Pet Peeves

The Richard has many pet peeves the top one used to be lateness. Since his fiance is perpetually late he has gotten over that. Now the Richard is declaring a new top pet peeve. Ungratefulness. It's ugly and immature. Several years ago the Richard's grandfather started hiring a friends grandson for odd jobs. He was a nice kid, and since the Richard's grandfather was in a position to help, he helped this kid get into the carpenters union. It's a very good opportunity, good pay, excellent benefits and a great retirement package. When my cousin moved out of the upstairs apartment the Richard's grandparents offered it to Charlie because he needed a better apartment. Eventually we all became friends since both the Richard's father and brother were also union carpenters. Over the course of time the Richard and Charlue became rpommates. This week the Richard's father tried to give Charlie some advice, and in the course of giving advice an argument
ensued and harsh things were said, and tempers flared. Now it has been five days since the argunent and Charlie is still being an ass and it infuriated the Richard that he is being an ungrateful whelp. In an effort to resolve the situation he tried to talk to Charlie and the ass refused to have a conversation at this point the Richard thinks the best solution is to kick the living shit out of Charlie.

Free Markets

The Richard has long been a free market supoorter and believes that demand will influence supply. This is why the Richard is against forcing regulations on industry. This
article
article
on MSNBC is proof of the Richard's belief. Environmental regulations are unnecessary, people will demand change and suppliers will accomadate on their own. Forcing companies to do things will has not, nor will not get results. Fuel economy standards for example have not worked and will not work. Give fuel companies incentives and they will change. Give them tax relief, but do not give them demands and fines.
