Sorry not a Republican either. They destroy good natural capitalism just as much as Democrats do. A true capitalist knows that success is not done alone. You must work with others. If they are destitute then your assets go down. You need everyone around you to be flush in order to achieve what you want. It is political idiocy that causes the problems not the nature of capitalism. Politicians warp the truth of it in order to gain social power not assets. Social power is not capitalism. It is pure ego that cries out for undivided attention. Political leaders require notice, that is their drive. They may have started off with good intentions but somewhere along the lines the attention warped their desire into a need for social attention and control.
Greed is not natural capitalism nor is disregarding the unfortunate as I explained above. Greed kills the golden goose. It is stupid to be greedy. Greed is a fear of losing or being alone. It springs from a mind that is desperate.
You canāt be a capitalist if you are socially isolated.
Just how the heck could everyone be equal? We are all different with different needs, desires and drives. There is no equality. How could society exist if all were equal? Basic rights? Ok define the basic rights of society and the basic rights of the individualā¦ Society is an entity just as an individual is. One cannot be without the other.
It depends upon the education. Does English history help you to get a job? How about Calculus? If you wish to be a successful plumber why do you need art? Education is often misdirected. Learning is fantastic but, learning fluff does not put food on the table nor keep a roof over your familyās heads.
Ahh but a govenment cannot be capitalistic. Our US government is a Republic government and liquid( meaning control changes hands). It holds no personal assets. All assets and deficits are be legal definition ,communal.
If any governmental system were capitalistic it would not have its books in the red so deep. Not many Government have profit. Oh heck, I canāt think of one that is not knee deep indebt to another Government or its people.
Capitalism is behavior not a system. Even socialists or communists exhibit capitalistic behavior. You can not hide nature for very long. You can try to deny it but, nature always wins.
Folks calling capitalism a system have warped what capitalism is.
Sorry, Calculus is a great tool if you know how to use it. Does a baker need it though? How about a bricklayer or a kindergarten teacher? What most countries do is hand the wrong tools out to provide the person with a career that suits themā¦ A few even try to dictate which tools you will use. You have no choice but to become a nurse or teacher or bricklayer, your Government just told you what your career will be.
There is no evidence for food shortages here, much less an increase. Any questions? (The burden of proof for food shortages, increased or otherwise, is on the one referring to them. But if you must, just go into any grocery store in the country or look at your upside down bell curve.)
Bell curves are shaped the right way up for a bell. Thatās the point. There are less people who are morbidly skinny and extremely obese than standard.
You know kids that are obese are not considered abused. Why? Kids that are starved in this country and others are considered abused. Both cause health issues and endanger the childās life. So should not the parents of obese children be held accountable just as those that starve their kids?
Why indeed Iām a grown up who just lost 3 stone (42lbs) in 3 months. Itās up to me to change my lifestyle, kids however are seldom responsible particularly when the parents are living a fat lifestyle themselves. Itās not easy to loose weight, but it should be encouraged if not by law then by common sense.
Whatās terrible about children is fat children often become fat adults who could suffer much of their life with high risks of heart disease and diabetes etc.
Wheew 42lbs in 3 months that is alot. I hope you stablize at your desired goal. My mind went directly to the health risks of losing so much so fast. I hope all is well with you.
You are quite right about the lifestyle. It is amazing that people cannot see the similarity between obesity and starvation.
Common sense seems to be in short supply within the human species. Those that cannot afford to care for children should have the common sense to abstain from intercourse. Those that have kids that wear adult sized clothes and that cannot play with other kids should have common sense to see that their child is unhealthy.
Some dumb things have been made into laws and then there are laws that are good that lack common sense.
I consulted my Dr and he was impressed, and said I seemed to be doing it right. He weighed me then, I was pleased with the weight loss. Just 2 stone to go, or maybe 3 after Christmas.
I did hill walking and cycling five times a week, sometimes its good to be unemployed if you want to lose weight fast. I canāt do my exercise atm, because it is raining all the time.
