Enough is Enough! Hard work Just doesn't cut it any more. There used to be a day where some one could live comfortably by there own means as long as they generated some sort of income. Now you can't walk out side with out pissing away 50 dollars. The Gas is Ridiculous, Prices have gone up on everything including Hair Gel, The economy is shitty unless you were one of the more fortunate who comes from a long line of money/inherited money/ or won the lottery. Usually the greatest inventors and most inspired entrepreneurs come out of depressions/recessions, but how the hell is anyone suppose to be able to do anything these days with out credit??? Jobs don't pay enough!! 8 dollars , 10 dollars, 15 dollars an hour is just not enough to do shit with. There are more couples getting divorced over money and more grown "kids" Stuck at home because they just can't handle more than one thing financially. The worst part about this all is simple this..
In life, we all have different likes, interest, hobbies, talents, etc. We all know the difference in being a physicist and being a garbage man. There is a greater degree of education and intelligence that may go into one career and as a result they are highly compensated for the unique genius or specific hard work. But regardless of the differences, both a physicist and a garbage man or a Teacher and a sales clerk used to be able to lead normal independent lives. Both could own their own home if they choose( though one may be a mansion and the other a regular ranch) They could both afford new cars( one may be a mercedes, the other a honda) They could afford to take vacations and bring there families on trips ( some may stay at the highest end resorts, while others may stay at a average hotel). Now a days, you cant survive in a regular job unless both people are working and haven excellent credit. I know how important smart financing and being careful budget wise can be, but it comes at such a great cost these days that people are losing out on more important things in life.
When does it all stop. WHy doest every one have to feel like they have to be a doctor or a lawyer or a hiphop super star to lead a simple comfortable life where you can enjoy your freedom and excercise the right to shopping for your self or traveling.. Why are these basic privledges slowly only becoming available to the wealthy.. Were killing future leonardo da vinci's, were destroying future edgar allen poes, were ruining the chance to have another lincoln or jfk, or roosevelt or any good politician ,hero figure from existing because were all becoming like ANTS. All we can do is wake up all fighting over the same thing .. trying to make as much money as possible just so we can feel like were alive, just so you can keep your family happy or take a girl out, or feel like a real grown adult and independent. These things arent luxuries there suppose to be a part of life. Everything is out of control from the extreme reliability on computers for everything, to the way people are being brought up .. Future generations are becoming drone like, Theylll all live off computers, none of them will have a sense of real family, there won't be a reason for marriages at one point because it will be considered a fad, there wont be a government because no one can agree on anything so it will be easier to have one person make choices for us, and boom.. there you go the complete opposite of where we started... Ironic.. dont you think??
IM mad. because I just want to live my life. IM tired of measuring up to everything for every little thing i do day in and day out, an its become past the point of just simply minding my self. You can't leave the house with out spending 20-50 dollars on a tank of gas, paying to enter a beach because most are becoming "private" same with parks, eating food other then the dollar menu at mcdonalds is becoming gourmet prices. and theres so much more....
thats the price we pay for living in new york, but its still ridiculous. Im really afraid for the future. | |
