    MS, I was never what you would call a "wealthy" person, but I look back 4 years ago and think about what I was able to afford. It's like I was living like a king in comparison to today. And I wasn't making much! It's shocking when you realize how much inflation is destroying us. It's really bad, MS.

    Most well to do people that I have come across are coming from well to do parents, they have access to wealth and resources from early age and are very well-connected right from early adulthood. I have also come across people who don't have great family background, but they were groomed and hothoused from their childhood to pursue money.

    Brutal stuff and true. Its so hard to get ahead, its better to just try to dodge the hardship altogether doing something easy and carefree. My ambitions are increasingly shifting to van lifing it and hunter gatherer maxxing in a woodsy area. Better spear fishing in Alaska than 40 hours of cubicle work just to break even. Not including commute.

    When i get bored and sad, i like to read up on sanscript or Egyptian tablet, translations. Why? Because tge more thing change, the more they stay the same.
    There was one about reasons why people called off work
    -headache
    - scorpion sting
    - dad died and they are wrapping
    -bee sting
    -hung over
    It goes on. But image calling off work because of a bee sting

    It's like a joke, people cope with stress by seeking dopamine or other hormone secretions and wouldn't you know it, sex is pleasurable, and so it keeps playing like a broken record. The only motivation that has actually helped with reproduction in this species is economics and a slight increase in general intelligence. Before people would still reproduce regardless of poverty because life was just that bad, I think our creature comforts have played a role in this change as well. Because despite knowing how you'd have hoped it was people aren't having kids like they used to, even teen pregnancies have decreased

    What we need is good jobs. One factory in a town can pay each worker 50k or more. Factory jobs and blue collar work saved my father and brothers. We went from middle class to poverty. I was the only one who managed and I tried to warn my brothers. They all tried white collar jobs without education. It didn’t work out. Blue collar and factory jobs are keeping them out of poverty.

    Christmas Scrooges come out near Christmas to tell their workers for Christmas we require you to work on a Monday your normal day off to make up for that. Oh bonus you get Boxing Day off, we now requires you to come work on a Saturday to make up for that day off in the middle of the week. You say Christmas Eve you get sent home early; well not this year you will be working all day from morning to evening all day, no complaints allowed. And we do not care if your have kids. Fortunately for me I found out today I have three days left on my vacation and what did I do submit and get approved. However for the rest not so much. Disgusting pathological behavior by the evil ones at the top needs a push back in a big way.
