I got my car when used car prices were up because I had no choice, so yeah there’s no excuse for that shit.
- Comment on $1,000 car loan payments are on the rise, stressing household budgets 1 week ago:
Not justifying these people but there are legitimate reasons some people can’t buy the cheapest possible car, like family size and capacity needs.
I own a subcompact because we’re a family of 3 with a small to mid sized dog. We live in a very urban area so the smaller car is definitely a boon in most cases.
- Comment on $1,000 car loan payments are on the rise, stressing household budgets 1 week ago:
The US is almost devoid of subcompacts. Because when gas prices go down stupid people decide they don’t need them and buy bigger vehicles.

No non-standard device will have a good camera.
There are those small android devices. Word is that those discourage constant attention because it’s not as pleasant to use. But you can still get basic stuff when you need it.
If you went with something like that or e-ink you’d probably want to get a decent pocketable point and shoot.

I was just saying that there are motivations to go to poorer countries outside of cultural experiences and that those draw conservatives and just about everyone else.

No, not how closely. How LOUDLY they follow Christianity. Real Christians wouldn’t vote for Trump or most of the GOP.

Conservatives visit poorer countries all the time because they can afford a more lavish vacation there. People’s time is cheaper to purchase.
