The chief business of the American people is...

"The chief business of the American people is business."

Calvin Coolidge (1872 - 1933), Speech in Washington, Jan. 17, 1925

recently, swaying on subway, looking up, at poster:
" America runs on Dunkin' " . . .

business, business.. America go! go! go!

...

people "getting paid". . . heh-heh. . .

"doing stuff" to "get paid"

"get degrees".. "get paid"..

"getting paid" to like, 'pay rent' and.. 'get food' and stuff..

then there's like 'insurance' and.. 'mortgage'..

so like.. gotta.. work more - keep like, 'getting paid' and stuff..

'get paycheck' from boss..

buy groceries.. -

clip coupons though - so that you get deals - and save money..

eat stuff that's like not really good for your health - like, cheap stuff - say, cereal for dinner - I used to do that in college - to save money - have like.. bread..

now though it's like.. dude, to 'save a few bucks' you're like, putting cheap stuff into body to 'save some dough' - but it's like, detrimental to your health - so like it's like you like harm your physical body to save like.. paper bills.. aaah the current system we allow..

these days I buy health food - because like, while I believe we have souls and spirits and all, physical bodies like go a long way in helping us to like do stuff and stuff..

what do you think - how do you feel - about the current system
