Anyone else feeling the desire to Atlas shrug?
I work as a chef at a small restaurant. I do honestly the majority of the work, while the owner does his stuff. Which is not much. If you have ever seen the movie chef it is honestly pretty similar but not as bad. Because I get paid fairly well to deal with all the bullshit.

Anyway we have fairly wealthy backers who are decent people and will not allow the place to fail. But with all of these changes and BS new regulations and people not wanting to come back to work because of incentives to stay at home.

Man I am just feeling my mind want to shutdown and allow the abyss to claim what I am holding up.

I feel like that is going to happen to America in a short amount of time. There is only so much that can be produced while they are just kicking sand and dirt into your face while you are trying to produce products.

It doesn't matter how much money they print out of nothing to give to the masses eventually you will run out of production because no one is doing anything and the people that you have frustrated have stopped caring about holding the world up.rant

I hear you. It's just a feeling honestly.

I just see the America/the world slipping into a very bad time for the people. I really do feel like this is the actual endgame. Complete control and a orchestrated collapse that will take care of the decenting populace.

I feel it! Yes, those that care have been overworked, me included. Those of us who ACTUALLY make the world go around are not getting extra money, just extra work. We are the stupid ones I think.

Re: Anyone else feeling the desire to Atlas shrug?
I'll let you in on a secret, few will accept. This is the nature of man. We are fallen, corrupt. When we group together as a collective we aggregate, concentrate and amplify that corruption.

This means the more advanced we get the more coordinated we get and the more collectivized we become. There is no answer, it's sin, it's our fallen nature.

The best thing we can do is become like the Amish. Heck I'm not willing to do that, I like technology toys so this is my downfall.

A tree grows in yonkers,
a tree grows in queens,

Who on Earth knows
A top writers dreams?

A child of revolution
her daddy a white

Her hero's an American,
puttin out the world's light?

In Russia when right
why'd she not fight?
