The Democrat America: Karl's Dream Realized

This could be a continuation of "Communism In America" but I can't remember if that would make this blog 4 or 5 of this series so I decided to think of it as a spiritual successor of those posts. 

Minimum wage in some States is now higher than what I made in a long time. We can expect inflation to rise as well as unemployment. When did a man or woman stop dreaming of anything bigger? I would not want to work at Burger King for the rest of my life. I would not want to pump gas into people's cars for the rest of my life. I would not want to work as an intern all my life. At some point, I would love to not have to rely on somebody for my income. I want to rely on myself, eventually. But there are some who would. 

Why not strive to be a doctor, or an animal doctor, a painter, a famous singer? why not reach for the stars, literally by becoming an astronaut? Capitalists for years have said socialism, communism or marxism what ever you decide to call it, breeds laziness. This is becoming more true by the minute. 

We have gotten to the point where people are wanting a minimum wage of $15 per hour. Heck, we have people wanting a minimum wage! Forget the amount! The fact that people want to be paid a standard amount for any kind of work basically says: I can be as lazy or productive as I please and I do not have to worry about my pay getting lowered. Ever have horrible service at a store or eatery? Somebody is thinking what you just read. 

We have a group of people who are perfectly fine with not wanting to take the leap into higher education to make more money in life. 

Heck, now that California has $15 per hour, what's the need for a college degree? As soon as I graduate, I would have spent tens of thousands of dollars for a pay not much higher per hour. I might as well save the money I would have spent at school and just stick with the $15 per hour. Oh wait! We have a president saying he will make college free too?! Sign me up! 

This laziness is incredible. 

I've been to Denmark. 200 Kroner is $40 here in the US. Their money has a bigger number for a reason! It worth nothing. The people have nothing. That's why the crime rates are so low over there: there is nothing really to steal from anybody. 

One last point: I'm all for fitness, but I don't feel like owning a bike as my only mode of personal transportation.
