What Bell Curve?

Standard
Blurry but still would you want to upgrade?

We have all been there

Deciding if that couch is too old

Those shoes have seen better days

The pan that just looks like it has had it last day

However what stops us from upgrading?

Economy?

It is just too much right now, unable to buy a new one.

Sentiment?

This pan has cooked every meal I ever made, ain’t giving it up now.

My gave me that, I can’t get another one.

Denial?

What is wrong with that pan looks fine to me, just cooked with it last night.

If it is sentiment or denial this isn’t designed for you.

However if it is economic well listen up I may support what you are already thinking.

The economy is getting tighter and as we make sure we have enough money for this and that we are stretching the bell curve so much it is a line.

Think about it, the middle class where most of us could afford a home on a single or dual salary now needs second jobs for both parents.

Heck, more generations are living together not because of emotional needs but because of social economic problems.

Since gas has gone up there has been something else we should have bought but say sorry not right now.

If you are that positive person you make do, improvise.

Maybe you shop at Ross rather than Macys, if you shopped at Ross maybe now the Goodwill.

Does that mean you wanted to stop shopping at Macys?

Really you just do what you have to do to get by.

You say it is what it is but yet you didn’t get this year like you normally have.

But you can’t complain so you just deal with it.

Hence you slid down the curve and fell into the lower class extremity.

Whereas there were just a few of you who could keep up with the Jones’s. Buying something new every season.

The bell curve is gone or at least more of a small bump than a full on mountain.

So why oh why does media say well that is just what they like, they live that way.

However for most of society they would recognize when the pan needs replacing, or the couch is just too worn.

We are a very make do society but for most US citizens we didn’t buy the lesser quality product or replace it because we thought it was better we bought it because we couldn’t buy what we actually wanted.

Seriously, most Americans want nice things, we just can’t afford it anymore.

A Week

Standard

It has been a week

Since

Having seen one news source or any news source

Listened, viewed or heard about any social algorithm

Having any social events

It is now

Living alone, being alone

So all that is written here is pure imagination and thought

Treaties or the future of Americans

Standard

We have been told by Trump

You will get everything you need.

You don’t need retirement Trump will provide for you.

This is where you will work and live.

Even Google states Trump says

Of course I am skeptical.

But then I was reminded of the Native American treaties and look what they were promised when moving to reservations and living the colonial life.

To be put in certain social media circles.

To only buy from certain businesses.

To only have certain friends because all others are toxic.

Sounds like we were put on reservations and are being promised the same thing Native Americans were.

Including loyalty, if you are loyal to Trump, Trump will pardon all your indiscretions.

Didn’t Trump say he would protect us just like they said to the Native Americans

They made Native Americans change their hair, their clothes, their language and still the government broke the treaties.

I don’t know about you but something stinks of skunk and it is Trump.

Fumbles

Standard

We have all said the wrong thing.

Was it because we didn’t know

the people

Or

new information

Was it because of our

Freudian slip

mood

timing

Our state of mind

Lack of attention

Or

The wrong thing to say at the wrong time.

Whatever the reason

We have made our apologies

But question is

Do you think everything was purposeful

Or

Accident?
