I realize that m...No Worries Busted Knuckles (Phil)<br />I realize that my outtake is not meant for everybody, I only state things here where I can have an open forum. <br />I am working on a post about entitlements and why I feel that they are just one more lever in the great machine of further communism in the U.S. I know that there are many that feel that Social Security is a good thing and while I appreciate the view, I don't hold it myself. IF the original intent had been held to a higher standard; my opinion of it would be different. The problem being; it never was held to that standard, and it was sacked from within before it ever had a chance to prove its mettle. Since that time, it has been raped and pillaged beyond means and the coming years will show just how bad that case is. I know, beyond the shadow of a doubt, all the money have paid into it over the last 30+ years is gone. It has been used to pay those on it now and to pay back that stolen before then. I will NEVER see it even if I wanted it. With that in mind, my 'preps' are my retirement plan. I won't be dependent upon a social program nor any government agency for anything. I am doing my damnedest to get off the utilities too. <br />I know that plan is not for everyone. I know that health factors can take that plan down with a quickness. I know that it is not a perfect plan by any means. <br /><br />But its the plan that works for me.<br /><br />I know what you are saying is your gospel, as my words are mine. So we agree to disagree and then have a beer, "it's all good!".

I read both, you and Dio.
What does that ...Busted, <br />I read both, you and Dio.<br />What does that make me ?<br />OPEN MINDED !!<br />A trait which our country has forgotten. Everything is not black and white, rather it usually is grey.<br /><br />The world is a better place, because both of you continue to write.Spudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00689059709873763146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4466323539505613532.post-19133965146955888582011-08-09T03:33:45.577-04:002011-08-09T03:33:45.577-04:00Let me buy you a drink and introduce myself,
My na...Let me buy you a drink and introduce myself,<br />My name is Phil.<br /><br />I would like to start by saying you have some very valid points that I will not begin to argue with, the whole shebang is going down the shitter at a high rate of speed.<br />Note the "New" NAFTA and just about everything else I could point to.<br />The one thing I am going to disagree with you is the unemployment insurance, and by extension, Social security.<br /><br />I paid for that with blood sweat and tears.<br />I lost my job a year ago.<br />The last time I collected unemployment was in 1985.<br />That is a long time, even in your book.<br /><br />It has allowed me to find some other type of work, nothing steady mind you, but work, at a lot less per hour .<br />At least I am working.<br /><br />Four hours away from home at times.<br /><br /><br />The "unenjoyment" gives me a bit of cushion to take up the slack.<br />I actually have not collected one thin cent from them in a couple of months but I file my claim and declare my earnings every week. Since I do not work steady, when I do work, it fucks me for the next week because I made more money than they were going to pay me.<br /><br />I actually had some one talk me into getting food stamps and I found their generosity to be quite overwhelming, a whopping sixteen dollars a month.<br /><br />Ya know what? Sixteen bucks is a bag of beans or rice to put away.<br /><br />I did decline though.<br /><br />I do believe we have more in common than not and I wish you the best of luck.<br /><br />I would just like you to realize that everyone has their own strategy of trying to survive in this fucked up mess and it may not fit with your outlook.<br /><br />Once again, my best to you, I mean no hard feelings and am of a certain feeling that TS is HTF as we sit.<br />I am an old fart and getting married in two weeks to a wonderful gal that I am having a great deal of trouble getting her to understand just how bad it is going to get but I WILL make her understand.<br /><br />Why else would I be here, rambling on?<br /><br /><br /><br />BustednucklesPhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15695733883033137146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4466323539505613532.post-74041593184698556212011-08-08T21:03:40.928-04:002011-08-08T21:03:40.928-04:00Yep go for it!
