Oldie but goodie.

I am reluctantly looking at retirement in Costa Rica (decades from now).

The Men Left Bloody Footprints In The Snow..............

Dumb. People shouldn't try to fake these things.

I started this company 28 years ago. At that time, I lived in a 300 square foot studio apartment for 3 years.
Believable up to here... good story of American Dream type startup guy...

They worked 40 hours a week and made a modest $50K a year and spent every dime they earned. They drove flashy cars and lived in expensive homes and wore fancy designer clothes.

Really? Getting pretty inconsistent here. Firstly, MOST people work, MOST people don't start companies. In addition, isn't this letter purportedly to your employees who presumably work and want to live comfortably.. and 'fancy designer clothes'? huh?

So, while you physically arrive at the office at 9 am, mentally check in at about noon, and then leave at 5 pm, I don't.

OK, this is where the BS flag finally hit max and I switched off. If you are the boss, why don't you have enough managerial skills to get 8 hours of work out of your people. Why are you insulting your employees?

Just dumb.

"Obviously, government feels the latter (gov't money recipient) is the economic stimulus of this country."

Actually - they could care less about any of it - the have the power of making laws that pay their salaries - so they are only concerned with the driving power of buying off voters with other people's money - to maintain their lifestyles! They don't realize that the goose that lays the golden eggs (Business) has to be alive in order for them to steal it's golden eggs!

I understand, Mr. Employer. However, let me tell you another story. I put all of my energy into trying to teach American youth the truth about life and living. It involved instilling correct procedural values and moral values. Many Americans didn't like that, so they tried to jeopardize my career.

I got so little support that I frankly don't care what happens to those students or their parents any more. I'm not interested in trying to teach my subject matter much less trying to instill the correct values in a people with hardened hearts. What is going to have to happen is a complete and total collapse and probably subsequent bloodshed before people will wake up, open their ears and finally listen.

Until then, keep partying; keep living immorally; keep doing the stupid things that are dragging the nation down and keep trying to destroy those who would prevent you from falling off of the cliff of foolishness and watch what happens next. Oh, and make sure you kill the messenger.

This has to be a fake. Entrepreneurs don’t think like this.

Those tax hikes are what government employees call “austerity.” Get out while you can, Bossy. Don’t come back, until all education in the USA has been privatized. That’ll be the signal.

The Greek government chooses the tax hikes instead of spending cuts, BTW—not the choice of the EMU creditors (Germany, France and other northern manufacturing countries). Things to come for our USA, with a debt-to-GDP of over 100% now.

Considering how he considers his employees worthless I am surprised he doesn't quit right now.

In fact it is amazing that such a wonderful and perfect guy would hire such awful employees.
