Corporations are still paying taxes. It's just they are paying less now. We aren't in a recession anymore and welfare benefits are being cut. Liberals aren't happy about going to work for the corporations instead of a handout from the corporations tax $$

no. not doing your job is incompetent or inefficient. Lazy would be not doing any WORK.

and, since you're being lazy about discovering why some people don't have the opportunities to "accomplish anything in life", i'll be lazy and truncate my response to this...infrastructure and national debt.

________________________________________________________________________

Don't have the opportunities?.. or pass up the opportunities.

As one poster from the left stated that he had done his service to the country and then he was set to gain willful employment after that. He should be commended for that.

That would seem like a good positive start.. wouldn't it, as opposed to collecting welfare. Plus it would build them into mature people who have learned to fend for themselves.. right?

You want to join a really good "gang".. a really tough one.. Join the Marine Corp.

One of my sons, just finished up 9 years in the Marine Corp., he served this country and fought the battles he was told to and he got hurt doing it. And he continued his education. He graduates next spring with a masters in his field.

Who paid for it.. Uncle Sam.. gladly. Uncle Sam says " thank you " to hard work and dedication. Uncle Sam doesn't mind paying for that.

So some prefer to sit on their lazy a*s and wait for handouts.. as the opportunities just go by. Others make things happen.

That is the difference.

opportunities are useless if they are hidden from sight.

some people pass up opportunity, and some people are far removed from and unaware of how to take advantage of or find opportunities


and the internet is not the end all be all for everyone to find everything or to know where to begin to look, if there is no reinforcement of examples for them to replicate or imitate ...

how is paying less as a corporate citizen than the average human citizen justifiable?

oh, and about that whole not being in a recession anymore thing...the lazy rich that caused it, the lazy right that refuses to put the lazy rich culprits in jail for it...
you're welcome.

(that was they doings of the lazy left president withOUT any help from the lazy rich or the republicans. they only said no, which on the surface seems lazy but for how hard they worked at saying no)

How did the rich cause the recession?

thank you for your service, and for your son's.
i hate that he got hurt, and i hope he's doing well.

btw, uncle sam doesn't always say thank you gladly to our veterans. as a matter of fact there are milions of veterans trying unsuccessfully to get the promised services from the same uncle sam that put them in harm's way against their will and conscience as well as a great many that volunteered, which is abhorrent. i can't believe that as a country we allow that kind of refusal to do the legal and right thing. perhaps we are lazy as a whole, on that note?
j/s.

and, btw, just because it's true that many employers (especially the super large and/or multi national corps take an unfare share of the profits earned by the efforts of the various members of the organizations, i agree there are a tremendous amount of responsible business owners like those that you described in your previous post about how you run your business, and as a responsible business owner i wish you and your orginization continued success and many steak dinners.
(i recommend ribeyes. they're the best!)

hopefully, as a good steward of your organization, those that loyally contribute to you are always fairly compensated for their loyalty and dedication to your leadership.
(i suspect you aren't earning hundreds of times the wages of your average valued employee?)

The Army, Air Force, Navy, Marine Corp, Coast Guard & National Guard recruitment offices are hidden from site?

Is there anyone in the U.S. who has not heard of them or does not know how to walk into one.

Is it not a more attractive way to EARN money and LEARN a skill. Is it not a attractive way of getting a higher education, or help with purchasing your first house. Is it not a attractive way of learning right from wrong, self control and personal responsibility.

Or is it easier to just sleep all day and sell drugs and shoot people in the night time.

Do you know anything about how the sub-prime mortgages were packaged up and sold, so the banks could simply write loans to anyone who applied? And when all this worthless paper ended up being called in, the banks (who had made money hand over fist with the loans) all of a sudden needed corporate welfare from the government because they claimed they were "too big to fail"? I am guessing a lot of the poor did not have stocks in these blue-chip companies, but the RICH certainly did, and demanded through the Congress that the US government bail them out?

What about the auto industry? Take loans that you don't have any intention to repay? Did you know that GM in 2008 was basically majority OWNED by the US government, because the government had to step in? Do you think that the bad decisions made at the top of GM were by people who were living paycheck to paycheck, or do you think they were well-to-do folks with good jobs?

Even today, members of Trump's cabinet can't understand why they have to fly coach on planes to meetings, and why shouldn't they be able to book private jets?

Get over it! Welfare happens at the top as well as the bottom. The only people who do NOT get it are the middle class, who are not rich or connected enough to get bail outs.

don't be lazy. do some simple investigations on what caused the recession and who corrected it and at what opposition.

protip...only respectible and reliable resources may be used, or it doesn't count.

you're working too hard man! don't encourage laziness!!!

