Thanks for the name calling, I really appreciate that. First of all, you do not even know most of us but yet again here we are all being grouped together. So since I am a rich, spoiled, your know what you said... that has never been told I couldn't have something, I will fill you in. This is not a sob story this is life and maybe it will put it in to perspective just how we are common people too. My dad died when I was a baby, and my mom raised three kids by herself, working as a clerk for my whole life. Nothing has been handed to me. I know what Welfare cheese and peanut butter taste like and I was very happy to have it. Instead of asking for expensive toys at Christmas one of my priorities was always new jeans. But I would never wish to have grown up any other way !!! I graduated high school and immediatly joined the armed forces for 9 years. I have since earned an associates, bachelors and soon to be masters degree, all on my own. Nothing has every been handed to me. So before you go and place us all in the same grouping, maybe you should know who you are talking about. I have a large boat because I could not afford a lake house, not even a lot because of the real estate prices. The lake is the one thing for my family to truly enjoy and to build memories. I am ashamed that you feel that you feel that we are handed everything, because last time I checked this is the only way for us to be able to spend a weekend at the lake and still have some of the pleasures of home.
I also like how you voice "There are way more people out there that wants these boats gone than there are that want these boats to stay"... I take it that you are a statistician now and you have taken a poll... funny I wasn't contacted.
