The whole world is out to personally fuck you over. Poor, poor Brian. Better grab the lube!
He's making it personal. But one of the reasons why I seldomly agree with him. But he's bringing up valid points in this thread. Most of all what we, as a society, consider important and what we tend to brush under the rug. Which jobs we tend to value and if these jobs really are the most important to move us forward.
It's a pitty that Brian throws a fit again, but I consider the discussion to be pretty important and getting far too little attention. As I said, I observed it from both sides. Working the field and having a relative in need of the services. One day I may require these services too. There was a time when I worked the emergency services, that we discussed amongst us to off ourselves before being confined in any of these facilities for the rest of our lives.
We just elected an inept narcissistic jackass whom is a con artist who like the GOP will continue the same failed deregulation and trickle up policies that gave us BUSH. Yea, I am throwing a fit, everyone should.
Nursing homes are only one example where cutting corners is dangerous, but because of the attitude of deregulation those places are run by assholes who think you can treat them like a fast food joint.
But that is one aspect of business. We just had a business down here SUED for cutting corners trying to repair a building's plumbing and electrical system WITHOUT a licensed contractor. Again, it isn't one person, or one business, but the stupid idea that regulations are a bad thing. Regulations are WHY NADER was right and cars improved their safety standards.
And even if some dont moves up, but many do, the difference between the top and bottom cannot keep exploding. It is no different than stretching a rope or chain beyond it's capacity. We have just elected an idiot who is in bed with assholes who want to turn America's budgets for their own personal casino. THAT is what bothers me because we have seen it before.
Yes Abris, I am throwing a fit, any sane person should.
