Years ago the risk was worth the reward - today I actively try to get my
friends not to take this foolish gamble. Burn the bra bitch.

Again years ago this had a good risk/reward. Today Brittney is not going
to do anything for you but create drama and problems in your life til
your dying breath with her crack habit.

Do that today and you will starve to death.

A test pilot, another failure today, I hear the airplane companies are
going out of business - less pilots I guess.

It's not the education that matters, its the PAPER - read this or watch
the video

The piece of paper is why one will be flipping burgers and the other will
be taking ski trips to colorado - they are both smart and educated.
I used to be the top in research triangle park, NC for networking, and
the certifications were requiring more of my productive time than I could
work to pay for them - but it's like the immigrants, you want in this
country - you got to PROVE you can add something, and if I wanted into
corporate profits as an employee, I had to have the certs and the papers
and the letters and the degrees and the associations and memberships.
THe failure with both systems is that in the CERTTIFICATION LADDER I was
being expected to learn and memorize MANY things that were not truly
needed for the productive work, it was wasting time I could have worked
in real problems and real solutions - the cert means little, the test
right before you get the job shows a lot more of where your knowledge is.
I know guys with certs that know nothing, and geeks who stayed on the net
and never had ANY schooling and are very productive individuals.
The mexicans coming here with no knowledge should be stopped, set up a
school over the border, teach them english, give them books and internet,
and then test them, if they past the test they enter america, if they
dont they can stay at the school in mexico until they do. To keep the
system honest, keep testing your employees and keep testing your
mexicans, if they get behind the people doing best on the continuous
testing needs to get awarded the better money and contracts and jobs.

They can go to the library like the guy in good will hunting and get a
FREE education.

Listen up LEFTIE, you CANNOT force thug fool who wants to spend 200
dollars on nikes and crack rock to LEARN, you can not make a HORSE DRINK,
quit wasting my countries resources on that futility. In asia you get a
test, after that test you go to trade school or formal higher education -
we should have that here, not EVERYONE deserves the same chance after
that, some want to work, some don't, dont piss resources away on lazy
people. I knew so many people in college that got FREE LOANS and all
they wanted to do was PARTAY!

Sure, tax it away leftie, we are gonna turn the crackhead into a GOOD
hard working benevolent self sacrificing individual.
But I do
> mind a tax increase for Bunker nukes, corporate welfare,
What you want to do is give welfare to the LAZY, lazy welfare, bumb
welfare, crack addict welfare, kids from a very young age can look out in
society and see who they want to be like, I wanted to be like captain
kirk, others like ludacris, in real life niether one of them get the
chicks - it took wesley snipes going into a crack house to get some
stinky hole.

We rebult Japan, they shot at our troops, the slant eyes are our buddies
now and send us lots of neat gadgets, expand your horizons.

Bill Cosby said it already, we gave the money to martin luther king jr's
blacks, they chose Nike Shoes instead of free books at the library, quit
pissing away my countries resources on your failed social experiment.

I know, I had a lazy bumb tell me she was hungry, she wanted me to go get
the food for her, I walked away and if she starved to death I think she
got her just reward, go take YOUR TIME and money and help that bumb, quit
asking me to do it leftie. I got better uses for my time and money.
-- Government policy in interest rates, and on finance generally, has been marked by vacillation, wishful thinking, electoral expediency of the most shameful type towards the end of last year, contortions and contradictions, all to accommodate the redneck economics of the National Country Party.
