Trump Is All Hot Air As Gas Prices Continue To Fall

[Man With A Plan]

The partisan agenda is bad for the country, does not matter which party it is.

There is not a winning choice in this election, we are merely choosing between being shot or being stabbed.

But hey, I am happy that you have a purpose in your life in your retirement, I hear that is important.

I have hobbies in my retirement. The working class people that you accuse of not getting off their asses don't have that luxury! They're too busy working extra hours to pay their bills.

How do you like Costa Rica? Do you make it over to Panama very often?

What makes one "working class" or not? Is it the job? is it the pay?

My wife is a ICU nurse, is that "working class"?

Love it. I have a house on the Pacific coast.
A nurse would indeed be working class. One of my definitions of what a working class person would be is someone who doesn't have the financial ability to protect themselves from Government.

Nice to hear. Do you own or rent? I do not plan to ever own again when we sell the house we have and move to Panama. I estimate that what we get for the house will pay for rent for at least 14 years. We like the option of being free to go "hey, lets move to "xxxxx" anytime we like.

This is sort of the problem with such labels as "working class" and "middle class" or what have you.

My wife is an RN, I am a data analyst/PMP. We have the financial ability to protect themselves from Government and if you do not count my military retirement my wife makes more than I do.

I bought the house in Costa Rica 23 years ago.

Watch yourself when you're dealing with stuff down there, Harpy. The "locals" basically view you as a walking ATM machine! They think all the Gringos are filthy rich and a lot of them will try to get over on you. Not sure about Panama but that's the case in Costa Rica. Watch out for the Expats as well...there are some really shady people who moved to get away from their past.

Thanks for the advice. I have heard much of the same for Panama, seems often the other ex-pats are the worst.

I have been talking online with a few Veterans in Panama that run the VSO in Panama City, as well as a few others I have met on-line.

We took our first fact gathering trip this past spring and plan to make at least 3 more before we move for good. Both of us have spent a good amount of time outside the US, myself living in Iran for 4.5 years growing up.

 

[BluesLegend]

$4.57?

Do you live in downtown Honolulu or something?

No the fossil fuel hating idiot Dem moron TAX and spend puke left coast.

 

[BluesLegend]

If the gas prices are Biden's fault, why am I only paying 2.49?

Because you live in Iran.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Because you live in Iran.

Good guess, but nope...wrong again.

I ran a boat down to C.R. winter of '03-'04 (chasing sailfish).

Spent a month in Los Suenos. Decided to take a cab to Jaco for dinner. We needed 2 cabs because there were 6 or 7 of us. Owner got the bright idea of offering the drivers an extra $20 to the car that got there first!

You can imagine what kind of ride that was was, lol.

Notoriously bad roads in C.R. but beautiful place. I did a little exploring while I was there. Montezuma (popular with expats, canucks and europeans), Puntarenas (gritty little fishing town), San Jose (watch out for the pickpockets!), then loaded the boat onto a Dockwise ship in Golfito and had them transport it back north.

I love the C.R. currency. Game fish and mermaids...

Nice. I visited the Beatle Bar (you know why).

I've considered renting my place and moving down there, the income from my place plus my SS would go a long way in C.R...

The world famous Beatle Bar is gone. Another casualty of Covid I'm afraid.

That's a shame. The most beautiful girls in Central America are found in Costa Rica. That place was legendary.

Gas prices are still higher than under Trump.

Suck on it.

Yeah, Trump says "I will not go to war" he says "I will lower inflation" he says "I will make gas prices go down" and in one go, he manages to go against his own policies.
