And, who was instrumental in causing this? You know who.

Get rid of Welfare and Unemployment benefits, and you’ll be surprised how motivated people will suddenly get.

This is true, but the reason is we have exported opportunities from America to other countries.

Trump is the FIRST president in an entire generation, who is actually for American growth first.

I don’t know if he will follow-through, but he’s really the first. Americans can grow, an innovate, but we need to grow HERE for a while.

Globalization has gotten far, far ahead of America.

We need to buy American goods.

Go to any store. Any store. In any town. In any state. Coast to coast, pick a store, go inside, pick up any product.

Anywhere...

Oh, I’ll move into the ghetto right now. And start my own in-home baking business as I want to...oh, wait. Those pesky regulations about 3 sinks and industrial kitchen perfection and bribes to inspectors. Never mind. I’ll continue being lazy.

Corporations and small business have done everything in their power to undermine real wages in the USA with unbridled immigration. Well guess what? It worked. Add to that Big Educations™ run away costs and you are left with a pretty demoralized generation that sees some flaws in the so call capitalist society. We do everything to promote socialism and dependency and wonder why it happens.

The globalist - capitalist system works for the top 10%.

Why start a business, if you’re continually fighting the government to do so?

From Wikipedia:

In an August 2014 blog post, Cowen wrote, "Just to summarize, I generally favor much more immigration but not open borders, I am a liberal on most but not all social issues, and I am market-oriented on economic issues. On most current foreign policy issues I am genuinely agnostic as to what exactly we should do but skeptical that we are doing the right thing at the moment. I don’t like voting for either party or for third parties."

My God. Do you know what it takes to start a business today compared to 40 or 20 or even 10 years ago? Environmental statements and fees and more paper work and fees and health insurance and fees and more paperwork. All for no more reason than to provide high paying jobs to the laziest people on Earth, bureaucrats. What is this clown smoking?

It’s not that we’re lazy, we’re tired. Tired of over-regulation and government picking our pockets.

I’d love to start my own business. In fact I already have, but going full-time means buying my own insurance at about $1500 per month for a family of five plus self employment taxes. Basically I’d need 150% of my salary to stay even. I’m still dreaming of doing it, but the best thing for me financially is to keep a salary and benefits and work on my business at night.

Maybe once I have enough product available and the cash saved up I’ll make the leap.

And they live in neighborhoods that are about as segregated as they were in the 1960s.

And it's going to stay that way for me.

I refuse to live in a crime ridden, third world hell hole kind of neighborhood just for the sake of diversity.

Cowen believes we've gone too far in trying to create perfect, insulated lives for ourselves and our kids....

Couldn't agree with him more.

This is all the fault of the government. If you try to earn your own way they tax the life out of you. If you sit on you ass they will give you everything.
From the US government to local municipalities they are all eager to tax one to death directly or ever increasing fees and regulations

Multicultural societies results in social isolation.

Welfare is too easy, too.

Wait ‘til they see what happens when whites are the minority in this country’s business world due to retirement and racial discrimination.
