It is hard on a person being pissed off all the time. If you are working to provide the Escalades, big screen teevees and smartphones for someone else you can't lavish on your own family, that gets to a person after a while. Every paycheck, every quarter for the self-employed, you see a huge chunk of what you busted ass for go to people who will piss it away and go in hock for more. To make that worse, they aren't even doing the job they were supposed to be doing, instead they are coming up with new ways to screw up your life.

Yep, being continually pissed off is rough on a body.

Let God, Let go, and outlive the b@st@rds.

Yeah, I'm with you. Adding insult to injury, especially since Øbama took over, is the MFers are taking whitey's money, while at the same time, blaming whitey for their own self inflicted, sorry-@ss lives.

Actually, it is harder on a person repressing that rage.

I refuse to let the bastards wear me down.

Exactly. I see this world as sort of a video game. It’s not the real world though, in the real world, it has real consequences.

My resolotion beyond the obvious - follow Jesus and His teachings, was to move from the city of Seattle to rural KY and reduce my taxable income as much as possible.

It reduces my stress and helps starve the beast. We’re both almost 62 and have no health insurance. We trust in the Lord.

He has been very good to us, and much of it in very tangible ways. I mean true physics denying miracles.

I am now paying estate taxes - taxes that were already taxed when my hard-working father paid them. Yes, being pissed off is tough on the body!

I’m middle aged, gainfully employed, healthy and happy! Most middle aged people are too fat and diabetes is a serious risk. But I refuse to go down that path.

I should know as well about being constantly pissed off. Not only that but I feel pissed on every day.

You are so right! We had to give up our house and move into an apartment complex, large majority of immigrants there. It's funny how they all have nice new cars and when I walk around in the evening you can see they have TV's barely fit in the unit. I know they are all being subsidized by our taxes.
