Reply #71: maybe you need to get a clue

rough for a generation? it's already been fucking "rough for a generation."

painful? you have no idea. really, as your post so clearly indicates: YOU HAVE NO IDEA

i'll tell you the one advantage we have here in the state of michigan - we are already well entrenched in the economic miasma the rest of you are about to start feeling. we've been growing our own veggies for years. yeah, they have fucking artist communities burgeoning in detroit too.

in michigan, there are no jobs, there is no bailout, there is no money, there is no help - and we have the rest of the fucking country telling us "too bad, so sad, it's all your fault anyway. you and your unions." ack! SCREAM! FUCK ALL YOU PEOPLE!

before you make your (not at all) well thought out pseudo-philosophical (bullshit) pronouncements, please take the time to understand the history and current economic crisis in this state. you suggest that the "workers" need to take control of their destiny? well fucking duh! they did! generations ago - and we call it "THE UNION." and unions have drawn the ire of TBTB every single day since then. and all the time and money that has been spent weakening and demonizing unions has come to fruition. but the fate of the unions is the fate of the american worker whether they like unions or not.

40 hour work week? thank you Union!
Health insurance? thank you Union!
Paid vacation? thank you Union!
Overtime pay? thank you Union!
Safe working conditions? thank you Union!
Middle Class? thank you Union!

i could go on thanking the unions, but i have to get up at an ungodly hour to get to my temp job that has no benefits and if i clock in 3 minutes late, i will not be paid for my first quarter hour work.

so thank you for your useless advice to the state of Michigan.
