why work 2 fast food jobs when you could just go get 1 good job? why work 1 fast food job when you are older than 18? maybe it's just me but i have NO interest in working fast food jobs. magnify that statement if i had kids to take care of. you need more money so the answer is grab onto that 2nd burger flipper? nope. what is ignorant is that she actually had a fix for the government haha...to "limit the price of gasoline" hahaha....silly. she's got the world's problems down though her own are spotlighted. silly silly silly.

it's scary to think that oil has even the slightest possibility of renaming our country "new rome". but i suppose if i'm worried about economic collapse, or collapse of any sort that there have always been much more prevalent entities to cling to...

Hey it's honest work...perhaps there is nothing in her town except the service sector. The ghost of past factory jobs in the NE used to be a staple of the economy...but thousands of jobs have been outsourced since the investor class found out that if you hire pauper wages in other countries you can have fatter returns on your investments.
