Is it just me,or does it seem to you as well,that a great many people today are always looking for the easy,lazy way to earn money?
I mean,look at all the people on this great site,that want to do nothing but sit at the computer and earn lots of money,why do they not believe in working for a living like in the days before the computer?
I do know,that many here do have regular jobs,and try to get a bit more this way,and thats great,I have nothing against that,it is just the people that are always asking where to make lots of money instead of finding a proppr job.
I am soory if this offends anyone,just interested in your oppinions.

Perhaps people do not want to work hard anymore because the end result is in fact "money." The fact that survival depend son a piece of paper now is overwhelming sometimes, instead of actually working hard towards a beneficial goal to produce things for life we feel a different type of immense pressure.

Hi ArsonCuff,I agree that there is a lot of pressure on everyone today,and the end result of working is money,but when I get young people comming into my shop and complain they cannot find a job,in an indestry like we have here right now,it does tick me off,in Calgary right now,you can not turn your head without seeing a help wanted sign,and they are going after outsiders(immigrants)to fill these jobs,and yet,all they squack about is the homeless.
Now I have nothing against certain immigrants at all,and I can understand how there are some that for medical or other reasons are unable to work and can not afford a house with the inflated housing costs,but there are so many,that do not have any excuse not to be working,except they want over $20.00 an hour.this for flipping burgers and such,come on.
Many Blessings.
