DUmbass kpete, as usual doing nothing but a Khephra-ish half-witted copy-and-paste, nabs a whiny deadbeat piece from fatso Moore.
It's a real DUmmy celebration of Labor Day:

Work ‘till you drop. Stop. Drop. Get up. Do it again.

Worker’s Ode to Labor Day 2011
By Donna Smith
Work ‘till you drop. Stop. Drop. Get up. Do it again.
Work. Be grateful to be working. Work harder. Work ‘till you drop. Stop. Drop. Get up. Do it again.
Give up time with growing children. Work. Keep bills paid. Years pass. Chances pass.
Work ‘till you drop. Stop. Drop. Get up. Do it again.
Get older. Get scared to work less hard. Work harder.
No time for neighbors, community, friends, or the laziness of leisure. No riches. No home left.
Work ‘till you drop. Stop. Drop. Get up. Do it again.
No savings. No pension. All spent staying barely healthy enough to work harder.
.....Blah, blah, whine, blah, whine, woe is me, blah, not my fault, blah, damn rich, blah, blah, whine...
Work ‘till you drop. Stop. Drop. Get up. Do it again. Then stop. When you finally expire – literally and figuratively. Unless the wealthy and the powerful figure out a way to prolong our lives a little longer to make a few more dollars as they inject us with pain killers and tranquilizers so we cannot even scream on the way out of their profit-making agendas.
Labor Day? That’s all day, every day, in every way. America has no holidays. And certainly not for workers or those who wish they were. We are someone else’s holidays.

Noob DUmmy Kathnumber confuses Labor Day with Not One Damn Dime Day:

1. Work ‘till you drop.
Absolutely right. I was off today but glad to say I didn't buy shit.
This is hilarious. No one ever told DUmmy Curmudgeoness that her grandfather was a drunkard.

2. This reminds me of stories of my grandfather who worked in a tin mill. He often could not make it home and would drop in the yard or street when his shift was over, and my grandmother and the kids would have to help him get into the house.
This happens a lot to William Rivers Pitt, and he doesn't even work.

5. I'm self-employed. I can choose whether to work and when not
to work. If I work, the bills get paid. If I don't, they don't. The equation is simple. I work 7 days a week always. I don't take days off. Sometimes, I take a few hours off to do something else. Then, I go back to work.
I've been self-employed since 1974. There it is.
It's cute that DUmmy MineralMan considers collecting SSI to be "self employment".
DUmmy HughBeaumont takes the classic DUmp democrat postition that it's impossible to make it in this crummy country, there's no way, so there's no use in even trying, it's all a scam, so just give up:

15. See, that's just something people say that simply isn't true. Whatever this is, it's NOT simple.
If it WERE simple, everyone would be doing it and there's a myriad of reasons everyone ISN'T participating in this "ownership society" crap.
What would my product or service be? Who would my audience be? With what money would I start this business with? How would I pay for advertising? Would I make enough to pay all of my bills? When you own a business, your income isn't set in stone - some months you'll be making around $200, some others you'll be making $1000, if that. What will I do that a corporation/large player couldn't easily undercut me on costs and shipping? How will I afford health care costs? What if I get so burnt I just want to take time off sometime? How am I going to be the one to beat the 1 out of 10 startup success rate? You cannot say "just, plain and simple, work really really HARD" because there are probably more than a handful on this board alone that have gone through the ringer and will tell you that such Horatio Alger yarns are nothing but homespun BUNK. If hard work was all it took to be successful in life, then why are so many people NOT successful?
Blah, blah, blah, whine, whine, whine, no use trying, blah, impossible to make a living, whine, blah.....
But that sort of Commie nonsense takes money away from rich people getting richer and the MIC's adventures of choice. Plus it gives workers an atom speck of power, and we certainly can't have that.
In order to have winners, you have to have losers, so most decent and civilized people feel some measure of gratitude toward DUmp democrats for reliably filling that role.
Without a teeming underclass, who would we hire for odd jobs? Just don't allow them inside. They steal.

12. I suppose I should consider myself lucky that I have a job...
It is not unusual for me to doze off while driving on my way home. I don't sleep or eat much during the week, and on the weekends I have no interest in doing anything except becoming intoxicated enough to try to numb the dread of having to go back there Monday morning.
Sounds like the intoxication isn't limited to the weekend.
