IllegalAlien 04/30/22 5:24:54 PM #14 | cp87 posted... Well, thats true. I just think we are going to have to get a lot shittier before people need to have some grit generally speaking. And not just hardass grit. We are so complacent with getting ripped off. Sometime around the time the Internet came around workers just kind of became taken for granted. And we arent going to have nice stuff and things come soon. The average person shouldnt have to jump through hoops manipulating financial markets to be OK when they are old.I appreciate that you admit your lack of understanding, and i am sympathetic to the general point you're making --- "Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience." |