I imagine you dont believe they are out of site because of your experience being able to find one. Everyone is not you and everyone is not cut out to be in the military. Scary anyone should think that okay as the only option for those who are in underserved communities with subpar educational and job opportunities. Grow up underserved and then sign over your life literally to the society in which you were underserved ...

Yes. it is more 'attractive', but 'attractive' isnt the reason people sign up for military nor is it the job requirement or the motivation I believe the military is enlisting young people. And its not 'attractive' once the young are deployed to possibly kill or be killed by complete strangers.

I cant think of anything that is harder, in fact, than signing away your life to be owned by the government that way, nothing at all, which is why I would never think people should have it be their only option out of poverty.

I understand why the recession happened. I want to hear it from a liberals point of view. I'm waiting for her to explain it, condor.

this stupid site just crashed as i was replying with a lenghthy, thought out reply to your post.
i'm too busy to rethink and repost all of it.
is that lazy?

anyways, i agree that the military provides opportunities for some, they are not necessarily the right opportunities for all.
especially when under the direction of such an (allegedly) corrupt administration and multiple draft dodging rich kid become president who never understood duty, honor or integrity to this day.

sounds like a lazy cop-out to me.

I thought of the perfect answer to that first question

LAZY thinking ..... haaa

Well, the folks who believe this demagogue in the White House without checking his facts are pretty lazy too.

When you let someone else do your thinking for you, do you REALLY think the guy doing the thinking is going to think "What is in the best interest of Workin4it?", or is he going to say "Well, I am doing all the work in thinking this through, what is in MY best interest?"

Let me break it down a bit further: I say to my ex-wife when we were married "Where would you like to go for dinner?"
She says "I don't know, where would you like to go?"
"Well, we could go here, or here, or here"
"I don't care"
Where do we end up going? The place I want to go. And then I hear afterwards "I hate this place, why did we end up coming here?"
And I DON'T say the correct answer which is "because you were too lazy to THINK"

How does this same thing apply to the right? Well, a guy says "let's build a 2000 mile wall". Nobody thinks "wow, that didn't work in China 2000 years ago", they say "wow, we can't afford the taxes to pay for it". The guy says, "we'll get our neighbor to pay for it". Nobody thinks to say "Can the neighbor afford to pay for it for us? What if he says no?"
And they don't think of things that have been invented since China built their wall, like planes, missiles, container ships, or fresh produce from South America that we have come to enjoy. "Wow, will a wall stop any of those things coming to America? I hope not, I LIKE being able to eat fresh strawberries in the winter" And they don't think that 22 Pounds of uranium (the amount used in Hiroshima)is only the size of a grapefruit. And that we have more container ships coming into the port of LA in a week than probably comes over the border in 3 months, and a wall is not going to help search those containers.
"It is OK, the Orange man has thought it through FOR me, I don't need to think about it. I am too lazy to try to figure out if he is lying of full of $hit"

Oh, and let's not even talk about the 80% of the voters in the US who were too lazy to come out and vote.

Consumer debt is as high now as it was before the housing crash. Like I said, I'm waiting for a liberal spin. I want to understand how it's "The mans" fault. I made a lot of money during the recession.

MS.. Are you kidding me?.. Lol... Do you think recruiters are just in the NYC area. I am the only one who sees them.. Lol. They are in every county in the United States, they are on T.V, The internet. They are in newspapers, magazines, ect., ect. So please don't cheapen your words by claiming that recruiters are hard to find. Because everyone here.. left and right.. knows differently

Btw, are you saying there are no recruiters in Chicago?

Ah yes,, They can take the money from the government but can't ( and won't ) defend their country by doing what Americans have been doing since the conception of this country.

And you disrespect all who have served and certainly those who have died with your words and your clear " gimme, gimme, gimme outlook to your country.

And who said it was their only option?. It is A option, a POSITIVE move towards personal responsibility and developing a skill to be used after the service. Don't like that one, well that's fine then find another one. Any positive move forward is better then... no move forward.

This country was built on those who served. left and right. And it was not built for others to sit back and just take what they have fought for.

Did I state recruiters are ONLY in NYC? No. That is not what I think. I think recruiters are in many places, they also are NOT everyplace.

Many people dont watch 'tv' anymore. When I have watched I have not seen enlistment commercials, and I dont live in an underserved community. And I doubt kids struggling in underserved communities spend much time browsing through newspapers and magazines, IF they even have any.

And why should the government (of by and FOR the people, btw) do anything to improve infrastructure and opportunity for the underserved if leaving it gets them automatic ownership of their lives? And why should the military be the ONLY option for those who have grown up in these underserved communities?


I have disrespected no one and said nothing about 'give me'. I have military family myself. SO I will ignore the deflection.

This country was built on those who served AND MANY who gave and were not served. never forget it. So military is one of many people to thank and give a damn about in this country.
