Man, you not only had the hammer, but you had all the nails. I moved to NC last summer, and I've never lived anywhere where "entitlement" was more in demand. I'm gonna give ya an example, actually happened yesterday. I run to the local Food Lion to get an item, just some pesto sauce I needed for something I was cooking for some friends. I go to the check-out counter, and there's a bunch of groceries on the ramp, no problem. The check-out gal is trying to check this guy out, he's having hell with his debit card. The groceries belong to some african american woman that wanted something else and left to go get it. Since I have only one item, the check-out gal tells me to come on through. The woman whose groceries are on deck shows up and absolutely blows a gasket. I'm like, hell, I'll back it up, it's gonna take this gal 30 seconds to get me checked, but I don't want to be accused of infringing on the far left, LOL. It's nuts here, these folks, and I'm not naming any race/creed/nationality, LOL, are the most, for lack of a better term, greedy individuals I've ever been around, think the town,state and country owes them everything. It's way past borderline stupidity.
