Consumer confidence falls sharply

[Gary and Alla 3,694]

You're a big boy Gary, I'm sure you can manage your own finances and spending.

This is just nonsense and you fail on 3 levels: To be relevant, intelligent or humourous.

Really Gene? You are sure I can manage my own finances? we agree again. Sorry, I was under the impression you were one of those that thought the government could take my money against my will and manage it better than me, I am so glad to learn you are not that way. Like, healthcare, for example. why would the government be able to handle my health care, and that of my family better than me? I know...crazy thought isn't it? I mean, who could magine...big boys and girls managing their "Grown-up scarey stuff", like finances and healthcare decisions and spending all by themselves.

You are gradually coming around.

Nice attempt at a segue there. Shame it is completely irrelevant - but carry on.

Are you following me around again, Gene?

so Gene, rather than me guessing, why not tell us...

Who is better at spending our own money...ourselves or the government?

That's about as much thought as you put into these issues, isn't it.
