  Everyone thinks they are owed a living for little to no work.

  That is the new union mantra. All we want is more money for less work, and more time to not get it done.

  I go to the refrigerator, get out a milk jug, and say two prayers? One to the jug, the other to god; and see which one answers first.

  US Government Insurrection Attempt

  so now we know the russian dossier was a fraud, the whole "russian collusion" was a hoax, and we know it was funded by the clintons and promoted by the dem's media allies.. given that this was the basis for an actual attempt to remove the elected president of the united states, this was an attempted insurrection.. clinton is guilty and should face charges.. given that they did this, does anyone still believe that they wouldn't commit some lesser, election fraud, crimes?.

  if so, you still haven't learned anything.

  "fool me once" and all that ....

  Stupid leftists. Too bad they cannot be treated like the cockroaches they are.

  Attack me all you want, I tried the "play nice" method for too long; now it is time to use the lefts methods in return.

  i just watched this movie today and still not sure what to make of it .. did / do these people really believe what they preached ?

  on the one hand i would say they did ,however on the other hand they knew religion was a gold mine for them .. and their lifestyle how they live reflected that .. and i can see the gb of the wt in it for the same reasons but they do it without all of the theatrics that these televangelists seem to thrive on.. i look forward to your thoughts on the movie..

  "The Bunker" episode

  by neat blue dog in

  if you like criminal minds check out season 13 episode 6, the bunker.

  of course it borrows from cults in general but some jw similarities as well, such as emotional propaganda videos, us vs them, telling new converts that they're going to be persecuted and told lies about the organization, end of the world fear etc.. here's an idea: if you're pimo, watch it with a jw relative and watch the discomfort ensue 😏.

  One knock (pause) nine knocks (pause) one knock (pause) four knocks. Oh wait, that would be just for the JW's.

  Water / Sewerage ,will there still be people working in these areas to provide them and maintain the systems?

  Won't need anyone to maintain them. Just do what those jews did centuries ago, take your peg outside the camp and take a dump. Then it will magically disappear.

  The Poor the Wealthy and the Middle Class

  the poor spendthe middle-class savethe wealthy invest.

  the unique circumstances of the lockdown and stimulus checks has highlighted these differences in stark ways.. on one hand, you have jumps in sales and valuation of companies like foot locker and nike, as people spend their "free" government money on sneakers.

  they blow it on useless tat.

  Proverbs 13:22 is a really profound verse that says, 'a good man leaves an inheritance to his grandchildren.'

  The JW's will spin that to mean only a "spiritual" inheritance with an Awake mag college edumakayshun though!

  so how does she get away with not being DF? or even publicly reproved ?

  $$$$$$$$$$$$

  As one now an elder told me, "It doesn't matter what sin you commit, as long as you give the WT enough money and claim it was only a moment of weakness, you can pretty well get off scot-free."

  He should know, he cheated on two witness wives, gets drunk regularly, and embezzled thousands from his business, and cheated others out of their pay for working for him.

  The profits are also reinvested. The thing that stops most people is they fact that it takes twenty years or so for this to start showing significant gains.

  Compounded interest is a wonderful; thing, the longer one can collect it. Another thing that helps is, as my dad used to say, "Live below your means." Just because you have a dollar does not mean you need to spend it. It was investing as much as I could at any given time in a 401k, and not trying to spend or borrow my way to wealth that enabled me to retire, comfortably, before I was 50 years old.
