You SHOULD be work more, and you should be glad to work more. Your work supports the best, most free, most prosperous country that has ever existed. You want to be mad and thrash around, like a bull in a China shop. I understand, but your reaction to negative outcomes is itself much more negative. You must be positive, listening, constantly productive and at your best behaviour. You must do this yourself because you need other people to do it, and we must all lead by example.

I know you're mad, and that things aren't going the way you want to, but the truth is that things in USA and Canada are excellent and we should be very careful to get mad and start breaking things because we want to keep our promised land pristine.

You're like a man with a blindfold and a baseball bat, and our democracy is the pinata. You can only do damage by swinging your bat around. You cannot help democracy that way.



1: Let us know when you start working 18 hour days and consent to getting nickel and dimed by grubby companies who continually raise rates because they know you don't have a better option.

2: USA/Canada are great, but that doesn't mean they can't be improved.

3: You whole argument is doing nothing = everything will be fine. That's ridiculous.


What I'm saying is that you don't know enough to improve the system. You think you can just swing your blaming stick around like you know who's wrong and who is right. But you don't know that, and I don't know that, and the system we live in that is constantly producing prosperity is much too complex for anyone to understand.

But you and I both know this one thing. We both know how to improve ourselves. We know things that we are both doing wrong. I know my problems, and I'm going to fix those before I start tearing down the beautiful, harmonic system that I've inherited.


Yes I agree! The majority of citizens are stupid and should not have a say in how a society operates!. My pride will be all I need when my livelihood is stripped away by those more powerful than me. I will fight against them all by myself until I become the most powerful! That's how everyone else has done it! Going solo.


This is so delusional it hurts

You should work more to support a country is an line that would come straight from a Communist country.

We as humans are not born to work. That's a false idea being propagated by people who want to use you for their own gains. We are born to find ourselves, to realize our best potentials, to follow our dreams.
