People like jps need to lose their jobs for awhile to get some sense
of reality. They will realize the awful truth that they truly are
superfluous population and nobody really cares about their fate. She
is correct, us capitalists truly have no need for people like her.
Once you are unemployed, you become invisible and part of "The
Problem".
I know, I been there and done that, unemployed for 5 months before
rolling the dice and starting my company using home equity and
scavenging junk to make lab equipment. When you are the founder of a
small business who has endured just about every disaster that can
befall you, you tend to have little pity for whiners. People like jps
are simply too lazy to live off their own mental capacity but instead
want to live off the efforts of others.
Now, I can understand younger people having to work for somebody else
for awhile cuz they don't yet have enough knowledge to be on their
own. When you get older, instead of bitchin and whining about them
"Evil Capitalists", go to work for yourself. If you don't yet know
how to work for yourself, then you aren't ready to do so; keep
learning and shut up until you do.
So, engage those two neurons and figure a way to work for yourself and
then you will no longer be excess population and will become part of
the solution. Creating jobs for others is the most laudable thing a
person can do but you will never get any credit for it, only the blame
for them being unhappy it isn't a "perfect job".


Amen and amen. I started life in a sawmill laborers hovel, then we moved
to a sharecroppers shack of a farm. At age 4, we moved to Miami, FL, where
I stayed till I finished high school. Eight years active duty in Air
Force, followed by 30 years law enforcement as well as 30 years in
military reserve. Along the way completed college and graduate school.

At times worked a full time plus part-time jobs to keep family fed and
sheltered. I never sponged off the public dole, never collected a dime of
unemployment pay. Some of the jobs I worked wouldn't be done by many of
our younger generation, or even of my own who believe the nanny state
should care for them from cradle to grave.

When life was its toughest, I always counted my blessings. Knowing that
life is what we make of it, I really have no patience for the bleeding
hearts who would deprive me and millions of others of their hard earned
money in order to pass along to others who can't or most often won't do
for themselves.

I willingly give to charities of my choice. I resent highly those who
would take the fruit of my labors to give to anyone else.

Life is way too short to abide the fools of this forum who brand
independent thinkers and conservatives as less than human. Their snobbery
and false superiority is sickening. And since life is too precious to
spend it in further negativity, I'm done with rec.boats. I plonked my self
from this maddening forum.

Maybe I'll see you around someday.


Duh!
Froggy was talking about working for yourself. You just admitted you spent
your entire career in the service of government.
