I’ve worked for many years, at the bottom of the economy. So I figure I’ve done plenty of grunt work, and I am not allergic to work.

As Dave Ramsey would say, I’m living like no one else. But he says if you’ll live like no one else, later you get to live like no one else, and I don’t see that happening.

To move to another town I would have to find new medical providers and make arrangements in advance - this would take a while - and since there aren’t any non-menial jobs I’m qualified for, a move would be on spec without any assurance of success - only of substantial cost. (Is there any place where an unskilled worker could make a good living?) Even a move would cost money and I don’t have that right now.

I admire the pioneers and the settlers who moved across continents on spec with only what they could carry, but I’m not sure how feasible that is today if you have no money.

So what are you, hanging out at the library or something? For someone who is so destitute that a 10 cent swing in the price of mac and cheese is supposedly important to you, you spend an awful lot of time chatting on the internet.

Oh my, in order to move you'd have to----make arrangements??? In advance??? Oh the humanity. You are a waste of space and a waste of air.

I'll tell you why you have so much trouble. It's YOU. You're the defect in the system. It's not the system. It's not car loans. It's not mass transit. It's you. You live by the credo "I can't." That's why the marketplace has given you such negative feedback for so long.

You're probably even more of a downer in person. And if you really are as old as you say you are, it's too late for you. You're just a negative person and your attitude has shaped your results.
