I will spend money on good shoes that will last a long time and be comfortable the whole time.

I very much doubt anywhere close half of the people in the US are stoners.

Man you're an idiot. You know that study was retracted because it was bogus. (the lab chow is used in many labs all over the world for rats and yet we don't see the same results in other strains of rats)

Being skinny isn't necessarily healthy, but being fat is never healthy.

In 50 years when the middle of the country is starved for water we're going to look back in complete horror at how much water we permanently polluted while harvesting natural gas and tar sand oil.

Not even remotely close.

The title is hilariously ironic (as it directly contradicts point 2), but with the exception of #7(people can definitely be racist against white people), #9 (that's true of anyone whose been here more than 2 generations), and #17(St. Patties Day comes to mind) those points are more or less true. The problem that I see with this article (judging from it's title and intro) is that the author's intent is to bring white people down instead of bringing everyone else up. That's not helpful to anyone, and is counter productive to what should be the ultimate goal of the betterment of society for *everyone*.

I usually wear leather shoes, but Chucks never go out of style. I'm not big on sneakers when I'm not working out, but if that's your thing then sure (you're 26, not 40)

This is really a question of do you prioritize short term economic growth at the expense of long term economic growth or vice versa.

Right now? 30k would cover everything easily. In the future I would definitely need/want considerably more, but right now I'm only responsible for myself and my meager lifestyle.
