But then again, I must point out it is a movie, a work of fiction, based in pre-depression America. About 100 years ago robbie.
Bonasera, Bonasera, what have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? If you'd come to me in friendship, the scum who ruined this thread would be suffering this very day. And if by some chance an honest person like yourself made enemies they would become my enemies. And then, they would fear you.

Some day, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day, consider this post a gift on my daughter's wedding day.

Now THAT sounds like freedom to me ! 🙄

As of 2011, there were about 27 million small businesses in the United States, employing ...[text shortened]... mpose that sort of thing (using your words) [b]IS

Ah yes, the "America is so special it cannot possibly be compared to any other society in the world to any degree"-argument again. Very convincing.
