In fact in alot of ways it's easier because of these things. Think about it, you don't have to spend a whole day hunting, or months raising cattle, or spend a large amount of money, just to eat a burger anymore, because a corporation has decided to do all the legwork for you.
Keep in mind there are people who still hunt all day and others that raise cattle for months. They are probably wealthier then most. Do they hate their jobs? Hell no, they are living their dream, doing what they want to do. A quiet easy living, while providing for yourself. Loving life more than the person working at your crummy burger hut.

you seem to forget that the natural state of man is poverty and misery. every advance we take for granted today has been paid for with the sweat of those who came before and the wealth you see heaped around you was earned by the effort of others. that job and that school are gifts you have been given by generations who spent their lives striving to create the very things you complain about today. you are certainly free to wallow in the muck and spend your days idly. you are free to starve and freeze and play while the rest of us earn our keep, but don't expect anyone else to support you.
I agree with the the whole "people worked hard for what we see today" part. Even though the schools are a gift, yes they are, to us. We have the choice to attend or not. I have friends that have a 5 year head start on me, while I come out $40,000 in the hole. While they are making $8,000 more than my starting pay!! While they are cutting positions I am applying for and my buddy's put in the time and keeps his job!!

I'm not saying your wrong, but you can still provide for yourself and make more than enough money to live a great life and do things you want to do. There is nothing wrong with "dirty jobs" and being messy when you come home from work.

In the bible it says "Vanity of Vanities, All is Vanity." rings true more than often. It also says that a man should enjoy the fruits of his labor. If you come home from work everyday and say I hate my job, but won't quit it, wtf is up with that? (I am not a religious freak, I am in a senior rel. class and it is pretty tits.)

In the end, we don't have to go to school. I mean paying $25,000 a yr. @ a 4 yr. school that you will actually go to for 5 yrs. is a crock of shit! It is your choice. College students have their own opinion of things because we are the ones looking for jobs and there is nothing, college tuition cost more a year than we will even make a year.

I can related with roadrollin, things have changed alot and the new generation is questioning alot of things now and days. I agree with you roadrollin, everyine pushed me back to college and now when I graduate I will be the same job I did on my year off...and I will STILL be making more money than I could with my degree!

PS - I still think that a source of income a.k.a. a "job" is important. Everyone used to work for food and then they thought "I could make money off of this" and BANG!, money hungry mongers were born.
Lit Up Reviewed by Lit Up on . Why Are We Here?? I'm currently going to college, I have a girlfriend and a loving family. I'm not complaining about any of this, but I know that someday all of this won't be here for me. Someday I won't even be here!! It's hard to believe that we went through all these years of school, but for what reason? To maybe some day make a decent paycheck? I believe that money and wealth doesn't exist! I think that we are wasting all this time in schools, studying, and stressing ourselves out. Why can't we just be Rating: 5
