Tires should last 30k+ under normal conditions. lmao, bone stock sw20 mr2s didn’t get 30k on a set of rear tires. owners manual said expect to get 15-20k and thats no where near the same performance of a gt-r. youre not buying a performance car to worry about tires. ---

Think all you want you’re failing to make the connection. Yours saying money doesn’t buy long term happiness. Yet a good portion of middle class especially the upper middle class has good money, good savings and a nest egg retirement. You know what retirement money is? It’s the definition of long term happiness. You instead of debating that point are bringing up a statistic on a rags to richess story and using that tiny anomaly as your logic back up. This is the same thing you do in every argument - huge logic leap with no facts to back you up or huge generalizations coming from very limited events. So no, you don’t think. ---

Wal-Mart business practices are immoral and the fact that they make the workers live in poverty and thus causing them to use the government for financial assistance while the company boasts record profits and the CEOs own more than the bottom 30% of Americans is a travesty.
