I'm not "comparing" anything, and neither is the post I quoted. Your perspective on my little "ding ding ding" post is more shallow than the post was intended to be.
Actually, my wife and I are doing fine. We've paid off several bills, quickly gotten off unemployment (even though, legally speaking, we didn't have to) and I've begun my own enterprise. Not nearly what I was making before, but we live frugally, and it is enough to live on.
However, I'm not sure why you think my occupational status had anything to do with my post. I am, and continue to be, a free market kind of person, so any "revolution" I would want would be about LESS intervention into the lives of the average person, not more. That includes what a person can, and cannot, drink.
The fact that there seems to be grounds for something as harmless as a caffeinated malt beverage to be illegalized in some states is asinine. That precedent, not the action itself, is what the "revolution" comment was all about.
Your point was indeed clear. It was simply misguided, based on the fact that you clearly did not understand what was being said.
No matter. I'm sure you've justified your comments to yourself, so I won't spend any time trying to quarrel with you over it further.
Honestly, if I was you, I'd have a well thought out argument too. With your wife, I'd be drinking at least four of these fuckers every night before bed.
