That's humanity. If, and I'm not a doomsdayer but if the power grid collapsed, an emp took out our computerized tractors and cars. Many people would no longer be able to work. People wouldn't be able to get food and farmers could only supply it by manual labor. Cost of food would go up and pay to farm workers would go up. We would suddenly need people to farm and it'd be back to the 20s for humanity but remember even then we had a great depression with thousands out of work. Society is not perfect but you can't blame the unemployed. It is hard to find a job for a lot of people. You can't blame the accountant for wanting to spend his time looking for a new accounting job vs cutting tobacco--would you even hire a guy that showed up saying he was a tax accountant and didn't know what tobacco looked like? Would you hire a 23 year old single mother that worked as a receptionist? How about a car mechanic? Most employers want somebody that has done that job before many times and recently and if you haven't they say your wasting my time go away. Frankly a dollar store probably wouldn't hire a tax accountant as a cashier because he hasn't worked in retail or as a cashier since high school, 30 years ago and they have 30, 50, 60 or more other applicants wanting that $10 an hour. Frankly you can't blame the laid off farm worker in Nebraska for not moving to NC to cut tobacco. The cost of the move would set him back terribly. Frankly in humanity everyone is pissed that they have it tough right now. That just how we are. If we all saw the light and thought more about others than ourselves then we'd have to wonder if it's life or heaven. And don't think for a moment I don't fit right in with everyone else. I can't get past thinking I have it bad and why does it cost me so much to have things done when everyone is supposed to need money--even when I know I have it well. I recently had the opportunity to take a hard look at finances and I can't figure out how anyone manages to keep their head above water on minimum wage any more even living on the bare minimums. Oh, and no I'm not an accountant or a farmer.
As for people who say they'll do something and don't show--that's really sad and I have no respect for them either.
