Casey thinks a Job is Slavery

Nigel posts an email exchange with Casey. Beautiful stuff:

The slaves worked hard all day long and all they got was shelter and food. That's all the average person working an average job today is able to buy with their income. We're slaves to our jobs.

And then when we want a little something more than just shelter and food we have to go into debt. That puts us into an even deeper slavery.

The dollar is eroding away (inflation) at a much faster pace than our income is increasing and the rest of the money is taxed away.

Slavery.


I guess he missed the part where people working average jobs have air conditioning, plasma TVs, computers & the internet, cars, Starbucks & Jamba Juice, and Macaroni Grill.

You missed the part where people living off their mommy have air conditioning, plasma TVs, computers & the internet, cars, Starbucks & Jamba Juice, and Macaroni Grill.

as long as you have a personal slave/mommy enabler a job probably does appear to be slavery.

To break free of the vicious slavery cycle, one must either a) take the risk and become a successful entrepreneur, or b) eat a bug.

Since Casey has shown his entrepreneurial skills to be a laughable sub-minus-zero, I recommend path b) as his only possible road to success.
