I can explain. Mississippi includes an advelorem tax element to the price of car tags. As a result, the price of a car tag on a decent new car can sometimes be over $1000 per year. The custom tag fee is a $53 adder.

When you are paying over $1000, an extra $53 is not much by comparison.

I've always heard specialty/personalized tags were $60 more in the 'Sip, but folks are probably just rounding up when they say that.

Is this the organization that puts out commercials wanting you to give money to support starving Jewish widows?

Who would give to this? Jews have the highest standard of living of any group in the world, let them take care of their own.

Fun fact, she was once on the tractor and came across a cotton mouth. She went to kill it with a hoe she kept with her and pulled a disc in her back that resulted in surgery which then resulted to other issues that was eventually caused her to die.

I sleep with ear plugs in quite a bit. It's no bother at all, at least for me.

I do too, but due to tinnitus, I also run white noise while sleeping.

Do you need to divide this up demographically though? In the southern black female culcha there's absolutely no shame in being fat, in fact, some consider it desirable. The % of obese southern black women far exceeds other races.

Boomers were literally handed EVERYTHING on a silver platter based on what happened in WW2. The greatest generation fought the war and the boomers reaped every reward of that war victory.

You have to be a deeply ignorant buffoon to actually believe this.

You idiot, they worked hard for it, there were no handouts (unlike today), everything they had they earned it and paid cash. They didn't buy cars they couldn't afford, didn't buy $7 cups of coffee most started out in tiny starter homes. Most of their parents were influenced by the depression and hardships of WW2, they didn't coddle their kids and most didn't have anything near the disposable income we have today.

Give me an example of what they were given on a sliver plater. They were given nothing, they worked hard, put up with a ton of shite and earned it.

I'll wait for your response, but I doubt you able to list things they were "given." Folks today don't understand that thru the 80s, no one was given anything, everything was earned.

Boomers are going down as the worst generation in existence. They were handed everything and literally said frick them kids when it was time to set up future generations. They fricked EVERYONE that came after them.

---

Tell me what they did or didn't do?

Boomers were handed absolutely nothing, worked decades in soul crushing jobs will no complaints, paid gobs of taxes, obeyed the law, were great citizens, were smart spending money, saved, raised families in mostly two parent homes. Later Boomers were too easy on their kids and gave them too much (GenX is also guilty of this), which lead today's generation of parents/young people who have little concept of self discipline, accountability and wisely spending money.

People could disagree about stuff back then and still be friends.

Now politics is more like a religion for some people.

If you don’t endorse all of their ideas, thoughts, actions, you must be canceled.

I say this all the time.

It started with 24 hour news, when news had to be invented to fill time. To get more ratings, outrage had to be flamed. Social media has made that much worse.

Unfortunately that division will never reunite. Just too many things that each side is not willing to budge on. We need to just get the next civil war behind us, because we can't continue as a country as we are going now.

---

I don't foresee a civil war, the country is just going to get more and more shitty. One side or the other is eventually going to seize complete control of the country. Once true democracy and freedom are gone, the race to the Botton will intensely.

What are you expecting a “come together” to look like? We are a nation of neighborhoods and localities. Go experience the world with those people and don’t wait for some news article showing a group together at a monument.

What? I'll assure you I've been to more states and countries than you.

In 76, small towns all over the country came tother and had parades and events. Chevy released a bicentennial edition truck.

I was just hoping the country would come together, we've let social media and the 24 news divide us and made us hate each other.
