Sea Of Atlas

The cost of benefits needs to be reduced so people don’t have to be forced into their jobs, go bankrupt, turn to go fund me. There has to be a middle ground. That includes reducing barriers to jobs like the trades etc. if you get disabled it can bring quality of life down pretty low and you can lose your house, your mobility, your hearing. I dream of being richer so I can help others more. It doesn’t take much to impact another in amazing ways. It’s a real joy. I’m not for people living on the streets begging because they’re lazy but I’m for some sick folks, disabled etc to have dignity.

A lot of manly examples but the first one I thought of is nuns, or monks, imagine taking a vow of poverty, or celibacy.

Wages haven’t kept up with inflation, therefore in today’s corporate world the only way to increase salary is move company to company. New hires doing less will make more than you and your loyalty. It doesn’t matter how hard your work or whether you are part of the team. Previously people had pensions and paid benefits. Those days are over. Retiree benefits are gone. Everyone wants a cut. **** the old, **** the poor. Ho hum human nature. Greed, self importance, lack of insight.

Red Baiting, okay. Dull. The idea that the market is living thing is a preposterous.

Good point. Incentivize learning a trade. Reduce barrier to entry etc. The market doesn’t take care of itself. Serve yourself and be a good human. Not everyone has parents, mine died at a young age. Not everyone at Market Basket can do what you think they can. The human experience is broad and I’m aware of the truth. I’ve helped a few kids through abject poverty and still do. I’m as rich as can be because of who I am, that’s what I propose, even if it means instant death, it’s the only way to face everything you will in life.

Massachusetts was one of the first to pass child labor laws. At the time the corporations argued against the idea even though some of the conditions were absolutely inhumane. Let’s not sell kids an unrealistic dream. I’m not against self improvement but we have to educate these kids how to maneuver the system which is very much human manufactured. A couple grumpy lines about choosing a better job ain’t gonna cut it.

Right wages haven’t kept up and it’s human policies that created it. There is no wisdom in the “free market”

Good luck how about surge pricing, price on the digital menu increases based on time of day. There are hands at work that are not the free market.

Free market ha. Pump and dump the American Dream is dead.

The oldest people that have fished in general have done the most damage so retirees will be phased out first.

Most species are more valuable to the public than a select commercial group. It the reason commercial hunting of game animals was restricted and the warden service was created. Fish have never been seen as equal, maybe because we can’t see them. I’m idealistic but have low expectations.

Won’t be long now before we add striped bass to the list like caribou, eastern cougar, great auk, salmon etc. my first sign was catching large amounts of huge bass all at once. If you fish near everyday you could see it being a problem. Then the season repeats with even less small bass. People posting up and claiming the regulations are working. It’s a photo op, the fish aren’t just offshore for boat fishermen, they were always there except the little ones filled in the gap. Especially along sand beaches. Striped bass fishing is one of the last great things about America. Now it’s the next thing to get flushed down the toilet. We need to show some love for these fish like people have shown to birds. We need people that don’t fish to give a rats ass and write a children’s book and stop the nonsense.
