One reason I bought a Viper is the fact that it's America's only supercar, I also love the history of the car with Bob Lutz bringing in Carroll Shelby to help design a successor to the Cobra. I also admire what Chrysler did creating a factory with a culture of loyalty and production, much like I used to attempt to create with my construction crews, union employees instead of subcontractors and what subcontractors I used were union themselves so I was sure everyone on the jobsite was working on the same page I was, giving the customer what he wanted number one, even if it meant fighting greenies and city hall, if anyone is interested here is a 45 minute National Geographic video documenting the culture of the Viper factory.

I've got my 550 hp supercharged 2005 Hummer H2 for towing when necessary, and of course I've got to keep up my carbon footprint and give the finger to the environmentalists, greenies, and other lower socioeconomic class losers who have been fighting every project that I've developed or tried to develop my entire career, I've even stopped taking my statin pills and am going to try to get my pilots' medical certificate renewed so I can get back into aerobatics, I'm sure the over-regulations are going to force an appeal to Oklahoma City since I was once on statins. My CPA has been trying to get me to retire to avoid taxes, what got me was close to half a million in income taxes, more taxes that the President of the Untied States while he comes into SFO in two 747s with another following into Moffatt to raise money for his political party, the 747 is a great airplane but the most fuel consuming airplane on the planet other than one huge Russian cargo plane and he travels the world in three of them, I also got a notice from Social Security that they are cutting my Social Security in half because of a provision in Obamacare, after being told all my life that Social Security isn't socialism, it's a forced savings plan, now the bastards are taking it. On that subject I mentioned statins, I don't have insurance so I pay for my drugs, that statin was costing $171 a month, I went to refill it and the price was $661 per month, I asked the pharmacist why the increase? He said all the drug companies are raising prices to help for the losses they are forced to pay for Medicare, Medical, and Obamacare. Most of my friends, who are still alive, are leaving overtaxed/over-regulated California going to other states and even other countries to avoid our 55% taxes, meanwhile we read of federal government employees evading billions of dollars in taxes themselves.\ said:
