It was in the way you intended it, doofus. Funny thing is you're likely about as close there is to a liberal.

I was merely pointing out how mandates against peoples will cause pushback from the people. How you let the market dictate what direction things should go, and that we’re American, not French or Chinese.

You took the thread down the toilet. Now it will probably be closed and locked. Congrats.

I would have believed you had you said : "I'm tryna come over to Michigan to get raped in the a$$." More believable than I'm in Michigan to pick up a car.

And that's exactly what I said in my original post, and you responded :

"Stuff like that leads to things like Jan 6 , just saying ...."

...

The thread will get cleaned up and it won't get deleted. Now everyone should get back on topic.

Stating facts is a lot different from calling people derogatory names and cussing out people because you don’t get it.

Too funny. We’ll probably pass in opposite directions on I-94. Glad I ain’t in the middle of your and Raging Hawk’s drama.

Some of you guys... Tsk, tsk.



Come on, let's keep the political name calling out. We can do better than CorvetteForum.

If you want my opinion on any political movement... Remember that you should never take any of them at face value. There is always something deeper in those things that none of us are meant to understand.

It only becomes a problem when you are one of those people who need that dopamine hit when you buy crap you don't need and you only buy it for the sake of buying something new.

I try to be conservative with most of my purchases that aren't related to my hobbies. It could get a little difficult at times in this pandemic but once you just sit down and think for 3 minutes on if you really need it, it's actually not that bad.

And if you expect lifestyle changes to people, IMO that should really happen naturally, not being forced as mentioned before.

That’s all I’m saying.

It’s just like family sedans. 20 years ago as the SUV craze was beginning family sedans were still the main line of products by every manufacturer. As SUVs got more popular and demand for sedans went down, automakers made the decision to eliminate most or all of their sedan production. It happened based on the market demand.

That’s all.

If in 2000 mfgs said “in 20 years we’re eliminating family sedans and you’re not going to be able to buy one”, people would have been upset and it would have been bad PR to their customers.
