As Richard Harrison told Chumlee, I will say to congress unemployed and welfare people I quote "Why don't you do something for GOD AND COUNTRY and get to work"

I totally disagree. Anyone that thinks this is true in this economy hasn't done the math. And with robotics and level playing fields with the likes of China it's only going to get worse. Even if you account for the less desirable jobs the situation is dismal.
I also learned a long time that some old people are reallys stupid. Don't take offense to that but there's plenty of older people that apparently spent 70-80 years and learned very little.
We aren't experiencing Peak Oil, we are experiencing Peak Humanity.

Basically our entire system is based on everlasting growth and fueled by funny money to boot on a planet with finite resources. Impossible. Of course we are still in the midst of a massive economic recovery if you listen to crooks like Bernanke. Personally I think things are primed and ready to fly apart at anytime and the gov't is getting ready for it: 30,000 drones over the US, NDAA, gun control etc etc etc. Fun times straight ahead. I need to go cut some rocks and drink a beer now.

If the government would quit taxing the hell out of the major companies they might come back and set up camp n the USA again!
