I don't go there. I used to. BTW, part of my distress is concern over what I see happening in my country and the future of young people, not just my own. I'm not miserable at all when I'm thinking and doing my own selfish things which I do to escape what I hear on the news and see happening in the world. I just can't help myself but notice.
My son does not talk to me very often, so he isn't getting his ideas from me. He makes a six figure income. By his reckoning, we are on our way to becoming a third-world country within a generation. He has yet to take one college course, but I guess he talks to enough people to know what is going on.
Some people like Walmart and I truly don't understand why you think only your opinion of how things should work is the only one that counts.
No, I learned long ago how little my opinion counts. That doesn't mean I don't have a right to express it, nor does it mean that I am right, nor does it mean that you and the people on the other side of the fence in this issue are right.
You seem pretty self-sure about how things ought to work in this world so you are accusing me of the very thing you yourself are doing. That is projection.
No, that is just you twisting things. I believe in free choice for people to shop and work where they wish, and you seem to believe in dictating where people should shop and work. You want to feel bad for others, then get off your rear and do something useful rather than complaining about Walmart. Go volunteer to help people, many agencies need volunteers.
