Oh Shit

It's almost 10:30 and I realized I haven't kept my word and updated this today. I've been very busy to have not moved my truck at all today. I slept until 12:30 like a bad white person, then ate the remnants of the toaster strudels with some coffee and took a shower. I should also mention my father pulled a trick out of my sister's book and ate most of the box and then stuck the open end towards the back so nobody could see. After that I checked the mail and got my hard drive case from Hong Kong. $3.55 shipped to America and it works like a dream. It's amazing how something can be shipped halfway around the world and still cost much less than 1/4 of what it would have at the store. Is our markup really that much or are import taxes that high? Maybe that's part of the problem with the world today is anyone with any common sense would rather support another government than our own when things are that cheap over there. Maybe the corporate giants should stop being so fucking greedy. If it was 7 or 8 dollars to go buy at the store my happy ass would get in my truck and go buy it. However, why in the blue hell would I spend between $15 and $60 to buy the same exact thing? I'll gladly send my money to China and they'll take it with a smile. Maybe that's why our economy is going to hell in a hand basket. We no longer know the value of anything. Their cars cost half what ours do even after being shipped here and they have the same technology and sometimes even more technology than we do and then people are bitter when they sell literally four times as many cars as Americans. The only people left that still buy American cars are the ones who think they are traitors to their country if they don't buy one. Little do they know almost every individual part of that car is made somewhere else and assembled in North America (notice I didn't say the U.S.) but it helps them sleep at night. So with that theory we should be competitively priced with their cars but we are too greedy as a country and we like to act like martyrs when the C.E.O.s of these companies have to go from 15 million dollars a year to 12 million dollars a year salary. If they want to be competitive with the Asian companies, take a salary of $1 a year and then make the rest of their pay incentive based. Shit well get done really quickly to lower costs and make better vehicles. But that's not fair, we need to give them bailouts and our Presidents need to treat them like American heroes for robbing our country for so long. This is just our economy catching up with all of the criminals that run the wealthiest companies in America but they are powerful enough to take their hatred out on us and still not be able to feel the effect aside from an occasional suicide or Ponzi scheme. Don't pay $40,000 dollars for the new F-150 if you can get a new Tundra for $28,000 with more options and don't pay $20 for a designer cell phone case when it's 99 cents from China including shipping. When the market dries up they will fold or they will change their ways. Neither the government or its people should have to bail out failures. When we failed a test in school did we go to the principal and tell them it's because everyone else was smarter than us and we're being treated unfairly and the only way to make it right is to give us the same grade as everyone else? I didn't think so. Stop disgracing us America and the American industry, think back to fifty years ago when we were self-sufficient and had to make a good product to thrive and until you relive those days you deserve to fail.
