i will not tell you how many years i have been unemployable because i don't think it would help your state of mind but it has been many

if we have no skills that society can or wants to use then we have no choice but to hustle -- most of the folk in the new orleans area who are unemployable -- born unemployable -- pick up a gun, be it in the army or be it to join the drug trade, what else are they to do? they are not going to just lay down and say "oh well society has decided i'm useless i'll lay down and die"

nor will i just lay down and die

people who keep "paying for the education" are forever in debt for that hoax...it is no different than tipping out the dude who hires you at walmart except actually it's more costly to buy an education and "hope" it gets you a job than to simply tip out the dude who is hiring

people will not just go off and die, plenty will "buy" jobs, others will pick up guns

i'll give another example -- in the 80s a stripper earned $300 a night in new orleans just to take off her clothes and didn't have to be a whore, now strippers have to tip out everyone in sight, the only people who make money are the "features" and the bosses (and a feature has to be a whore/porn star, she can't just be a dancer) -- everyone's making $$$$ except the worker -- and that's just one example of how a job that requires no skill that used to pay good money now pays barely a living wage unless you want to forget about keeping yourself safe...
