My employer was kind enough to give me today off, so I caught up on

am too thrashed from working a couple jobs to do them.

Part of it was some neglected bathroom cleaning. I was in there with a
bucket and bleach, wondering to myself how many AmeriKKKan fools had
let a few years of easy credit go to their heads and had hired crews
of illegals to clean the bathrooms and kitchens of the McMansions they
were fated to lose anyway.

Now the easy money is gone, the houses are lost, and a lot of folks
who had fallen into the habit of thinking they were too good, too
rich, too busy to clean up after themselves are becoming reacquainted
with the household-cleaner section of Wal-Mart. i wonder if they have
the fortitude to live in perceived "diminished circumstances."

Human beings are resilient. Americans will adjust to the new standard
of living if not now, in the next generation and so on. If they don't,
then they are nt fit to survive in the chain of human evolution which
I thinl is not the case. After all, their ancestors came to a new
land, didn't they?


What a croc. Most Americans are very hard working. You would have
them become slaves to corporations.

Americans have the reputation of living to work rather than working to
live, eh?
