa, Cypriot evenings, wine tasting.. There are so much interesting there!
I do the working thing, but not so much of the buying thing. I'm pretty sure that buying things you don't need is only for rich people.
I think I read somewhere that the richest .00065% of the population has 99.9999996993% of the wealth, but I may have just made that up.
Jess: Isn't Cyprus part of Turkey?
Timmy: I think you are correct. I inhabit the area of the curve that is keeping the rich bastards in their .00065% niche
Tax the rich, feed the poor, til there are no rich no more.
I know those words are from a song, but I just can't think of the title or artist
SF: Probably from the movie "Robin Hood" or if not it almost has to be something from Woody Guthrie tune.
