Our Republican strategy of opposition to anything he proposes is starting to bear fruit. It's unfortunate that the modern farming system is essentially immune from disruption, precluding the famine that would surely show the bankruptcy of 'Bama leadership.

Nuts with the"obamanomics" guys.
I posted that about West Marine because I dont' feel they should go out of business, but figure out a way to survive in a down economy. It seems that Overtons, and Cabella, are doing just fine, and they share a lot of the product line. Losing business, and the jobs it supports is never a good thing and shouldn't be ill wished upon by anyone. |

They have a great selection, especially stainless hardware, but a small premium will keep customers going there for the convience, but when you can buy zincs online for 50% of WM price, that is out of the convience level. |

Isn't that the object of business... or at least one of them... not go out of business, increase profit/market share? Maybe they have some underlying problems that are causing them problems... don't know much about them specifically, but their customer service seemed pretty good when I was looking for a gift.

Must suck to be you...an ex-pat who can't afford to return to the USA. Does not suck to be me at all. 100% of my pension is directly in my name. I do not have to worry about pension write downs nor do I factor in the need for government pension. So if government does not raise social security (CPP in Canada), or the union pension goes bust or takes a write down, I don't have to worry. So you were a civil servant, explains a lot. -- -------------- Politicians don't provide anything, the tax payers do. |
