But you could have gotten in the good vault.

One change they suggested was to limit the audits performed each year to one. A single person whose name was drawn at random gets an intensive Mega-Audit™

Things are permanently fucked. Inflation will go up on goods, deflation will keep lowering the value of the dollar. Shipments are being rejected at the ports on both sides. You couldn't have screwed things worse for small - mid businesses short of a nuclear war. The GOP was efficient with destroying our economy this time.

You got to buy a car somehow. When I was 16 I got a job a McDonald's just to do that. Took me 6 months of saving at $4.25/hr. to purchase a $2000 1979 Ford Bronco. Got 6 miles to the gallon and gas was around $.50/gallon. Insurance was around $25/mo. All of this and 4-6 CDs per payday was feasible on that pay.

Hate driving, been doing it 30 years now, sucked the whole time. There's nothing like a thorough train/subway system.

 

I just got spun, it's great.
