Take responsibility for your life and quit blaming others.

Funny- I would have thought that when a person:

I spent 16 years going to night school, working full time, playing
by
the
rules,
married, kids. I have the highest tech education there is BSEE
embedded
systems development.
Also over 23 years experience in the engineering field.

they *were* taking a decent measure of responsibility for life.

When a law abiding citizen is mugged by a criminal, was the law
abiding
citizen
"irresponsible"?

His is not the norm. **** happens. That is part of life. Accept it,
make
whatever changes you can so it does not happen again and move on.






Jim Hertvik's got a little money and thinks he is immune from the
financial vagaries of life. It's what makes him a smug,
pseudo-conservative asshole.



And I went to college, paid for it out of my own pocket and worked hard for
everything we now have. Nothing was handed to us. Nothing.

So I guess you are right....I have no pity for the floor sweeper at the Ford
plant making $70,000 when he loses his plush job. And I have little pity
for the unskilled, uneducated punch press operator who loses a job. They
chose their own path in life by not earning a skill or education.

No skill, no education, no job? Your fault.
