Agree 100%. I have what I have earned; I have zero sympathy for those with less who have not applied themselves to a good life. That's on them, not on me...

It will not be "on them".
They will take you down, and you will not be able to do a damm thing about it!

This ^^ You want less crime? You want to see fewer handouts? You want to pay less in taxes? You better make sure the poor are happy and can make money, otherwise they will very much make it your problem. Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette learned that the hard way.

Not a valid analogy. The cause of poverty in this country is crime, not the other way around. It's cultural problem that's wrapped up in welfare economics. Stop the crime, get fathers back in the home, along with education, and the opportunities will take care of themselves.

The poor will never be happy. It isn’t the goal.

The goal is to keep the poor feeling bad, divide, bait and keep power. That is the one and only goal.

Happy people don’t fall for divisiveness.

That is going to require a complete reset of society; but I agree.

I said happy people.

Color has zero to do with happiness.

You are right... It does seem only those that pick a color are miserable.

About 30% of my business is landscaping. I am very backed up on jobs right now. I have job openings posted on several job sites.

When I do get someone to apply, my first two interview questions are usually:
1. Are you "high" right now?
2. What are you on parole/probation for?

Most restaurants in my area are having to reduce hours and/or close a couple of days a week because they can't find workers.

And it doesn't seem to matter what you offer to pay.

Unemployment must be very close to 0% right now. Almost every business that I know of, is looking for employees. Even our local McDonalds still has not re-opened their dining area and are still only 'drive thru'.

I went to my favorite (easily the most consistent) restaurant for dinner Friday night. The Caesar salad came with a small tub of Dale’s dressing. Good grief.

The grouper plate tasted a bit like fish sticks, perhaps it was freezer burn. The tartar sauce was also not made on site.

None of this is how things were handled before.

I’m happy he is still in business and I feel for him since he obviously no longer has access to competent staff.

Most of the servers are family members and I’m sure that is the only reason he still opens the doors.

This morning I went to Waffle House to get breakfast after the gym . Only half the booths were open due to short staffing. The server was bussing the table as I ate lol

I’m done.

Initially I felt a bit guilty for buying a Big Green Egg grill last summer. They aren’t cheap but what comes off that grill is better than anything that comes from a restaurant. They way things are now, I feel like I made the right move.

You wouldn’t believe the pizzas!
