True, it's a slave system no doubt. With the biggest b*tches being able to PARTIALLY skip over some of the negative effects of said system. In return for contributing to the suppression of those at the bottom of the pile. Simple.

I totally agree, but I have to point out that it was broken to mass amounts of people in the movie Matrix in 1999. :)

hf This is for you op~! Start a large garden and if you can find a small lot, then start a co-op. Just save your seed from your vegetables and dry out for two days. Till the soil in rows, plant and use old styrofoam cups with the bottom cut out and mulch with free leaves or chips from the local county extension.

You can do it~! You will eat healthy and have your self respect and Love will follow~!

Love Love.

I agree with F.I. An honest appraisal of the "work" situation. The best revenge is to slow down and take care if yourself. Get strong emotionally and physically. You will attract people in your life who feel as you do and are successful. Temporary work is one way to try jobs out and find a good fit. Just ignore the negative and be open to the positive. I had to hit a bottom of sorts before my luck started to change. I like Joseph Tittel. I get a lot from his blog talk show. I started to meditate and do mental and physical clearing. It helps a lot. I can't share this with my family since they don't like psychics. I myself am psychic so I tend to pick up negative energy easily. Lay down your burden and keep posting what you are feeling. You are not alone. Many feel as you do.

Many people figure out when in grade/high school that being subject to the rule/will of others is not how they wish to live their lives. They try to decide what they like to do, and how to do that and be their own boss. You're still young enough to learn a trade or skill that will set you on a freer path.

You will feel better if you can eliminate the alcohol/cigs and begin an exercise program.
In his book, "Between Two Ages," Brzezinski wrote: "The technetronic era involves the gradual appearance of a more controlled society. Such a society would be dominated by an elite, unrestrained by traditional values."

Re: I'm 34 and jobless. I am deeply resentful towards the so called 'work ethic'. Here's why...
Here's why I feel so deeply resentful towards the system, that I am as deeply reluctant to serve it:

First off, it is so stressful and monotonous competing with hundreds / thousands of other wannabe slaves, that you are forced to constantly upgrade skills and sell yourself more (beg harder). It is degrading to beg to be someone else' slave.

Second, if you manage to get an interview, you are heavily interrogated.

Third, if you make it through the interrogation procedure they now own you and they can talk to you like shit and force you to slave away as hard as they like. Not so? Disobey your boss or argue back, you will find yourself penniless and homeless in no time.

Fourth, you are forced to work with people who may be absolute assholes and there's no escape.

Fifth, you take the stress of a job home with you and your mind is swamped with work schedules. so you cannot truly relax - ever.

Sixth, all of your freedoms are removed from the moment you leave school to the moment you retire. You are forced to work 8 hours per day - Monday to Friday - until your youth has gone forever. In fact, your freedoms are removed as soon as you start school.

Seventh, you are deceived into thinking that you are entitled to two days of freedom, but you are so stressed from the previous 5 days of slavery you just want to sleep in on Saturday. Then you spend Saturday night getting drunk to blot out your miserable existence. Sunday is spent sleeping in and feeling like shit from a hangover.

Eighth, constant toiling away and being handed heavy schedules age you prematurely, not to mention stressing the immune system.

Ninth, you cannot live a self sufficient lifestyle legally independent of the system because if you build a log cabin anywhere, so you can fish / hunt or grow crops for food, the system's henchmen will destroy your home and imprison you.

Tenth, you are a tax generating automaton who exists to swell the moneyboxes of the elite.

There you have it -- the big pink elephant is not staring you in the face from the far corner of the room, it is sitting on you and crushing you with it's enormous weight, yet the world is in collective denial over this very obvious fact. Why? Because slavery is all they understand.

That's why I hate the system and refuse to serve it.

Although our system now is easier on the body than toiling in the fields all day to grow your own food, it definitely has its drawbacks.

It is absolutely better than the lord english Feudal lord / serf system of the middle ages.

We have it much better in the civilized world than the 2 billion+ currently that dont have clean water and grovel or a piece of bread.

You dont live in say communist Cuba or NK so feel lucky there.

Sounds like you are just suffering from Job related stress, and if so do something about it.

Create and run your own business.

I did that 25 years ago almost as soon as I got out of college, and although sometimes its tough, there is nothing like the freedom you have when you are self employed.

On top of that you can write off everything under the sun
on your taxes.

I even know one woman that currently makes a lot of $ buying stuff at swap shops and selling it on Ebay.

i'm confused as to why the OP refers to people getting jobs as slaves. that's fine if that's what you think, but if you consider this to be slavery then why are you willingly grouping yourself into that category? i quit my job in the middle of the economic panic in 2009. i did this because i was tired of living that life. i let my house go to foreclosure, moved, work for myself now. i grow my own food, make meaningful products for others to buy, don't slave to money. i have enough to live the life i want without answering to a boss.

i'm not special human being, i just decided to prove that you can do whatever you want, the only thing holding you back is you.

Oh this is so sad its funny.


1. dont beg no wonder your jobless.
2. an interview without questions would be pointless.
3. You can quit any time. they dont own you. (i suggest finding a different job first so your dont become penniless)
4. see #3
5. thats a personnal problem you need to work on. Try smoking pot.
6. see #3
7. see #5
8. your wrong. Activity and exercise keep you young. Its your attidute that ages you. (your as young as you feel)
9. Why do you feel that you can put a house on someone elses land? Feeling entitled?
10. Your lack of self worth will end you. Be a Man and exist as a Man and you will find worth in your self.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 554016


Well said, so sick of people just expecting things. "why should I have to work" These same dirt humpers complain about having to work then they complain that they don't have anything. HMM wonder what the common denominator is? Take a shower, cut you long greasy hair, pull your big boy pants up and be productive.

accept bribes, get involved with the MOB and a few select communists and you will have it made. Make a few illegal real estate deals, more bribes, run for the senate,when elected to senate remember Vote present on Bills , don't serve a full term and begin campaigning for President and don't forget to falsify your birth certificate and social security number.

Or just become a drug dealer ( undocumented Pharmacist ) and make your way up the ladder to become a drug lord and have your own cartel. Then you expand into trafficking guns for the US Government , thats real good money.

I've had some shitty jobs in my time, but guess what: IT WAS 100% MY OWN FAULT I HAD A SHITTY JOB. You gotta put some effort in to get something back out of this life, cos unless you got rich parents or win the lottery nobody is gonna give you JACK SHIT.

I will never forget about this I'm going to post,since the moment I watched Alex Collier interview:

"In fact the first-time I put it out there, Morenae and Vasais (beings from Andromeda)looked at each other and Morenae said to Vasais telepathically (because they are telepathic) ‘how would we ever use money?’ Because they don’t use money, they don’t have a monetary system, it’s completely… they just don’t go there – they didn’t understand. If you’ve looked at some of the research, I did a presentation on money for them, Morenae had asked me to do, and after several contacts of going through this presentation, Vasais just looked at me when it was over and he goes ‘I don’t understand why do you have to pay to live on a planet you were born on?’, and that question still haunts me to this day." - it haunts me too.

Word for word that is exactly how I feel! You get the education, get the job, get married, get a mortgage on a house, put money into a pension account so you have a few nice, relaxing years when you retire. I guess you could say it's building a nice grave for yourself. This 'system' is very rarely questioned, you more or less slip into each phase without really knowing what happened.

Once SHTF and we have a nuclear war, completely collapsed currencies, and famine we will be offered the solution of a one world government. Funny thing is when you tell people this they say 'what can i do?' or 'you just have to get on with it', it's exactly that kind of thinking that put us in this situation. It's times like these I wish I was Amish or part of a tribe...
