Must be why my government provided water is billed for like 5 figs. Oh no wait, the most precious and desirable commodity in human history is pretty much free in America! Thanks, Obama?

I wonder why or how this could ever have happened!

Thanks, Obama.

Oh and btw you personify the snooty liberal who advocates for the poor yet has no regard for them or understanding for their situation. Get bent you little pecker.

Seriously I am waiting for you d'enfant, you have no idea how eager I am to see you twist yourself in knots to explain how that link makes perfect sense and fits into your pro-Democracy, LOLWaterIsBasicallyFreeDuh paradigm.

I see you've elected for neither. That's too bad, I was really hoping you were in a knot twisting mood this evening.

Nor should it be. Labor is required to get it out of a stream and into your tap.

Not sure which of us you are responding to here or I'd be happy to either rip you a new one or pat you on the back.

I'll just assume it is me since your post basically says nothing and has no point: what's your point again?

Let's cut to the chase, this is the kind of thing that drove people like borodog to near insanity. Libtards who have no point to make or clear ideology to defend (you can find mine easily on the Wikipedia article for ACism; do u have link pls for what you believe? is it democratic socialism?) who like to stroll in and say a whole bunch of nothing with a grin from ear-to-ear.

So, you agree with d'enfant when he says

since that's how we got on this whole Water tangent to begin with. I mean that's where you're coming from, that's why you've stuck your nose in the middle here, am I right about that? Not that the infant ever had much of a point at all, but let's just get you nestled comfortably into some sort of position here so that I can tear you apart. K?

Does that pretty much sum up your feelings on the matter?

For those who, after Aleppo-gate, wonder how Johnson would do in an actual debate, here's an arguably not so shining moment from the one debate he managed to get himself into for the 2012 primaries (from http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011...al-debate.html)

Governor Johnson, here in Florida, charter flights from Ft. Lauderdale to Havana, Cuba, have resumed. Is there a problem with that? And what are your thoughts on U.S.-Cuba policy?

JOHNSON: I think the biggest threat to our national security is the fact that we're bankrupt, so I am promising to submit a balanced budget to Congress in the year 2013, and included in that is a 43 percent reduction in military spending. I think it's crazy that we have foreign aid to company -- to countries when we're borrowing 43 cents out of every dollar to do that.

(APPLAUSE)

Military alliances -- military alliances are really key to other countries taking up the slack. With regard to flights to Cuba? You know, I'm -- I'm in favor, I think, of the whole notion that trade promotes friendship, as opposed to not. So I would be inclined to looking at establishing or supporting those kinds of flights.

BACHMANN: Bret? Bret?

BAIER: Governor Johnson, thank you.

Now...

BACHMANN: Excuse me, Bret? Could I weigh in on this?

BAIER: Congresswoman Bachmann?

BACHMANN: I'd like to weigh on this, because according to the State Department's website, there are four nations that are state sponsors of terror. Cuba is one of those nations. We would never have flights between the United States and Cuba. It's a state sponsor of terror.

And yet somehow I still do manage to overdraw an account once in awhile. I must be lol poor and financially illiterate. It's the only explanation!

I am duly shamed. I had no idea that talking about how normal, everyday people sometimes get hit with high banking fees would trigger dessin to take condescending personal shots. A truly shocking turn of events I never saw coming.

Actually you took condescending personal shots. If you had just said "well, I pay bank fees because I overdraft my account a few times a year" that would have been a fine answer to my question. You instead talked to me like a moron who doesn't understand the basics of having a checking account.

This debate took place in 2011, and personal sentiment aside it was in a nationwide republican primary debate. Johnson reminds me of the people in school who got right around 1000 on their SATs - remarkably unremarkable.

The "paying a bank" thing is a Zero Hedge conspiracy theory about how the globalists are trying to ban cash with negative interest rates and stuff, they don't mean fees. This forum is slipping if we haven't had threads about it.

Ally bank is just free. They also refund some ATM fees up to a monthly limit.

Also, who the hell overdraws their accounts? Just don't do that and use a credit card?

This. Personal finance is not hard.
09-10-2016 , 05:05 PM
Well people also complain about taxes, when the reality is if you make a decent salary it's actually very easy to pay a very low effective tax rate.

If you are on assistance or unemployment in PA you get a Visa debit card that will be charged a fee at pretty much every ATM you can find.
