Just an observation early this morning:

I am sitting in the parking lot of the shopping center in which my part-time job as a dentist is located, and the one thing common to virtually every store, small restaurant, and franchise is that there is a “help wanted” sign or a “now hiring” sign in the window. All of my patients who are in management tell me that they can’t get anyone to work in decent reasonably high paying quality jobs which used to be coveted. I am puzzled by the psychology of all this, given that if I recall correctly the last federal unemployment checks were sent out in August or September and I don’t know what these people are living on. I for one who came from a very progressive, liberal, humanistic family was told that I had best better work every day of my life and there was no Such thing as time off to find myself or to explore my consciousness.

When I say I don’t understand, that’s a rhetorical statement. I personally think this is bad decision making on the part of what I suppose are millions of people. Just an observation…

I'm sure the DUmmies will use this as an example for thr need for a $25.00 per hour minimum wage

Perhaps we need some more workplace regulations (with a bureaucracy paid for by higher taxes to enforce them).

Or perhaps we should make sure that all of those people who aren't working are still given plenty to live on regardless of their work.

Oh, and it's obviously caused by racism too.

I want to know how I too can quit my job and maintain my lifestyle indefinitely.
