I'm currently unemployed and am going to start looking for a job in the next week. Unfortunately, as I look at the abomination known as the United
States of America, I am discouraged and unmotivated. Our economic system is a fraud, to work means to pay taxes to indoctrinate children and fund
unjust wars, millions of people who could work accept welfare (paid for by the employee), "public servants"...nuff said. So what's the point and
what's worth doing. I'm to the point where to be homeless and not contributing to this system would give my soul greater peace. I want to leave
the country but do not have the funds or skills (based on my research) to get legal work. So this is my dilemma. I view the majority of paid
positions in this country as either pointless, contributing nothing to society, or leeching off people who are doing productive things. I would go
back to college, but I can't justify it. I would start a business, but again, given the tax structure and oligarchical system in place, I can't
justify it.
Money is fictional and will go away at some point. But time and energy are things that cannot be reclaimed. I can't waste my life away working a
meaningless job just to survive and go out to eat on the weekends, saving money for home upgrades. This is what I'm surrounded by and the system
that's in place.
So ATS, what job is worth doing? I don't have kids. If I did, I believe I would view things differently. So, "what do you do for a living" and
why do you feel it's worthwhile?
