Reply #48: Your lack of basic reading comprehension mystifies me... [View All]

Excuse me, but I never said that people hoarded cash in the Depression. Nor did I EVER suggest that
people during the Depression had as much money to work with--as people currently do now.

How in the world are you arriving at these bizarre misnomers about my post?

My post, and you may want to read it slowly--while you're not drinking---clearly stated that I am
concerned about "never being the same". I am concerned about being AFFECTED by our dire economic
times, just as those who experienced the Great Depression were forever AFFECTED by their experiences.

I'm not saying that today and 1929 are identical economic situations. I NEVER SAID THAT.

I'm not suggestion that my current struggles are EXACTLY what someone in the Great Depression experienced.

I'm saying that I feel changed. I feel that I will never be able to return to a time when I'm not
on a strict budget--because all of this has scared me. Just as the people who lived through the
GREAT DEPRESSION were changed by their experiences.

Got it?

Next time you want to attack someone and behave like a bully--telling them that they "don't have a clue"
and that you are "astounded" about how much they don't know---you might want to check your ego first--
and make damn sure that you've actually READ what they wrote and that you understand it.
