If you want to work like a dog to support the capitalist infrastructure because your University professor told you two legs good four legs bad, then fine.
If you want to work like a dingbat because that is how it is done, then good on yer mate.
If you want to take some of that hardcore money and, oh, I dunno, go to an island or some exotic part of the world, maybe starting a business there nestled amongst the mountains, you have my vote.
If you want to go to work every day then complain about taxation, capitalism vs socialism vs marxism vs whateverotherismthereistocomplainaboutism, then you really have no-one to blame but yourself.
Even the poor sod working for a minimum wage can, say, stop smoking, then slowly save over a few years to begin his own sausage stand or something.
When I first moved to Portland, the very first thing that struck me was there are few to none decent salad bars. I thought I should open one. Did I? NO. Too busy thinking I first have to be a millionaire, and other such restrictive thoughts conditioned into me.
Well slap me pink with a wet salmon if I didn't hear a client say - "There aren't any decent salad bars in Portland." This, a year later.
A couple of thousand dollars, that is what I had. That, believe it or not, would have been enough. Nooooooo, now I'm stuck 'earning a living' until further notice.
Watch me though.
Do it yourself. Live your life. Ain't nobody going to do it for you, or stop you. Obama or no fucking Obama.
Now, will someone PLEASE invent and develop a replicator? (A la Star Trek.)
