Hardcore Pawn show on TRU channel

[shark]

Anybody watch that show? comes on Tues at 9 p.m.
Detroit pawn shop, that has a largely black customer base.
Casino , is nearby too. Last nite a guy hocked his diamond rings to get gambling money, he goes and sometimes wins , most of the time he loses. He won 3600 tax free, comes back and gets his diamond rings, goes back to the craps table. I got to thinking everything he wins is not taxed, he doesn't have a real job, and when he goes to hospital who pays the bills ? Poor slobs who work and has their own insurance and pay a fortune for is the one who pays for these lazy lizards whenever they get sick. They just go on Medicaid. Ones who pay in are paying for all the deadbeats. Why our insurance is almost 4 figures a month and that's with a high deductible. Think we're on the wrong side of the fence.

Didn't know they had casinos in Detroit...but, hey, with General Motors....what is one to expect?

If you lose your job, you don't take up gambling surely to God.
You find another job or move to where there is jobs.

Unless you are a democrat, you sit parked where you are and whine, waiting for government to come to your rescue.

My career wasn't going as well as I wanted so what did I do about it? I learned a new skill set that I could market and moved to where there was more opportunity.

The sad thing is that the whiners and bellyachers will always vote for the opportunistic politicians who exploit their resentments for votes.

There's 2 of those shows. Pawn Stars on History channel and Hardcore Pawn on Tru channel.
Yeah, I like poor chumley too. Big ol' kid.

Your right ol' rip.....giving you the high 5 LOL

Just makes me sick, people make their living by gambling and spending it on diamond rings to hock and die poor and on somebody else's dollar. Medicaid is sucking this country dryer then a raisin.
