Do you receive a paycheck at your job?
Why do you bother cashing it? Why don't you just go work for free?
Unless you are paid in commodities, you are cashing a check that has no intrinsic value. Why waste your time cashing it?
Have you ever worked for a big corporation before, I worked for the biggest telecommunications company in Australia in my previous job for over 8 years and multiple times in that employment i saw corporations clearly ripping people off and making money doing it hand over fist ... they used to tell employee's to place charges on peoples accounts and do nothing about it unless it was complained about ... planed obsolescence and cyclical consumption are terms thrown around constantly ... my sister worked at McDonald and they told her to leave out 1 item from every other order if it was possible to save the company money because they knew a bunch of people wouldn't come back to claim there left out portions. And this is just minor things look at corps like goldman and sachs where stealing massive amounts of money from the people was common place.
If these guys can do it on a massive scale and never get put in jail why does some one who say steals some pens and office supplies get jail time for doing this ??

Why didnt you gather the necessary evidence, and go whistleblower on their ass?
You still didn't answer my question.
Why do you bother cashing your paychecks since they have no intrinsic value?

Please explain to me how someone making minimum wage ($7.25/hr) is supposed to support themselves (living wage is $8.80/hr) while somehow still able to pay for their education or materials to "educate" themselves as you have put.

Why aren't you out growing your own food, getting your own water, and homesteading it up in a log cabin that you built with tools you made?

Would anyone care to explain this? The numbers just do not add up to me.

lol Some people have responsibilities and people to look after .. thats not a luxury everyone can afford to just be able to drop everything and walk away. What about people who couldn't physically do that because of injury or a defect from birth ?

And how do you afford to pay the taxes on the land you are using to grow your food and drink you water? Can you even do so legally without permits in your area? Are those permits free?
