    Everything has value in, and of itself. It isn’t not my place to care about every sentient thing in reality. If being practical is being fuct, then that’s me. Have fun caring about everything you can’t do anything about. When you have a fight worth fighting, I’ll sign up again. In the mean time I agree with everything you say. Whatever that’s worth.

    Then they should have talked about universal basic income. You gotta dig deeper than that. I’m responding to the bait that I saw. And UBI reduces all of the bag things for drones. Who’s paying for this again? Btw, I grew up in it, and fought my way out. The depressing truth is that if the situation you are in isn’t enough motivation to get yourself out, then I have to believe that you don’t want to get out. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. I’m not saying that we don’t get out heads, and hearts stepped on by all the crabs wearing timberland boots over here. The tendency ought to be to look to our own, as opposed to others. Others keep us in bag life situations. They didn’t put us there. Out own did that. All of this is general stuff. Something for nothing isn’t a lifestyle I can abide.

    Not really. You have to wonder about countries that think it’s ok to reward people with the work of others for doing… What again? Just existing? Seems like free food leads to confined circumstances. That is something the US knows all too well. The US currently gives food away simply because you exist. Guess what that, without competent education, has led to. Drug epidemics, mass poverty, mass murder, and partridge in a pair tree. Them that work, eat.






  • … Some others of us seem to have no understanding of the manpower at the fingertips of government. It’s a free country. Delude away. I remember when 9/11 happened. It took 3 days to get enough (about 2500) sailors on my aircraft carrier so we could break all kinds of records getting to the Gulf, and blowing up all manner of things. 3 days, from vacation to under way. Introduce some discomfort, and a little accountability and watch the mass of society scream about traitors. If you don’t mind being led to slaughter, then hooray for you. If you had any foundational knowledge to begin with you would understand that this is, indeed, a very necessary part of the growing pains of our country. Some of us want to be led, not caring to which type of slaughter. Others prefer to be left to their own lives until it’s time to fight for them. It’s perspective I suppose. It can come from understanding, or the lack of.
