Things were easier back then financially no doubt. Were they the best of times? Not so sure about that, people were a lot more narrow minded back then.Sumela » 31 Jan 2024, 12:20 pm » wrote: ↑ Thanks. No system of governance is perfect.

Our system evolved into vampiric neo-liberalism and crony capitalism.
My Grandpa loved to talk about his and my Grandma's first house.
1100 sq feet. Small 3/2. Fenced yard. They had a baby. They were both in their late 20s.
One car - 1950 Chevrolet Deluxe. Grandma didnt work.
And they lived happily on a young auto mechanic's salary. Owned a car and a house on one income.
Brother we all got bent over and **** - We've been had.
"Narrow minded" as opposed to "enlightened"...?
Would you rather have spent your days as a child playing outdoors rain or shine, building tree forts, exploring miles and miles worth of undeveloped land and playing sports ...or were you more happy with spending your childhood inside your Mommies safe, sterile and climate controlled Living Room playing Black Ops Commando and Ninja Warrior every day rain or shine...?
You blame capitalism for government expansion and regulations that strangle the economy? Nothing is free, why do you try to demand it from a selfish system of larceny?Sumela » 31 Jan 2024, 12:20 pm » wrote: ↑ Thanks. No system of governance is perfect.

capitalizing off reasonable doubt isn't capitalism sustaining equal opportunity working socially to create a better way to survive than adapting one at a time fighting each other cradle to grave to stay alive, now.Sumela » 31 Jan 2024, 8:16 pm » wrote: ↑ Sir there are MANY MANY forms of "Capitalism".

Not the people. Banks get bailouts - the people get ****. Wall Street gets welfare - the people get ****.
CORPS get welfare - the people get ****. MIC and AIPAC get BILLIONS - the people get ****.
CORPS didnt flee and desert us in mass because of "regulations". They shat on us and fled to

Hopefully I live long enough to see the silent generation and most of the boomers pushed out of office. What happens after that with younger generations in charge will be interesting to watch. Which direction will they go? My gut says Euro Zone. Government expansion.
P.S. Too funny, my grandfather was also a mechanic, worked his way up to service manager. Spent another 25 years after that doing small engine repairs out of his garage.
What is the difference between a career and a job?Sumela » 31 Jan 2024, 8:23 pm » wrote: ↑ Wow. :LOL: That career path is quite similar to my Grandpa's.
At his peak he managed a Goodyear full repair shop in Dallas for 25 years.
Then he and a friend opened a tiny shop, where he finished his career.
He could talk cars all day long....I never got the bug.
The trick is to hire Paco and Anish and Ling for $5 hr yourself and outsource your work to 3rd world wage slaves. Many people in places like Vietnam and Malaysia are satisfied working for $5/hr (very happy at $7/hr).Sumela » 31 Jan 2024, 8:23 pm » wrote: ↑ Wow.That career path is quite similar to my Grandpa's.

The difference is how much you internalized capitalist propaganda about how a "career" is awesome and a job isn'tNostradamus'omh » 31 Jan 2024, 8:26 pm » wrote: ↑ What is the difference between a career and a job?
A career is what someone wishes to do all the time, a job is what a person does to have a living compromising with career characters saving humanity from natural balancing.
Externalizing equals internalizing when navigating time sharing space uniquely here either as a me or we.

Hopefully your Gramps wasn't a complete asshole. My Mom had the misfortune of getting pregnant in highschool in 1958. Taboo back then.

I have achieved a pretty high state of narrow mindedness and CLARITY thanks to a lifetime of observation and personal experience.
What I take exception to are people who buy into the notion that being "narrow minded" is automatically a bad thing.
This notion has been taught to us as away of accepting all of the society debasing social trends that the JWO has tossed at us ever since the 1950s.
Instead of calling it "narrow mindedness" the [[[JWO]]] Social Engineers called it prejudice, bigotry and stereotyping and broadcast those terms day and night all across their networks and into every public school lesson plan..
Let me say this....preconceived notions and opinions about large groups of people that have MERIT do exist.
Let the brainwashed Liberals base their opinions about Humanity on all the rare exceptions, flukes, outliers, anomalies and wishful thinking beliefs that are statistically weak .
They love to believe in Rainbows and Unicorns
Not me.
