Everybody expects a paycheck. As a nuclear physicist, I could be making three times my salary now, but the work I do is important, and more interesting than academia. So no...I don’t expect more in return. My work is pretty specialized...so to “start looking for work elsewhere” is a non-starter. I’d rather stay where I’m valued, which you won’t get in the corporate world.
“When your paycheck stops you will move on”. I’ve got news for you, when my paycheck stops (unless it’s retirement), everyone’s paycheck in the US stops, because half the globe will become a total wasteland and everyone will be in survival mode. I’m honetstly not too worried about my paychack at that point.
Your check won’t stop.
It will be reduced.
The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate needs your money to buy votes and propaganda and protection.
Interesting that William Henry Chamberlin, the author of that piece, was a communist who became an anti-communist.
You’re right - and Musk cut them down to size...
When I last worked, I sure never felt any entitlement. Also the job had deteriorated to the point where it didn’t offer a livable paycheck any more. Previous to that it was a fairly likeable job, & the pay, while not great, at least offered a chance of being livable & maybe could even better that slightly. Then along came a new set of bosses & ruined the whole thing. Not too long after that, retirement was in the handwriting on the wall. Now in retirement, things have actually improved in spite of living on S.S.