I took my kid with me, and by kid I mean my dog, he is now looking more muscly than a butchers dog, and my calves have definition. Iām eating a reduced fat diet but 3 meals a day. Starvation diets are a waste of time. As is overdoing it and having a coronary.
I will say this hill walking is recommended, but only if you have a hill. The reason being it puts your heart rate in the fat burning zone, but does not force you to go through the wall where you are only burning muscle glycogen, if you can keep your heart rate about twice normal and no more you should lose fat rather than just be hungry when you finished because of low blood glucose.
Well good for you !! You have shown common sense in this endeavor. See now if we could only convince othersā¦ We could change the world, maybe not . I understand about dogs being kids, our cats and dogs are our kids in this family.
Yeah because he is the pack lowest animal, he is the clown and never really grew up, heās perfectly happy being on the bottom rung because all he does is follow me around. Cats however are always at the top, or normally they are. Very independent and its a wonder they ever form social groups without killing each other.
I got fed up of being seen as fat, which is why I think peer pressure as long is it isnāt bullying is vital. I feel a lot better and Iāve lost the beer baby.
You misunderstand cats They are not independent nor are they dominant normally. They are much like dogs. Now if you talk about wild feline species you are right. Domesticated cats especially mix breeds are very much like dogs in their behavior, that is if you treat them like you would a dog. Most folks do not and so the independent top cat myth prevails. If you do not socialize with your cat like you do your dog then of course that cat will behave in that way as would a dog. Cat love being a part of a family just as dogs do, they, if nurtured, within a family atmosphere are highly social. We have hand raised over 56 felines. All come when called by their names and they obey simple commands just as dogs do. Sit, stay etc.
They act and behave just like 3 year old human children, just as dogs do. Give em an inch and they run off with a mile
Yes peer pressure when positive can truly help us. Having the wisdom to use it positively as you have is fantastic.
Well I bow to your wisdom on that one, I always bread mousers which meant I seldom saw the cat and when I did if I got too playful with her or him they gave me a scar or two to remind me who was boss. Considering Iām nearly 6 foot and quite large build that certainly was some independent behaviour. I loved those cats, pity one got run down though and the others went over to the cat lady down the road who used to feed them steaks and stuff, theyāre loyal to a point but no dogs. But in this country people donāt keep them in doors so they learn independence. There is already a huge wild cat presence where I live.
Hard work and Iām no spring chicken so harder than most. First time Iāve done it and I am pleased with myself.
Oh I have scars a plenty from our playful kids, I just have gotten used to their painful loving ways. Out here in the boonies we are able to rescue and care for a colony of cats and dogs. Most come in and out of the house as they please. They are mousers, snakers, rabbiters, ratters, grasshopperers or what ever edible crittur happens to come past them, the dogs also hunt with the cats. The most awsome hunt we ever witnesed was 8 cats rounding up a rather large rabbit. They worked together to bring it down. Our largest male walked off with it with the others close behind , all shared in the feast. Many times the cats bring home dead gifts to be left on the porch or unfortunately accidently live ones released into the house. Nothing like trying to chase down a scared crow or a slithering snake as dogs and cats join the chase. We have learned not to have breakables laying around. Yippee, Right now we house 64 kids, 21 of which are the canine variety. Cats and dogs raised side by side as family take on each others traits. No one tells them they should not. Our meter readers do not like getting out of their vehicles, it freaks them out to have cats surrounding them and meowing oddly and growling at them. Cats like dogs tend to be most loyal to their stomachs, if they find a superior food source, they are gone. No wonder your cats deserted you mine would if they had such treats
You should be pleased with your hard work, its not an easy thing no matter what the age. Although I do think older age does provide the ability to have more self discipline,Yes?
Allegedly. Iām not so sure but I suppose I might of given up sooner if younger. Bloody raining again, thatās a whole weeks worth now. Looks like its not going to brighten up any time soon, so back to normal I suppose probably 'til after Crimbo.
Well heck and here I thought it would be some really neat exotic (exotic to me that is)holiday celebrating something I never heard of. At least I learned a new word for an old thing
