-I was expecting the book to be expensive.-I couldn't watch it because I can't stand how horrible the acting is on SNL, but I was expecting the same thing. |

How about we all do our own work and make what we need? It's called surviving... People have done it before then they got lazy... |

"Money's a dumb concept.Hey, let's give pieces of paper to people for stuff so they can have pieces of paper for people for their stuff. Why that's genius and in no way can that take a turn for the worse..." So whats the alternative then? Just let people have what they want? Then people wouldn't do jobs because there's no need for money.
Either that or ration everybody to have the same things. Money is the only way. |

A whole industry in the US relies on normal people getting more debts than they can ever afford. In fact customers that can't afford to pay back are the best customers because they are yours forever. And everybody is working towards it to bankrupt the average citizen. We still have to learn so much from you oh glorious USA *G* |

OMFG! If only that book were real I'd buy it for my boyfriend! I've always thought that buying things ONLY if you have the money was a general principle that everyone knew. Apparently, I was wrong. :) |

Her voice was annoying. I'm... *sigh* If only it weren't such a truth. Not only the concept of 'credit' in America but the fact we need books to tell us pretty basic concepts.. oh god, I think someone moved my cheese, now what do I do!??! ...yeah. |
