Oh there are all kinds of wheels that fit the Model T. My great-grandpa, when he died, had a total of 3 Model Ts in his garage. One was a '16 Touring in nice shape, another was a little "buggy" Model T built to resemble a boat-tail race car from the early days, and another was an unrestored heap. The race car had…
It can be made to seem more complicated for TV if that's the point you're trying to convey. I admit, I haven't actually driven one, but I've been shown how to and driven around in multiple Model Ts. It's not all that difficult, but it is definitely a different experience from a modern car.
First, how about we tone down the name-calling and knee-jerk reactions, okay?
Better. Now, as you pointed out, the article says that the car did not properly navigate the slope when trying to return to the pavement from being pulled over and letting cars pass and a spoke collapsed. Now, look at the context of the post…
If a public calls "conspiracy" against a Govt official stories, its most likely true.
You want a conspiracy?
this is the type of moron detroit has been electing for 50 years...and they wonder why they are in the shape they in.
I like this Tom Barrow guy- finally someone speaks 'da 'truf! He sounds right for Detroit. Obama saved Detroit already, he said so. Romney was the bad guy that didn't want to save Detroit- that shining city on the hill (well, about 60% still shines). I know that 40% non-operational street light number is a lie (it's…
Math is a conspiracy. Reality is a conspiracy. Solvency is a conspiracy.
Your kidding right? This is one of the great steering wheels!
I was thinking the same thing.
Is it just me or does the top grill take after Lexus' spindle design?
The current admin in Washington has been blaming its predecessors for the economy for 5 years now. Is that OK?
Detroit's economy was dependent on manufacturing; not the tech sector (e.g. Silicon Valley). Apples to oranges comparison you're trying to make. Texas isn't liberal. There's also no income tax in Texas or Washington. Washington is home to Amazon, Starbucks, Costco, Microsoft etc. That attracts intelligent and…
I also like to point out how the Income Tax was implemented in WWI in 1916 as a temporary measure to pay for the combat. Maybe I haven't been following the news, but I think WWI is over already.
Your last two sentences were extremely well put, hadn't thought of it that way.
SS is absolutely a Ponzi scheme. Literally word for word. But the worst part of it all, is that we're all forced to participate in it. In the private sector we have laws to help prevent and terminate these schemes. The govt has nothing of the sort. When the program was introduced in 1935, the tax rate for the…
That is the common thread in all of these insolvencies. Like it or not socialism is a fiscal dead end.
60 years of debt and corruption in Detroit was brought on by Democratic mayors.
That's a valid point, while I maintain that it's very similar to a ponzi scheme, to call it literally identical to a ponzi scheme is simply not supported.
The problem is that 'politics' affects our lives every single day, whether we actively pay attention to it or not.
Yeah the Democrats have been doing their best to run Atlanta into the ground. The last few mayors (I know i'm going to get flak for this, but I live just outside atlanta so I can say this damn it) got in because of their complexion. instead of sound policy and ability to govern.
