There was a young man yesterday at the laundromat where thanks to a faulty washer at home I have been washing clothes. He was about 20-25 and he was pushing dollar bills into a changer to get change. The change machine spits half the coins out one side and half the coins out the other which he had not considered and did not see. Upon getting his fifty cents for a dollar bill he turned and said to his wife, “It takes fifty cents just to change a dollar here.” She accepted the fact as gospel and he proceeded to drop more dollars into the machine in exchange for fifty cents in return. His acceptence for such a thing was stunning to me. His voter bumper sticker read Obama with the Obama logo much like his clothes which read FuBu. I guess that about says it all.
