So lately I've been telling Corporations and their products to **** off because well uhhh advertising sucks and most products suck too and the customer service sucks so its kind of become throwing good money after bad.

How have you been cleaning up the wasteful spending in your life?

I'm getting an E Reader so books are cheaper
I got rid of my TV Service and I'm trying to get rid of my cell phone service
I sold or am selling off all of the junk I no longer use
and
Im investigating moving my money offshore so that the US Government can't moan from sunrise until sunset about why I won't help it pay down the absurd and narcissistic debt burden brought on by the silent and the boomer generations, the two worst generations in the history of mankind.

People of the right income demographic ($50-100K+) are still attractive to foreign countries. Especially wealthy people. I'd laugh so hard I'd cry tears of joy if the US government could no longer finance its ponzi scheme debt auctions. It would be a sight to behold (on pay per view of course) to watch wall street and the American public cope when the Chinese and a few other countries cut off the trust fund or the middle east cut off the oil pipeline (wait we've been down that road already and learned nothing from it).

cool story bro

1% of the baby boom generation benefitted from the scam. I think George H W Bush called it "Voodoo Economics". I avoided debt the best I could, but the times I was cheated by contractors and Ronald Mc Donald House @Stanford, those times I had to pay for materials so I could recover and get going on my next job and/or pay for food for the kids on a cc.

The "entitled class" lived well on the ponzi-- and their kids. A good book "The Millionaire Next Door" talks about how some of the rich subsidize their own kids while making shallow promises of prosperity to others if they work hard, get an education, prove their merit, etc. This is how the 'credentialed society' (that which entitles one to confidence, credit, or authority) doles out 'entitlements' to guarantee compliance and conformity. These are the false promises that motivate the masses (generations) into thinking that there's something of value at the end of the rainbow, Dorothy.

Well, there is, but it isn't what you thought you were promised.

Malignancy comes when a person buys the lie so deeply that they believe they will be one of the survivors-- because they are smarter, or better looking. In the end, don't be a scapegoat or the finger-pointer; there were many cheerleaders pushing the 'pie higher'.

Corporations and government both cater to the malignancy via the 'hierarchal structure'. Authoritarians love to feel authoritative. Imagine the rush one of the entitled people can get when they get to beat on a dissident while others stand buy silently and watch-- blaming the victim? Vicarious pleasure that its not them being beaten or criticized.


"I stand silently and witness
The awesome power of your greatness;
Spin it well spinmeister
For I shall never forget what I see;
In time I will forgive thee;
Tonight I will pray for your soul;
In the morning God's love will make me whole"
