Yes since I am sure starving is the same as being able to eat. I am sure a homeless person on the street does not enjoy being that way. Homeless get abused and many are raped on the street. So you are going to tell me all of these people are happy and having fun? Grow up and see the real world. You sound like an immature child. Grow up please. Mommy and daddy are not going to take care of you forever. Even if they do they should not have to. You might think being homeless, poor, and hungry is enjoyable. You probobly never been in that position. So stop taking for granted the fact you can post this bull shit on the computer. If you want to go live with the poor prove it. See how much money doesn't matter after. I really doubt you will be complaining after that. Money pays for the internet so off the computer. Since using one is hypocritical.
At what point did I say that I wanted to be homeless? When did I say that homeless people were happy?
I believe that one should place more value on leading a fulfilling life than on how much money they make. If you make a large salary, but hate every day of work - what's the point? Sounds like a miserable life.
Why not accept a smaller salary for something that is rewarding and fulfilling?
Money is the currently what we use in exchange for most products. Some people also have families that they need to take care of. So they would like to feed them good food, and have them go to a good school. You might be irresponsible and not care about anyone else but some people do. So wake up and face the fact at this point that WE NEED MONEY. You can say that all you like but I am sure those homeless people on the street would like some. Without having to worry about not having a house to sleep in or food in there stomach and hooking for cash.
Well I personally am not content with being, homeless and starving on the streets. I think most people enjoy having a roof over there heads. Which the OP seems to think is stupid. If you dont eat you die, if you are living on the streets you are technically breaking the law. Since you are not suppose to loiter. Earning money to eat is not stupid. Being a lazy loser who wants to mooch off of others IS.
Again, I don't see anyone arguing in favor of homelessness or starving. I see Dogtown arguing that for him, having an easy and stress-free job with less income is preferable to working oneself to death in order to support a meaninglessly consumerist lifestyle, constantly in the pursuit of more crap that one does not really need.
Consumerisim and greed have become the benchmark of American life to the point where if folks were to reject it in mass, the whole system would collapse.
Does that mean I want a bunch of lazy hipster douches occupying anything anywhere near me?
Fuck no.
I agree that some people have become dependent on gaming the system and that has become an increasing burden on everyone who works, but the rampant greed on the other (affluent) end of the spectrum is making the people in the middle believe that the whole system is rigged against them, so why bother?
Yes and the OP implies in the post anyone working to make a leaving and having food on the table are greedy. I don't see how making a decent living is greedy? I think acting like we shouldn't means one is lazy and irresponsible and I agree the ones occupying wall street did not have a very good cause. As it was the entitlement of youth today believing government owes them everything.
The government does not Ow you free tv. If a parent could make less money doing what they like but wont have enough to support a child they might go for higher paying job. That does not make them greedy it makes them responsible. That is self sacrifice. They are sacrificing something they want to take care of the family they have. In stead of saying "Sorry sweetie I cant feed you today but I love my job so long as I am happy". The Op does not know the meaning of responsibility to be calling all these people irresponsible for wanting a decent living.
We all have to live and we all have to eat. Simply ignoring the fact we need money is not going to make the need for it to disappear. The OP needs to be an adult and stop looking down on us for fulfilling simple needs. It is not as though we can stop eating and ignore our families. We have to take care of our issues! So spitting on hard working citizens is not going to make greed go away.
We in fact use to have bartering but it was more difficult trying to change and regulate it among people. The people making the trade had to make the arrangement among themselves. So introducing currency while in fact its just a empty promise written on a piece of paper works a lot better. While its ironic since it should serve for the opposite being true. So even at that point its not making anything better but asking us to step backwards.
I HATE money. HATE it. Is it normal?

I hate to take sides, but DogTown seems like a pretty smart individual who is making a theoretical arguement against the status quo.
You are just posting angry obviousness and accusations while having a poor command of the language.
Love,
A Bird.
