Forget that their views might be extremist.................those views have been forged by their sweat and tears, and have the approval of God.....don't you know. convinced that the rest of us are slackers.........part of the 'notorious' 47%. I know there is safety in numbers, so maybe that is why you like to identify yourself as part of some big group identity, but I view you as an individual. I've never said anything about 47% of the people being one thing or another, let alone being convinced of it. The idea goes totally against my way of thinking, but make up what ever you want I don't care. I'll just post these corrections as we go. If being thought of as an individual human being is scary for you, it is probably because you don't like your self much (just a guess). In your case, you've disclosed that you've been unable to secure any employment over your life time and that you have become a shut in. I wasn't considering the term slacker for you, you made that up. There are slackers of course but I don't know you well enough to have an opinion about it and I definitely wouldn't apply that label to hundreds of millions in the USA. Why did you bring it up? I am sorry for whatever has kept you from being acceptable in the labor market over the past 40 years or whatever but resenting me is not going to make it any better, of that I am certain.
