Have you read what a lot of people write about themselves? CS, it would seem, is like a race of supermen. Maybe this is why profiles are littered with so many over expectations.
I could deal with her having the one kiddy if I liked her enough, and she has made a decent job of the parenting.. Not such a bad thing to actually see how good a Mother she is before I myself decide to bless the Earth with my own junior DNA.
I wouldn't even be sure that education helps an individual financially. Over here we have people with Sociology and sport science degrees competing with one another for entry level jobs in accounting.
Now neither degree helps to become a good accountant, and 20 years ago applicants wouldn't of needed a degree, full stop. So the only difference between the employee back then and the employee today is the mountain of debt from higher education the current employee has to burden.
I do feel that if I were in your shoes, i'd sound like you, if you were in mine, then you would sound like me. Education has become quite farcical here in the UK, yet Mexico i'm sure demands more classroom hours.
One aspect of education I do feel is neglected, and that should be taught, is about debt. How to best use credit cards, understanding mortgages, the rent trap and other money we borrow and how to then avoid being ripped off in our ever complicating financial system.
Well, yes, what is the point of teaching "skills" that will never be used in real life? Why burden the taxpayer to provide an education that has no rational basis or utility?
I prefer this idea to reduce idleness, and promote work. I see it as an education, and moreover, an experience of real life that can not be taught within the classroom.
Precisely, the problem of the Union(not that i'm anti-worker). This idea is essentially to circumvent the Union as well as to circumvent the outsourcer.
I can see your point, however, here in England we do so seem to have reached a saturation of education, so many courses we offer for the impoverished tend to lead to nowhere. They merely serve to disguise the level of unemployment, which suits the needs of the politician but not the needs of the nation.
I understand. But do regard how much we currently import, and how simple the products we import would be to produce here(generally speaking), then it's easy to imagine such potential to create jobs that would fit within this idea.
Plus, i'm just one engineer, if we divided such a scheme amongst local groups and communities, i'm sure that educated and practical people throughout the land, armed with local knowledge, could contribute useful and better ideas of their own.
Clean the streets, feed and care for the elderly, youth groups, childcare, restocking of fisheries, sustainable and labour-intensive farming work, small-scale manufacturing of basic goods no longer produced in the West...
In the UK we give £60 a week for someone to survive on unemployment benefits, why not pay them £100 to work say 18 hours over three days of the week. The gains made from the work would at the very least pay for the £40 difference, so it wouldn't cost the taxpayer a penny. Then there's the crime, health and social improvements we would see from the reduction of idleness to factor in.
I believe that there should be varying minimum wages set for differing industries and skill levels. I also think that those on unemployment benefits should perform a measure of service to the community, which by default would not necessitate a minimum wage.
All of the West, to degree or another, has subsidised its own lazy and prudish attitudes by importing volumes upon volumes of the globe's slumlife to do its own dirty work, so blocking illegals and tightening against immigration is only one half of the equation. You also need to press the unemployed Americans into service where the illegals jobs are left vacant. Americans rarely want to work these kind of jobs, which is why you must force them to do it.
Could the law be any less hands-on? Or have we just replaced all our police officers with social workers? What a ridiculous state of namby-pambyness in which we find ourselves here in 21st century Britain.
Mad pair of wenches though. They should of shot them both with animal tranquilizers.
Have I ever taken someone for granted? Yes. So it's possible that I could walk out on a right relationship. But so far i'm very happy that all my ex's are ex's.
Who knows if it will reach 8 billion? Nobody forecasted HIV, what could be next?
Will we continue to keep living longer? Not if the economy has anything to do with it.
I feel that the problem of expanding beyond your own ability to acquire resources, a problem found throughout history and within nature, is a self-correcting problem. In any case, it's illogical to suggest that the relative smooth sailing of the last fifty years or so will continue indefinitely.
Women neither play nor support team sports in the same way that Men do. There's a reason.
Then there's the size of female beauty/fashion industries - Women competing against Women. Girl-power, sisterhood, they're the greatest chirade on the planet.
Perhaps the second step is to vote, but who for? At least in England we don't have a Nationalist party worth trusting, and all the other parties are still enthralled with the old ways of Neo-Liberalism, to suit the grey and failed Liberal generations that still vote in number, for now.
I'm not surprised to see political parties are militarising, but I don't think politics has enough connection with ordinary people to be of great effect. Thus I do feel that the anger against Islam will just explode on to the streets - with violence between otherwise moderate people.
That's assuming nothing "kicks off" in that time. Consider the welfare state - which essentially pacifies the problems at the bottom of society - now there's every reason to suggest that the entire welfare state would crumble within 20 years - or at the least become a skeleton of what we know it as. Without welfare we will see street battles, riots and probably outright civil war across the culturally compromised nations of Europe.
The working class already feel dispossessed by the influx of too many immigrants, it is simply the law that prevents the Whites from attacking the Muslims, not a sense of cultural harmony, no such sense exists. When we lose welfare, the workers will have nothing left to lose and then the rule of law will be inconsequential.
There's an easy solution to this - lie. I often do it. If I think she might be a gold-digger, I tell her i'm a binman and if I think she lacks drive and ambition, I tell her I play polo for the Queen.
It's both of them, and neither. We don't have a market free from government subversion, just as we don't have a government free from market-funded corruption. We lack both Capitalism and government in any proper sense of the words.
We simply have a situation where the most ruthless members of society are holding everybody else to ransom. The Left, as usual, has a very bad idea of battling this, and the Right, quite typically, has absolutely no ideas.
Whether you're a genuine Conservative, a Hippy, a Nationalist, a Socialist or simply apolitical then you shouldn't tolerate corporate consumer Capitalism. But what comes next? What's the big idea?
I look at the protest mob, and I just see a rabble of people waiting to be exploited by their next messiah.
