I’m retired. Don’t need a job and don’t want a job.

And meanwhile millions of illegals are lounging about with all their expenses paid by the stupid gringo.

What is NOT being discussed or pointed out is the HUGE number of folks making money from home thru MONETIZATION via Youtube, etc, etc.

Many are not even reporting those earnings as income.

I drove from Elizabeth Co to Kansas City Mo over Thanksgiving. There may be inflation and high gas prices, but the amount of travelers on the highways and at stores was highest I’ve ever seen.

Yep. We try to herd as many of our young adults into an endless undergrad life as possible, providing them massive subsidies to go there, and then are surprised that more of them aren’t working?

We also put millions on an endless disability gravy train—as long as they never “recover”.

I’m looking to move from where I am, some are the typical reasons.

Most of mine I hear anything is “submitted to hiring manager”. The others, not a word.

I have a phone interview scheduled today. Take the call and see what happens.

Many of the disabled are addicts. During the Obama admin it was easier to get a disability for that reason than amputation and/or blindness.

THE REAL problem with that scenario is WHO HAS THE LIABILITY insurance to cover your job?

WHO HAS THE WORKMEN’S COMP???

OF YOU GET ANY WORK DONE ON YOUR PROPERTY-—MAKE CERTAIN YOU GET A RIDER FROM THEIR INSURANCE COMPANY TO PROTECT YOU.

ALSO GET A COPY OF THEIR STATE LICENSES-—MANY DO NOT EVEN HAVE THAT.

OTHERWISE-—LOOK FOR A DIFFERENT CONTRACTOR.

The government may have employees, BUT DO THEY REALLY DO THEIR JOBS? My eldest has been on the DSSI LIST WAITING FOR A CASE WORKER FOR 15 MONTHS. TIA, AND A QUAD BYPASS. He can’t work. His meds are expensive, and not fully covered by Market Place Obumer Care state Medicaid. $120 for every Specialist he has to see. NO money for food. State SNAP is not enough per month to cover the CARDIO DIET. His son pays the rent, utilities, and has him on his phone plan. We give him gas points, and what can be spared, we are 75/83. 20 years in the Navy 58-78 means a small pension.

You are a frustrated old man who is bitter at all others who have succeeded in life. You need to see a shrink ASAP.

For my house painting I made the contractor provide the insurance liability policy copy, got a copy of his state license and he provided a statement on paying workman’s comp insurance payments to the state. Also have an umbrella policy that covers other stuff....Been through this more than once.

Ummm, I’m not the one posting videos of myself on a treadmill and bragging about curling 5-lb weights and talking about all the jabs I’ve had, in threads about Pfizer/Moderna injuries
