Are there NO problems in Canada for you to concern yourself with? All this time, I had no idea what a utopia it must be....

A couple years ago the CAD was in par and worth more than the USD. No it's .80 on the dollar.

That is what happens when you use loonies.

Having a strong dollar is not necessarily good for our economy.

I know, but destroying the dollar hurts savers and people on fixed incomes.

From the USA ... they moved there to get free health insurance BO (before Obama).

Like Randy Quaid and his wife.

CLASSIC

 

[TBH]

I feel sorry for their future spouses.

how are they going to get a future spouse living in Mommy's basement? Isn't that a date killer?

If you look really closely you can see that the left skate doesn't come close to hitting the goalie's face.

in america 50% of 25 year olds are living at home with parents, 30% of 30 year olds are living at home w parents

instead of working a low paying job at 40 hours a week, these rotten lazy kids need to being working 80 hours a week! whats wrong with this generation?!?

certainly capitalism leaving america for low paying jobs overseas has nothing to do with it. and im positive the average $30,000 student debt (highest in the developed world) for a bachelors degree has nothing to do with it...

Funny thing is, when you work for yourself you don't need to work for low pay or have a degree. But you do need to have some drive, and probably need to work 60 hours a week or more.

60 hours a week is just getting started.
It use to be like that for UPS Management until UPS decided to eliminate the Partner/Ownership compensation.
I remember a normal Monday - Friday week being 70 hrs plus with many a Saturday thrown in for good measure.

Yep ... I worked probably an average of 40 hours a week as a P/T sup.

Real capitalism.... When you worked 40 hours but only got paid for 25.
