I was writing in terms of answering someone who says they don't like being an employee- it wasn't a personal attack.

I agree about elected officials- used to be that they did it as public service and now, it's all "What's in it, for me?".

I was thinking of a postup from Another member my Apologies. Actually your postups make a lot more Sense than mine, my post ups are Mostly rants about the political issues going on right now. I never was one to be politically correct for that matter.

So yeah try again Chris, unitll You have walked in my shoes keep threads like this In general. Telling me whatI should or shouldn't do, or my Thoughts about what's going on in this country doesn't hold up to your standards. Is why most threads like these Crash and burn and become a dumpster fire. This is my last post on this thread.
[/QUOTE]

I didn't think I was going personal, I was pretty general.
[/QUOTE]
I get to keep the Profits and Employees don't? One of my Businesses was a hot shot service I owned the truck. Least on to Acme their cut was 20% of what ever load I took. Than all the fuel Taxes, plus all the other Expenses I incurred out of my Pocket. Now if you wanted to haul from say a oilfield contractor Exclusively, their hands where out for that white Envelope for the cut kick back under the table. The other was a Automotive aftermarket repair shop. Dealing with the Corrupt local officials not too Mention the other corrupt local businesses. This Repair business service call it whatever was a joke to run. You got Organizations that want kick backs, you got Customers walking and want you to work off the books for cash. You have state tax's city taxes School board taxes federal taxes, You have Cops Constantly asking you to donate you got scrupulous cult churchs that's running Daycare centers hair salons out of the cult church is to Funnel and laundry money are constantly stopping in asking for free money. I got so bombarded with people wanting the money in their hand outs. Customers bringing in their own parts then you tell them No Warranty on the parts that they bought only the labor and then come back to try to sue you. You can Not run a Business strictly cash only not capitalism. Than you have Organize crime syndicates wanted to try to laundering money through your business cash only. If you tell them go screw themselves you'll find someone done broke into your Business and everything is cleaned out. You report to the Cops, they come over take a report Laughing and joking between each other because they know who robbed you and nothing is done. Why? Because the sheriff ran unopposed and other local businesses that are corrupt in cahoots with the sheriff to run you out of business. Yeah ok Capitalism.

Any Sam Harris fans here? His podcast from yesterday, which will probably earn him the ire of the cancel culture, was pretty spot on. Viewing current events as a left/right divide, as many seem to do, is missing the truth. It's about small l liberalism and enlightenment values vs. something akin to the chinese cultural revolution where collective guilt is a thing and conformity is enforced with violence if necessary.

Dead Possum! Zombie apocalypse got him to or her. lolo :p:cool: Or down in the DeepSouth if you wake up and find a Dead Possum in your yard and it happens to be on a Friday Not good. That means someone in your family or maybe you gonna have a bad rest of the year. The only way to remove that bad Gree gree is to have a Voodoo witch doctor come over to your house and Spread chicken bones Two Duck bills and some puck Roost Feathers all around your yard. Than after midnight you gotta pick up that Dead Possum yourself and Throw it in your neighbors yard. If your Neighbor finds that possum before dawn throws it back in your yard than You gotta pay that Voodoo witch doctor with some of your Plasma. Why you may ask not your blood? Cause that's how them Voodoo witch doctors make money and that Voodoo witch doctor uses some of that plasma to make that Possum come back to life so that Possum leaves your yard and that Possum goes back to doing what he do best Playing Dead in someone else's yard. But you have to see him get up and walk away on his own Otherwise The undertaker gonna come for you on the next friday of the last week of the year after that first Friday you saw that Dead Possum.:p:cool:

