15 Detroit Fire Companies closing, nearly 200 demotions

[p69rrh51]

Lots of question-begging there. I'll make it simple for you. The rich people have all the marbles. Places like Detroit are to be repositories for all the shit that they keep rolling downhill. The system isn't broken. The system is working. Detroit is a symbol of its victory, not its failure. We, as a civilization, are doomed because a bunch of rich people decided to play pharaoh in this country. But at least the Egyptians built pyramids. Our pharaohs build ghettos. Game over. I suggest you move onto your next abortion.

So I work hard for my money but I have to give it to someone else who could careless about working! That seems to be the gist of all your comments why should work then?

The Fire Phantom has burned 8 abandoned Detroit homes. He wants his mantra to be heard.

So give up working then.

[Wheels]

So give up working then.

Ahhh yes. Join the crowd. Welcome to socialism.

No thank you!

[Detroitnerd]

Ahhh yes. Join the crowd. Welcome to socialism.

No thank you!

Hahaha. Oh, yes. Government is the problem. I know. I'm going to guess that, every day, you wake up to an alarm clock powered by electricity generated by the public power monopoly regulated by the U.S. Department of Energy. Then you take a shower in the clean water provided by the municipal water utility. Then you turn on the radio to one of the FCC-regulated channels to see what the National Weather Service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration has determined the weather will be like, using satellites designed, built and launched by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Then you eat a breakfast of U.S. Department of Agriculture-inspected food and taking the drugs that have been determined safe by the Food and Drug Administration.

Then, at the appropriate time, as regulated by U.S. Congress and kept accurate by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, as well as the U.S. Naval Observatory, you get into your National Highway Traffic Safety Administration-approved auto and set out to work on the roads built by local, state and federal departments of transportation. Before leaving the house, you drop any mail that has to be sent out via the U.S. Postal Service. Then you drop the kids off at public school, and possibly stop to purchase additional fuel of a quality level determined by the Environmental Protection Agency, using legal tender issued by the Federal Reserve Bank.

After work, I bet you drive your NHTSA car back home on DOT roads, to a house that didn't burn down thanks to local and state building codes and mandatory government inspections. It most probably was not been robbed, thanks to the local police department.

Then, after all that, you log onto the Internet, developed by the Pentagon, and post all about how government is bad. Very bad. No socialism for me, thank you very much!

Of course, all this anti-government talk is really just coded language. You really aren't anti-government if you live like this. I bet you� are actually very pro-government, as least as it relates to improving your life and ensuring your safety and comfort.

Often, I find that people angry about "socialism" are actually opposed to is a government that improves the lives of all people. Or other people. Or those people.

But that wouldn't be you, would it?

Yeah, but "government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem" has such a nice ring to it.

Ahhh yes. Join the crowd. Welcome to socialism.

No thank you!

So p69rrh51 doesn't want to work because of taxes. You want to work because not working is socialist. ndavies wants to work, but not in a country that confuses poor people with human beings. So how about this? You work and pay taxes, p69rrh51 stops working in order to take advantage of America's incredibly generous social safety net, ndavies moves to Somalia and gets filthy stinking rich, and everyone is happy. Problem solved!
