Don't get me wrong, this is good, but frankly....I could wipe my ass with that amount...I have installed PC's at corporations where the hardware budget dwarfed this amount of money.

Is The US Retarded?




I am sorry but I have to ask...is the US retarded?

Jobless rates the highest in 20 years.

Federal bail outs for businesses too stupid or greedy to run efficiently, or legally, or morally, or ethically.

A war on two fronts, Afghanistan and Iraq, which has been a military no-no since Sun-Tzu.

CEO's of major industries making grotesque profits while normal workers suffer to the point of hunger or homelessness.

1 in 100 citizens in the US in prison.

Suspension of constitutional rights in the name of homeland security.

Energy consumption outstripping the capability of the world to provide.




What will you do today?

US Unemployment Lines Hit 20-Year Peak

More workers are living on unemployment checks in the US today than at any time in more than 20 years, the US Department of Labor reported last week. Figures released July 10 indicated that 439,000 workers filed new claims for unemployment benefits in the week ending July 5, an increase of 5,000 from the week before. At the same time, the number receiving benefits jumped to 3,818,000, increasing by 87,000 in just one week, and reaching a level not seen since February 1983.

YEEEESSSS! I knew we could do it, screw you 1983!

I knew we'd beat you if we tried hard enough.

Cost of a single 500-pound GBU (guided bomb unit) is $10,000


YEEEEHAAAW! 10 grand going bye-bye.

How much did you make last year?

Could you have bought 4 or 5 bombs for the war effort?

Depends on how patriotic you are I guess.
