The Great Debt Debate Coffee – Decaf Please?
August 7th, 2011

Decaf vs. caffeine. Do we really want or need more caffeine? I mean, really now. It is confusing for the average working class, or out-of-work class, to wake up needing decaf and another day you wake up screaming, “Double the caffeine please!”
Most of those who scream, “Double the caffeine please!”, can’t afford Starbucks double espresso in the can even if purchased from Walmart. Four small cans, I mean small now, costs $6.00.
With our government seemingly on steroids we might have to go decaf. We might even have to grow our own coffee beans! How do you take the caffeine out coffee beans? I didn’t consider that point. It looks like we’re in for a lot of late night google searches, trying to figure out the answer on how to rid ourselves of caffeine.
The great debt debate is getting critically confusing. On one hand you have to speed things up. On the other hand, we need to slow things down.
It’s true the rich are needing to cut jobs, but is it because they are smart to keep what money they have or greedy to keep what money they have? It’s neither one or the other, it’s a mix of both.
And as for government spending, making gruesome cuts on the lowest class, well that just calls for more caffeine. I know several cancer patients from young families. Hospitals are no longer providing anything meaningful by way of assistance, and that wasn’t the case several years ago.
In this scenario you have a Daddy, even with a job, able to work ; and a Mommy making daily trips to the hospital with all 3 babies in hand. A simple family, not wanting or needing much, going through a literal hell, so that one baby can have a chemo treatment and the family can keep some kind of roof over their head. Never mind that they don’t have a second car. They can’t afford it!
Daddy’s job is good, he’s one of the lucky ones, sorta, kinda, maybe! It takes a lot to take care of a family right? And, on top of that, he actually works two jobs so he can keep the family semi-stable. The kids need school cloths, games, and yes Nike shoes (or the kids at school will make fun of them).
The assumption is this… we have to, instead of shopping retail, we end up in the thrift stores. It’s not “all good” as some would suggest.
The poorest class always takes the biggest blow. Pour me an espresso please! I can’t take this debate any longer!
