The proof was in my daughter's eyes on Christmas when she opened the box and saw her new Holiday Barbi. She loved it and it cost less than @ the target where I work. Enough said.

These seem to pump out of the same machine every six years or so, including my personal favorite- Why Jesus Will Return by 1988. Look, we get it ok? The Uber,, "upper class" is and has forever been screwing us, with the logical end result of the enslavement of the so called "middle" class until the final joke to end all jokes is revealed- namely that there never WAS a "middle" class and that it was a uniquely American ruse that there ever was one. Finally, the cold potato that we must all eventually swallow is that the term "middle class" is just a pacifier that we, the 99 percent in the "lower class" use to try and hold onto the shreds of our dignity. Don't believe it? Use this test: If we are the middle class and the "upper class" is known to be defined as the top 1 percent, would somebody please point to the other 49 percent of all the people out there who have LESS financial security than you and your family do? I'll wait... And oh, by the way, it's not another invisible sub-class out there that is living from paycheck to paycheck, who couldn't come up with $400 in an extreme emergency WITHOUT borrowing from family, selling something or incurring more debt from one of those legalized juice loans called the payday advance loans (relax pal, it's only 47 percent interest PER WEEK). Just don't get sick, you won't get out of the hospital for less than $10,000 for a three night stay in a semi-private. And that's assuming that nothing's wrong with you. Need surgery? Then I've got some bad news for you. And oh, by the way, your 28 hrs a week second job called- you're out of sick time and have thus subjected yourself to discipline (when you return). And don't you DARE try to do all this as a woman or you'll be doing it with 1.7 kids and all for 30-35 percent per hour less than everybody else in the "middle" class. Wake up, will ya pal? You're a SLAVE. You're no better than that guy (it used to be two guys- what happened to the other guy?) who empties your garbage cans every Monday morning. But don't worry. Your company needs you. You'll be training the new kid- what's his name again? "Rizwan Naymuddin" to do your job next week? Hmmm. I wonder where they are going to put him? Ah, nothing to worry about. You're in the Middle Class, after all. By the way, did you hear about that court ruling about five years ago that says that all corporations are "people" now?
