Theft is now considered to be a way of life, Hell, because Frank is a white nationalist and rides a bike, all bike shops therefore become targets.

Theft has been a way of life at least as long as there've been humans.
Heck, that's what keeps the "financial industry" profitable- steal from
the poor, give to the rich. And then buy enough congresspeople to use
the tax system to steal from the middle class to give to the rich. It's
a great system... if you're already rich.

Tim, what is apparent is that you're not a financial whiz. VERY few "rich" remain that way through the length of their lives. In fact since Trump came into office the lowest end of the top 10% income earners has risen from $138,000 to about $160,000.

The problems is that most large cities are ruled by the looney Democrats. California is almost entirely leftist. That means that you will only have two groups - the super-rich (top 1%) and the poor to very poor.

If you live in a large city the only view you will have is of people living in hovels over most of the city with homeless encampments and a few very small areas of the rich who the police spend all of their time protecting.

Just 20 years ago it wasn't this way. Johnson started it with his "War on Poverty" - giving black women money to not work - IF there was no man in the household. And they actually used to have civil servant investigate your home looking for men's clothing in the closets and things like that.

It took 50 years to bring us to the state we're presently in. And the Republican states are the one's that are becoming home to the middle class. You want wrack and ruin then by all means continue a socialist policy in your state.

One can only speculate on why the poor allow themselves to be stolen
from so greatly. After all "po folks" in the U.S., as defined by the
government, has a car and air conditioning, two color televisions,
cable or satellite TV, a DVD player, and a VCR.

But of course one NEEDS two TV's, satellite TV, DVD player and VCR,
doesn't one?

I just realized that we only have one TV, no satellite or cable TV, no
DVD player and no VCR... we must be poor!
