Yes, it cuts many ways. That is all true.

One of the things that you have going for you is your attitude. It will help carry you far.

Thank you kind sir, likewise

I would wish you a good holiday if it were worth celebrating... but I'll wish you one anyway

Seems like you're doing pretty well for one living in Vegas

Got through some stuff... that ain't bad o7

Thank you.

For the most part things are looking up- and I needed it.

I went out again last night and the crowds were kinda weird. This holiday should be second only to New Years and should be a BLOWOUT!. I really don't like the direction that much of America is going in.

Today is a day to do all kinds of work around the house and tomorrow I am going to attend some of the local celebrations and hopefully it will be good.

I want everyone to make some attempts at getting out, It rarely is perfect the first time- and that is going to mean sometimes toughening up and expending some effort.

Too many these days are so soft that if things aren't perfect the first time they set foot out the door they go into a shell and quit on life.

Credit and dividends.

A disturbing number of people need to help themselves.

When they go out clearly not caring about their appearance and hygiene, radiating out such a bad attitude... they are creating their own negative experience. There are reasons why nobody wants to go near them.

Then there are things like setting foot outside and then burying the face in the phone, doing things like only coming out with groups of weird people- meaning that nobody new is going near them...

It isn't that there isn't anything to do or nowhere to go. People gotta stop being their own worst enemies, put a smile on their face and be the kind of person that people want to be around.

Off the government. They give people thousand's in foodstamps and thousands in cash. No wonder people want to live off the government.

Bedtime rant time!
If you generally don't like me, first of all, you have ♥♥♥♥ taste, and now's a good time to ♥♥♥♥ off and stop reading.


But seriously. This whole "working a 40-hour week for a pittance of a corporate salary as a literal requirement to life" is NOT REAL. This concept of the work week that people falsely accept as 'natural' was devised literally as a suppression mechanism against the working class during the industrial revolution. Weaponized hard labor: a means of trapping an entire populace in a near-permanent state of exhaustion, mental fatigue, and learned helplessness.

The only true requirements of life are food, water, and sleep. The barriers and 'middlemen' that we have in this world all exist solely to keep people "in their place" and stop certain powers, resources, and rights from ever changing hands from the elite to the general population.

It doesn't even slightly have to be this way: everything could and should be much more equal across the board, but the population just accepts the corruption.

And the 'secret' reason that most people accept it is this: they have been sold the power fantasy that if they suck capitalism's warty, syphilitic ♥♥♥♥ hard enough, THEY could be the one "at the top" oppressing everybody else. (This of course is a complete lie - nobody becomes a billionaire on an hourly salary)

That's right. The average human is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥ in the head by all the brainwashing and crab mentality that this society bombards us with, that they don't even want to stop the oppression. Hell, they won't even fight against their own oppression: they'll accept a job they hate, and make excuses to themselves about it, just so long as someone sells them the myth that by climbing the corporate ladder, maybe one day they could hold the whip and beat someone else with it.

~~~

If you're happy being an abused work slut for your whole life, fine. But stop dragging the rest of us down with you just because you refuse to fight for yourself and don't want anyone else to win this battle that you're too cowardly to step up to.

Easily. Government gives the unemployed money to help them live until they find an occupation which generates income for comfortable living.

A bit of a snip

Not bad points at all... Unfortunately, have to agree with many of them

(to a certain extent... beyond that it's good for people to do things but not like this!)

It started off a bit negative- but ultimately, yes a bunch of those points are right on it.

For most people, working 9 to 5 is not security. Not really.

If most people want to break out of being a wage slave they either or going to have to work harder, or smarter, start a business... something. Just showing up and bringing nothing unique or valuable to the table is a recipe for a rough ride.

If people want to break out of that nasty cycle, they gotta bust a move and do something.

I have been on ODSP in Ontario, Canada for 34 years and it hasn't been a fun experience. I'd rather be working but extreme anxiety is the issue. Psychiatrist, psychologist, in hospital care, etc.? Forget about it as the healthcare here has gone to hell. However it is also on the person in my situation to heal on their own. It is not something really treatable with medicine. Now eh have I worked on occasion? Yes. Have I felt better doing so? Yes. The problem is the work was either seasonal or I was hired because my friend was the manager at the business and once their employment ended there well mine did too for reasons related to travel. So eh to finish while some may think people not working are on a nice vacation in life it is far from that. You do not want to be in my shoes. Anyway best of luck to all out there.

economically that can't possibly work unless the jobs are exploitative in nature, to recoup the money from not working.

otherwise, the job would be unnecessary. the economy could simply sustian itself by subsidizing everyone and letting people who wanted to work work.

the extremely wealthy would lose their way of life though. no more almost-free labor.
