With regard to "America has never been richer" lets compare what the average American has today compared to what the average American had in the 50's.

Americans in the 50"s

No Air Conditioning No televisions - few if any had them No Air Conditioned schools No IPODS No IPADS No Cell Phones No $150,000 ambulances No tactical police units I could go on and on but I think the point has been made.

what you see in the cartoon is not the head - it is the other end of the alimentary canal

If emotional platitudes were fact, I suppose you would be right.

Show me a statistic? Show me a fact? Show me some sort of attempt at measuring the wealth that indicates what you say?

Hmmmm. Define wealth for your purposes.

GDP? Arguable.

Monetary value? Ill defined.

Bank deposits? inaccurate.

Define your terms, instead of appealing to emotion and bitching about responses in kind..

I think you are one of the most incompetent people on the face of the planet. Why do I have to define wealth? I'm only questioning the original cartoon, and the onus is on me to define what I mean? How about SOMEBODY explain what the cartoon is supposed to mean, if it's indicating any sort of fact? I'm not the one who posted nonsensical jibberish, purported as fact.

It's not my responsibility to explain what the original poster was intending.

Glad to be of service....................:)

Now will you define your terms?

I get it, you don't understand cartoons, but really.

Know your limitations.

LOL - did you strike a nerve?

The fishes in his brain did a back flip.......although the comment about him not posting nonsensical gibberish?.....................That was a classic lie................LOL

[-] 2 points by DKAtoday (33802) from Coon Rapids, MN 12 years ago

gibberish - I thought that that was all he was posting. Good to know I am not the only one who thinks so. {:-])

Wait - there was a cartoon?

Call FLAKESnews. I'm sure they could provide you with one suitable to your purposes.

Except this cartoon says that Fox says we're broke?

So I'd assume you'd have proof to the contrary??

Or you're unable to read and see every post as a chance to spout complete nonsense?

[-] 0 points by shoozTroll (17632) 12 years ago

FLAKES just makes stuff up as they go along, just like you.....:)

They can do it for you. You're on their side.

So c'mon, show us the FLAKES chart that proves your pointless point.
