No ignorance. I wouldn't complain about people who are losing their houses and whatnot complaining. What galls me is someone who's biggest problem is cutting back thier lawn service and feeling they merit some sort of special report because they are feeling the financial pressure.

People are losing everything, losing all they have worked hard for, and this woman feels special because she gave up the (probably illegal mexicans) that were mowing her lawn?

I guess this thread was just a little too subtle for many of you.
