Anonymous Coward User ID: 28412265 Ireland 02/14/2013 04:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Oh, did I strike a nerve? This could be a long list. NOBODY with any integrity would make fun of people based on economic conditions they were born into--like chinese workers. NOBODY with any integrity would call for the wholesale slaughter of a group of people based upon their religion. NOBODY with any integrity would call those less fortunate lazy because they don't have access to the same opportunities as others. NOBODY with any integrity would claim to be a "rebel with MORALS" with such a contradictory history of violent communications. Okay, your turn. Now try to prove me wrong by doing one of the things I just called you out for... It's because I expect people to have integrity that I hold them to high standards...those born in poverty can work hard and get out of poverty, to stay and wallow in poverty shows lack of integrity... Therefore I have integrity because I choose to do for myself instead of depending on others...read this, doubt you will understand it though. Thread: Creed of The Self-Employed Why do you bother trying to smarten these whiny fucks up?.. they believe what they parrot that came from some tenured priss commie in school. Personally I think colleges should be shuttered.. all of them. They "teach" nothing anymore and just promote self serving communism. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 33130922 Canada 02/14/2013 04:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What is the sense in giving a whpping to someone good enough to offer employment when someone who offers no job gets no hassle? Government can't create jobs or raise wages, it can only destroy jobs and raise unemployment. THis minimum wage bullshit is merely shovelling jobs overseas to China by the boat load. Before minimum wages there were jobs galore in the USA, now the USA is able to produce noting on an industrial scale beyond guns, booze and hookers. For Christ's sake, scrap this crap and repeal this minimum wage malarchy into the trash bin of history. |

We are letting the darkness grow because we have been duped. Our lives are not as they should be. We are allowing the evil to control us. Jesus pointed us in the right direction. The answer to the worlds problem is not in economics, politics or bleeding heart humanitarian movements, it begins with a search withing yourself a search for love and peace and beauty and it takes practice and fervent devotion to reach that place, but it is not beyond us. Jesus gave us a helping hand how many of us are really taking that hand. Before you start I am not a new age idiot or a religious nut. I am a broken man who has had to see things that way because everything around him has crumbleed. It crumbled because I kept asking for the hand but never took because of fear and whatever else.

Holldoll User ID: 24459229 United States 02/14/2013 04:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Nearly 12 years ago, when I met my husband, he already attended college for computer science. He had a good job, well enough that I was able to stay home and not work. Our home was a nice brick three bedroom for the price of 250/month. We were able to take on a car payment and have leftover every month. We lacked absolutely nothing on a one person job that was barely over minimum wage. We were just starting out and doing pretty well for ourselves considering he was just out of college and I was just out of high school. Three years later, he got an even better job..so we packed up and moved out of our state(but it was a career change). We were still doing well, but a few years and two more kids later he got laid off. It was just, absolutely unexpected. They told him that they were just cutting costs, and we had to move. Here I am, with little to no skills and I can only bring minimum wage to the table. It's still actually cheaper for me to stay home with our kids, than to put them in daycare. It was a horrible situation, but thankfully we had family that took us in, and we paid rent and I turned into the house maid(Which honestly, I don't mind since I'm staying home and not bringing any money to the table). We've lived here for two years, and all this time the only work my husband was able to get..even with experience, and a college education..was a server job at a restaurant. So he just now finished another round of school at a trade school with the rest of our saved funds. At no fault of his own, he's had three career changes in twelve years. Shit happens, and sometimes you think you make the right choices..but shit just happens. Server jobs are less than minimum wage and you count on those tips to survive, luckily we had money saved and family to help us, but without living with other family members..it would be absolutely impossible to afford housing at a minimum wage job. I'm sure there are lots of things we could have done differently, I would have gone to college myself before having children. I shouldn't have kept faith in my husband's job security, because things can happen and from the way things are going lately, lots of people are getting laid off. But for those seeking hope, my family got through this. We are making yet another life change very soon, and he found a job after graduating from school for a second time. Keep your heads up. |
