housing allowance, the two boys have a slight mental problem, we get
extra cash for them, free medical, the kids get free breakfast and lunch
at school, and it's all tax free.
We live on 40 grand and we don't need to worry about getting up
in the morning. I even fix a car now and then for some tax free
spending money. America is a great country.

Those imaginary children of yours didn't ask to be brought into this
world. Too bad the conservatrashers are so opposed to family planning
and abortion, eh?


I think if you took a vote of conservatives you would find the number
that oppose birth control to be less than 20%. Abortion would be higher
but there are even liberals that don't like abortion.
I'm an economic conservative but pro choice, even though it is not a
great thing to rely on.
btw, the government has created way to many incentives to not work and
to many disincentives to create work.

The truck driver has to feed himself each day, wether he is driving or

Do you seriously not understand the difference in dollars, buying
prepared food on the road, or cooking your own at home? When we go
racing, we easily save $50 bucks a day by brown bagging compared to other
teams... It's a lot different working and living on the road and trying
to eat well, than it is stuffing in carbs on vacation or on a long weekend...


You travel for business, you learn to eat reasonable. You do not go out to
the 3 star eateries.



Traveling for business and driving a long-haul truck on the interstates
doesn't mean you eat at the same places. The truck drivers are pretty
much limited to eating at truck stops, where their rigs can be parked,
fueled, accommodated. Some truck stops offer a wide variety of food and
some have that food at decent prices but even so, eating three hots a day
while driving a big rig isn't inexpensive. If you are driving your car,
you can easily get off the interstate and find the kind of place you'd
prefer to eat that will accommodate you and your car. On the interstates
around here, "Cracker Barrel" restaurants seem very popular at all three
meal times, but you rarely see the big truck rigs in their parking lots
because those lots are not built to handle those sorts of vehicles. A
decent meal at Cracker Barrel runs $10-$12, easily. A similar meal at a
truck stop likely is more expensive.

Do you ever leave home? What is the cheapest decent meal you can find on
the road? What do you actually consider "reasonable" compared to the
average 4 dollars or so per meal Jess and I can "brown bag" on the road?

$17,000,000,000,000 in debt and still more than half the elected
officials want to spend more. Stop the madness!

I think your guess about the number of conservatives who oppose birth
control is way too low. Oh, and I don't know anyone who *likes*
abortion. The ability to obtain a safe abortion, however, is a
necessity, something the overwhelming majority of those on your side of
the fence do not believe.

It's hard to control women if they have control over their bodies, eh?

LOL,


I probably travel more than you. And over the years traveled a lot for
business. Business travel included an expense account, but I still did not
overspend for meals. I am well to do, and still eat at diners and truck
stops. Driving a crew cab pickup and towing 25' of trailer, makes parking
a chore. I still get out for $20 for two of us most the time. Seems as if
there are a lot of truckers on the road, surviving well on their pay. But
more are needed. But seems as if a lot of people figure society will take
care of them. Pay their medical bills, pay their rent, food stamps and
welfare payments to eat from.

Two people, twenty bucks, three times a day does not work for a working
slob who doesn't have an expense account and won't be home in his warm
bed on Thursday night.... The point is, you spend ten dollars a meal
when you are on the road all the time, and it's much more expensive than
eating at home cooking your own meals... Why is that so difficult for
you to understand? 60 dollars a day is what your *expense
account* spent, instead of 15-18 or so when we brown bag it and we eat
better than anybody at the track....
