Texsox Posted November 26, 2004 Share Posted November 26, 2004 The store space is free cause the stores are all built and owned by the government. I guess the store has to kick in to help pay for power and the such but that isin't all that great an expense I would think. You mentioned military pay though, Military pay has shot up by a lot in the last 4 years. If I remember right we got a 7.5% pay hike in 2001, and like 4-5% a year since, save for the 2005 hike which is only 3.5% #$%&@#^@#$^!. One thing Id REALLY like to see is to have military pay exempted from Federal taxes. I dont pay any state tax from Illinois even though technically I'm still a resident because of such an exemption. Hence my point of government subsidizing the store prices. Wal-Mart, the civilian PX There are a lot of positions in our society that do not earn what they are worth. Military and inner city teachers who make a difference come to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wise Master Buehrle Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 Just came back from the mall. It was absolutely madness. I must have stepped on at least a dozen people. My dad and I waited outside Best Buy for an hour just to get in even though the store was open! We were freezing our asse’s off but this day comes only once a year, plus you save money. I mean... who doesn’t like to save $$$$? You know how else to save money?? Don't spend it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
