WTF Chuck: Working Class Spends Money On 'Booze & Women'

How many rich people did you see in line to spend a $1,000 on a phone?


.

Or starting riots over $400.00 sneakers?


Yep, poor people are poor for a reason, they have screwed up priorities. I pay less than $20 sneakers and $90 for a phone. But if I should have a major break down on my truck, I have the money to fix it. Most people have to finance a set of tires.


.
What a bunch of a-holes Republicans are... Ignorant and brainwashed.... Breaking for GOP dupes, we have the worst inequality of any modern country and it's not a personal problem. It's a political problem caused by the GOP obviously...


Got to love that bumper sticker mentality.


.
I buy tires online it's cheaper..


How long does it take you to pay off the credit card? I buy mine form a local company that has good prices, they also rotate and rebalance for free and have a killer road hazard policy, which I used extensively when I was driving commercially.

GOP Senator Implies Those Who Aren’t Millionaires Waste Money On ‘Booze, Women’

That’s why the richest deserve a break on estate taxes, says Chuck Grassley.

In an astonishing defense of dropping “death taxes” for individual estates worth more than $5.5 million, GOP Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley implied that people not currently affected by that tax are “spending every darn penny ... on booze or women.”

“I think not having the estate tax recognizes the people that are investing — as opposed to those that are just spending every darn penny they have, whether it’s on booze or women or movies,” Grassley told the Des Moines Register in an interview published Saturday. Grassley, who serves on the Finance Committee, made the remark when asked about the Senate tax reform measure which would double the exemption for estates to $11 million for an individual and $22 million for a couple. Heirs would inherit the estates tax-free.

Grassley’s comment triggered a wave of criticism on social media. Many complained that the working class is, in fact, spending “every darn penny” on raising their kids, caring for elderly parents, health care and putting food on the table. One Twitter user complained that the GOP was turning America into a version of “The Hunger Games.”

Wow! Just Wow! It takes a real neanderthal to make such an ignorant statement. However, Grassley has proven many times that he is an ignorant neanderthal.

I knew an old cowboy once, one of the real things, not a drugstore cowboy. He stated that when he was young, he spent most of his money on booze and women, the rest, he just wasted.

Wake up or keep the blinders on, that's your choice.

But this really isn't a topic with much grey area for interpretation. He was talking about you, me and probably 99.9% of the people on this website.
 
It is not "elitist" to say someone has messed up financial priorities... How many times you think I've told my kids they're wasting their money on stupid shit? Am I "elitist" against my kids?

The estate tax is nothing more than stealing from children, its money that parents saved going to their kids... Hell it hits spouses too; here you're trying to grieve the loss of your partner and the fucking gov is standing there with a proverbial gun demanding money. Then there's the "double taxation" issue; which is a double edged sword I won't get into detail on (interest not paid taxes on, but sometimes they've paid tax on it before they put it in the bank, etc.)

You seem to think I should actually care, what he said has no bearing on me, so why should I be offended? Does it apply to you? If it does maybe you could look at reorganizing your priorities.

Yeah, yeah...let's all pretend that our "poor" aren't our greatest liability. Let's pretend the 'poor' doesn't represent the majority of the folks smoking cigarettes, smoking weed, with drinking problems, drug addictions...etc etc
Come on guys...stop the madness, sack up and learn to appreciate the whole truth. Stop dumbing yourselves down for the sake of PC. Don't be scared.
