"Your call. But please spend at least some of your PFD on something that benefits the bottom line. Things will get more expensive, not less, in the coming year."
Hmm.... Life already got -$1000 more expensive in 2016 thanks to a bunch of stuffed suits bearing oil company logos walking their pet legislators, having them lift their legs on us and then started the blame-ball throwing that absolves neither the Legislature nor the Governor, but sure keeps the public pointing fingers at either or both as Draco's Law comes to town. And the Oily suits are silent in the shadows, admiring their surreptitious handiwork and winking (oinking silently) with their pals in the "Usual Suspects" gang. The Spit and Argue Club is alive and well.
God help us, they've broken into the Vault.
