Thanks for the comeback. I know what you mean, I agree. You are describing the symptoms of or results of a stealth economic decline in standards of the USA. Simply because we exported all our valuable wealth creating tax PAYING manufacturing jobs that CONTRIBUTE by importing FAR more than we export.
They left us with OVERHEAD “sales and service” jobs. They create nothing of use. The medical system is part of the Gov’t supported medical sales and service sector. The Manufacturing sector supports all the other sectors including gov’t jobs. The gov’t is having a harder time supporting too many sectors. With way too many tax absorber sectors.
Push has been coming to shove for a long time now, and I think all the crap that’s been going on is climaxing. My friend has two boys, one an orthopedic surgeon the other anesthesiologist. They both regret it and wished they went into gov’t supported real estate construction. Serving the Gov’t supported real estate market. You make a lot of cash money, work your own hours, and no college.
They started “corporationising” doctors and surgeons, oncologists etc. They get salaries now and no malpractice insurance I think too. They are also buying out all the small land lords, corporationing them too into “Fairfiend Properties” They are expensive apartments, but I hear they take section 8. You put up 30% of your pay and uncle Dopey pays the rest to the corporation.
In fact its ok NOT to pay corporations. Look at all the corporate banks that nobody paid back after buying. Now the people can not pay when renting thanks to Bozo Biden. I know two little land lords that stopped getting paid.
Look, anybody after 1970 that bought a Toyota, a Honda, a VW, Nissan, Acura, Suzuki, etc etc unwittingly contributed to the decline of the USA. My mechanic friend is from Salvador, 1985.
He speaks perfect English, drives a Chevy Tahoe, and has a Harley Davidson. He is more of a patriotic American than many of my third generation Americans. I’m so happy for him. He was an employee of my friend that retired and he took over the business. He is service sector also supported by Gov’t that imposes inspections Check Engine Lights on cars to generate revenue for him. Annual inspections too $$$.
