In Austria a man was just awarded $3,000 because a surgeon amputated the wrong leg. Meanwhile in the good old USA a woman was just awarded 10 million dollars from Walmart because she said the rusty nail she stepped on was in a Walmart aisle.

Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.

The man only got $3,000 for his leg because he was in his 70s and the AARP blue book said that's all it was worth.

The state with the worst overall performance ranking is New Jersey. It fell last in almost every measure of disbursements and fell near the bottom of the rankings for urban congestion.

These 10 states had the worst highway systems:

New Jersey Rhode Island Alaska Hawaii New York California Delaware Massachusetts Washington Florida

You don’t empty your pockets before washing your clothes? I used to tell my ex that any money I found when I was washing clothes was MINE. Lol.
I always empty my pockets. It's my wife that insists on leaving Kleenex in her pockets so that you get that "surprise" when you open the dryer door. I'm sure that picture was set up as a joke.

Only 3 Grand when a doctor removed the wrong leg? It cost the guy at least that in legal fees to change his name to Eileen...

If you cant make it in this country something must be wrong with you. I could be dropped by a helicopter anywhere in this country and have a job within 24 hours. Have a place to live within a week , Have my own business within a couple weeks

and be a millionaire within a decade.

you see immigrants ( mainly Asians and Indians ) do it almost every day.......but for some reason many, many generational Americans can not do it.
