I sorta feel like this is the laziest article I have ever seen written for Jalopnik. There has to be SOME reason you are bringing this up that you didnt mention...

Ok, so, when I worked at a Kia dealership, I saw first hand what sugar does to a modern car.

Chevy HHR? There’s your first problem...

Wake me up when dealerships stop being a useless and arbitrary middle man to the car buying process (which is already grossly moronic for new cars, unless you enjoy throwing away 30% of an item’s value upon purchase). Of course they should go above and beyond, you’re throwing away money on products they don’t even…

They receive a small percantage of gov’t funding and the vast majority from elsewhere. They may be educational but it looks like they didn’t teach you to do research.

Have you been on a cruise? The whole thing is a brig.

PBS receives approximately 12% of its funding from the federal government.

So, you mean, immoral greedy fucks that just watch the PBS broadcasting without donating to it...? Oh, you are considering everyone else’s tax dollars as your donation... Got it.

Other people should be forced to fund something you enjoy?

Why don’t you and the people who enjoy it fund it? Either through advertisements or their shitty fund raisers?

I’m not entirely clear why there’s a need for government funded television anymore. What makes any of their programming different than what any other station can provide? There’s no reason those shows can’t be on other channels and vice-versa. In fact, some are.

Netflix makes some great shows without taking my tax money to do it.

Lets look at some PBS content to discover why some non-immoral non-greedy fucks want to defund federal spending on PBS:

It absolutely should be defunded. While they do produce some quality programming, they are far from the only ones. Why spend taxpayer dollars on this when there is so much quality programming out there? What’s the point?

I actually think the police should not be allowed to discharge their firearms unless they’ve already been fired upon (or in certain cases such as where a clear threat to civilians has been made and attempts to de-escalate have failed, et cetera).

A lot of cars could actually pull this if they had enough traction. It’s not pulling that’s the issue with cars towing things, it’s stopping.

More importantly, if you’re set on rolling your suspension, just buy a lesser model and save yourself the sheckels.

How in the blue hell do we have 3 Cars movies and a Cars spinoff before anything else related to the Incredibles has come to light?

Ha everyone knows you don’t waste your money on winter tires, you get AWD and the cheapest “all season” tires you can and drive around thinking AWD makes you invincible. And you do such a good job of convincing everyone of this your wonderful consumer advice makes it way to Southern California where people now believe…

I’m embarrassed to say I’ve done exactly this. Reversed my car into a cement planter at force while moving into my new house on a hundred degree day with a hangover.
