Couldn't do either, had to be rebuilt and "brought up to code." And they had to be the one to do it. Believe me he tried.GrumpyCatFace wrote:LMAO fuck you.

I know people that own Houses in the city and they can't wait to move into some condo on the outskirts. My one friend got a letter from the city storm drain backed up on his property, the city has to fix it within one week, $4000 dollars please. Luckily he had it in savings but seriously fuck that.GrumpyCatFace wrote:
Google and Youtube can get you through 90% of whatever you want to do. I'm personally amazed at all the shit I've accomplished around here.
And yeah, don't live in a city. That's just asking for trouble.
As for not living in the city, don't be racist, that's white flight and that is bad.

I don't think uniting the country would reduce spending, it might even lead to an increase in spending, because now more people agree on something to spend the money on.de officiis wrote:The politicians reflect their donors and constituents.

Yeah, no one is going to unite on oxen getting gored if it is their ox getting gored. In a democracy the best you can hope for that 50%+1 gores the other 49.StCapps wrote:I don't think uniting the country would reduce spending, it might even lead to an increase in spending, because now more people agree on something to spend the money on.de officiis wrote:The politicians reflect their donors and constituents.
