  • Agreed, and I feel like that’s what I’m getting at here. A family of five used to be able to exchange 40 hours of labor with the economy and at least get by. Now it’s 80 hours, and we’re struggling. The right is suggesting we put our children to work to make up the difference.

    I think we’re on the same page.

    “No man should have to work more than 40 hours per week!”

    “Yeah, that seems pretty reasonable.”

    “Women should be able to work for the same wages!”

    “Of course. We should all have equal rights.”

    “20 hours should be the new work week!”

    “I don’t know, man. Seems pretty leftist. It’s not like we nearly doubled employment.”









  • Ah, yes. I forgot we were on the internet for a moment. Where are my manners:

    As retribution for not sharing my worldview in its entirety, I’d like to take this opportunity to insult your god, gods, or lack thereof, as well as any ethnic, national, socioeconomic, and racial identities to which you may hold. I regret that we don’t know enough about each other to be more specific, so please infer whatever stereotypical pejoratives you feel are most appropriate and offensive to you and your family’s particular demographic situations

    In all seriousness. Thanks for the amicable discussion. It’s a nice respite in an increasingly polarized world.



  • Yeah, buddy. It’s finally great again. We’re going to enjoy it together.

    You… an’ me. Ever’body gonna be nice to you. Ain’t gonna be no more trouble. Nobody gonna hurt nobody nor steal from ‘em." darkassassin07 said, “I thought you was mad at me, Tooth.” “No,” said Tooth. "No, darkassin07. I ain’t mad. I never been mad, an’ I ain’t now. That’s a thing I want ya to know."

    The voices came close now. Tooth raised the gun and listened to the voices.

    darkassassin07 begged, “Le’s do it now. Le’s get that place now.”

    “Sure, right now. I gotta. We gotta.”