So on the lite side of this Zombie apocalypse thing,
Today I Decided to check out hobby lobby again
So as I walked though the doors to Hobby lobby right at the door way standing where Two Nuns talking with a young lady. They the two Nuns where all Dressed up in their Nun black long umm Habits from head to shoe. So Me being me, :D as I was passing into door way I said Hanukkah! with a smile of Course, went look around took a few pic of things I was Interested in buying. As I was leaving the two Nuns and the young lady where still standing in the door way so Me being me said Yahweh! with a smile of Course. I'm going somewhere with this post so be Patient. Well I get in my car put my Iphone on USB to Stream music through my car Receiver. I looked in my Rearview mirror as I always do when I'm backing up one of the nuns is outside on her cellphone so Me being me pulled up to the Nun with a smile on my Face of course and asked her if she and her other friend Nun needed a ride. Because I have seen them two Nuns down on Main st walking all over down town on Main st in the city where I live. The Nun stopped her cellphone Conversation to tell me thank you but we have a vehicle with a smile on her face. Now I had the top down on my Convertible Mustang. I had my bandanna on my head I call it my, do-wrap its a skull bandanna I do that to keep my forehead from getting sunburn and the back of my neck. So as I was pulling off I looked again in my Review mirror and the Nun was looking at me driving off with a smile on her face. I really was just trying to be a Good Samaritan . I Figured I'd offer the two nuns a ride back to where they came from. No they both didn't have a face mask on I did with my Sunglasses on also and my do-wrap Bandanna with skulls on it. So I was thinking as I was drive off maybe the Nun seeing me like that, may have been the kind of guy Her mother warned her about because of the way I looked and my car smells like a Cigarette ashtray. My guess is they can't Open the door to temptation. Or maybe they couldn't Judge a book by its cover. The small city I live in is Populated with a Lot and I mean A lot of non-denominational churches, Catholic churches, Baptist churches, Presbyterian churches, Methodist Episcopal, The church of Jesus Christ of the latter-day Saints. and a few more. The Population of the city is around 75,000 . You literally cannot go from one end of the city to the other without seeing at least five churches in any One Direction. Oh and only One Jewish synagogue that was built by the US Department of defense back During the Korean War.

I been riding around a lot cause Boredom sets in. And people out and about are Not doing the face mask thing it's like New Year night here. They are Not doing the 6ft thing it's a real Hassle to go shopping, Lafayette reported 6 more Deaths just last night and that city is only 20 miles from here. It's not over by a long shot. But as for me keeping my head down, that will Never happen I get all up in their face they try and come at me. Never back down never give in or never step aside the Moment you do you become apart of the collective.

Just went a McDonald's here in town there are 7 city Police units and one Sheriffs unit in the parking lot all the lights on snd about 50 people Gathered around. I couldn't pull in because the Law-enforcers have the Entrances and exits blocked off. Some of you guys just may be right the Citizens of this nation are Mobilizing.

May be I think it's more likely what I feared when we advocated for total lockdowns or May be it's both things what you said and what I've feared @Gmoney

Society will start to fragment

Working in psych you learn a lot about what drives people also what's there breaking point

I think the unfortunate incident with multiple people ending in George Floyd and all the ugliness it exposed only speed up the process actually unfortunately it tipped it over when things were just starting to hopefully get better

Think people are starting to break

If it continues or burns its course until it hopefully does we all need to be enough careful out there

I saw a lot of things when I went out shopping today when I stopped for gas numerous people just hitting me up for money for food stuff I unfortunately can't afford to give to everyone

Just like on one of my psych units before things can go ugly I got that same feeling

That vibe that you need to be careful and watch your six

Need to be careful fellas it was a weird feeling being out today just be careful out there

I do know this one thing I've noticed with all the incidents lately with our black citizens all of them were under the influence when detained with the exception of the jogger that those white dudes went all vigilante cop on I can't remember his name right now

Floyd had by all means looked like he turned things around out of trouble for several years which is what he moved there for until he lost employment then the drinking and drugs began and things started spiraling

That dude passed out in front of that Wendy's failed his sobriety test coincidence I think not

The amount of people coming in to our drug alcohol units suicide units even our military is flooded man we are packed to the hilt

Scare people lock them down deny them work school purpose isolation it will break anyone soon enough add the fact people with benefits don't even want to go back to work but just have nothing to do the streets have been so crowded lately

Then the racial issues lit every thing up now there letting us out and back into society and so many in society are blowing off all that pent up anger fear hopelessness and instability and poof!!! hear you go it can go off pretty quick let's hope it doesn't

The part of reaI concern is if they don't extend benefits and jobs aren't there for people to come back to

Add to the fact that controlling COVID is going to be really tough it was going to increase when we lifted the restrictions

But put all the protests on top

One thing I know is that we can't go back on lockdown again unfortunately we are past that stage some people have talked about it

But with the pressure society is under right now things can't take a second hit like that
I'm afraid we may have to make some tough tough decisions in the fall and there s just no getting around it

I'll grok until the end my friend lol but still I've always loved chess to have a successful game you have to able to see all the angles moves combinations and try to have a strategy for several steps ahead

COVID if it's like chess game had a strong opening game. Now I'm just thinking ahead preparing for all the combinations of the mid game.

Just so I can be prepared for the end game

But I'll grok it all the way through my friend
