“Does anyone think that 2.5 million people, AND THEIR FAMILIES, are going watch their houses, and everything they own vanish, and not bear some small memory of who VOTED AGAINST IT? All you smug “just get a lower paying job...” droolers, and koolaide drinkers who are only one check away from following the rest into the Abyss can ponder it.”
Yeah, I’m one of those folks. I’m self-employed because no one is hiring. I just got stiffed by an unemployed railroad mechanic who’s on perpetual UI. Enough money to take a trip to Mexico on UI, not enough to pay me for services rendered.
Ask me how much sympathy I have for unemployment extensions out of my pocket?
Exactly what I am pursuing as well, and have run into the great catch-all 22. How does one become self-employed without start up capital (i.e. no job)? Am looking to do something online but every avenue I research requires a lot of start up $$$.
