I'd happily work if conditions were worth it. The kick in the ass is that we have to pay to live here while it rots under it's societies stupor. Life shouldn't be about destruction. It should be like a Smurf village. Shouldn't it? Life was better when people were raised by Smurfs. |

Awakened User ID: 1452131 United States 07/02/2011 01:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You don't have to pay, that's the flaw in their system. I finally realized that and quit paying. The only thing they can do is kill you or imprison you. If they kill you then you're free, if they imprison you then they are working to support you and your free. It's hard to face but the people who are enslaved are enslaving themselves.

That's the purpose of money...it was invented and you were all trained to suffer in order to obatin it. The people that don't want to work then use all of you dumb as dirt morons to do all the work. The created a trap you are born into...like cattle are born into. You puss for brians have zero clue how to do anything... You all need the system and in order to obtain what you want from the system you need money. |
Least Servant User ID: 1379655 United States 07/02/2011 02:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I had a chance to overhear conversations of several groups of Ivy League undergraduates not too long ago. All of their conversations were about completely banal topics... I had it in my mind to get up and start asking them a series of questions such as "What is going on in Greece?" "What is the current level of unfunded liabilities in the USA and what happens 8/2 with the IMF if our Congress doesn't do what they say?" "What do the acronyms TSA and DHS stand for?"... Then I caught one of the groups of girls complaining they had seen a mother changing a baby outside on campus one day... the general consensus of the group was that the school needed to pass a rule that prohibited such "weird" behavior on school property. I realized at this point, talking to this group 18-21 year olds, our finest minds, would be a total waste of time. :romaflag: Not enough to fight, too many to die. |

To be able to retire comfortably when you are an old fart and your health is on the decline. Wow, perhaps, you can take a few cruises with the years you got left and thrill at the midnight buffet and bingo with the other old farts that have insomnia. What will your tombstone say: "Here lies Fred, he was a hard worker. He worked so hard he hardly saw his wife and kids while they were growing up. But, hey, he finally got to do a bit of traveling when he was eighty five. The applesauce he sucked through a straw in France was delicious."

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1159240 Cyprus 07/03/2011 04:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Every creature born to this planet has to work to live on it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1448663Well that's not quite all creatures. However - and not to change the subject - the thread title is about pay NOT about work. When GDP is calculated it only considers production which is remunerated, there is a glaring flaw in that and therefore does not represent the work done in a country. |
