This week’s topic: work.
FUCK WORK!
Have you ever seen those “FUCK WORK” bumper stickers on the back of cars? Funny how those bumper stickers are usually plastered on the back of shit-boxes. It’s not just that those sticker-mad people have shitty jobs because, by all means, they do. What’s really making these people say, “FUCK WORK”?
I’ll tell you what it is – it’s how society has treated them.
What’s this bullshit about America being the land of opportunity? Look up the statistics and you’ll find America is one of the most difficult countries to live a life where you’re movin’ on up like “The Jeffersons”.

There you go. I’m not just talking out my ass.
If you’re born rich, you’ll probably die rich. If you’re born poor, you’re probably poorer when you’re six feet under.
And guess what … all poor people do is work. I’m not talking about the homeless, or anything like that – I’m talking about the working poor: the most miserable people on earth. This includes the American middle-class.
And what are they working for? They’re working to make money. But what is money? Money is debt. All money is created by increasing the national debt. To put it simply, the government says it wants to print some money (capital creation), so it sells treasury bonds to the Federal Reserve, which is no more “federal” than Federal Express … yes, the Fed is a private company posing to look like it’s part of the government … and then the fed grants capital in the form of …
Wait. That’s getting complicated. Here’s an easier way to think about it.
The government has this “credit card” issued by the Federal Reserve. Right now there’s a $14-trillion limit on that “credit card” and the U.S. national debt is fast reaching its ceiling. Just a few months ago the debt ceiling was $12 trillion, but the government decided to raise their limit because they’re cool like that.
Essentially the government is taking out cash advances from that “credit card” to keep the country functioning, which in essence means that every dollar in your wallet or purse is not based on gold like it was 100 years ago – it’s based on debt that the government has to pay back. So every dollar you make is based off debt, which means that money is meaningless. Money is worth nothing – actually money is worth less than nothing because it represents debt. So when you’re working to make money, you’re working for something that has no meaning, and when your taxes are being taken out of your paycheck, you’re basically paying the government’s interest on its debts, and all that interest is going to the world’s wealthiest people; the few dozen or so who control the world and live off the hard work of the slaves … you and me.
Cruel world, isn’t it? But it’s the cruelest for the true working poor who don’t realize they are really just slaves as they struggle to get by. They’re going around driving their shit-boxes and giving the world the finger because they’re the ones getting fucked.
In a nutshell, that is why work sucks, and that is why this week I’m telling work to fuck off and suck it!
Tomorrow when you go to work, think about how pointless it is for you to be there. Kind of makes you realize the real world is just about as smoke and mirrors as the world we see in the movies.

Great, great article. Even worse: our big grocery stores purchase off of credit, as well, which means that when the dollar crashes, things are going to get ugly as fuck. I still hope it does hit bottom, though, so we can attempt to start over…if I haven’t already jumped ship by then.
Agreed. The american dream has been dead for awhile now…but never has it sucked so much to be part of the lower middle class. Anyone who can get by without succumbing to the 9-5, cheers to you.
Nicely put. The Fed pisses me right off…It’s like naming a town in China U.S.A., and then claiming all the products from there were “Made in U.S.A.”
I always thought of money as being pretty worthless, (you can’t even get a good fire going with it!) but to now see it as actual debt is really unnerving. It’s sad that we as a society should all need a figurative “mommy&daddy” to tell us how to be responsible, and yet when that “mommy&daddy” decide to go on a coke bender and not pay their dealer we get stuck with the debt, plus interest. Mommy&Daddy skip town (get voted out or resign)and can’t come back, but they also don’t have to clean up the mess. Oh yeah, and they got a couple 8balls on us. We as citizens can’t realistically do anything but scream to the bastards “FUCK WORK”. So yeah, I just need a shitty car to put that bumper sticker on and I’m all set.
So true. The Fed is owned by a handful of families: Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Warburgs and a few others. They basically “loan” the U.S. money and collect the interest.
In 1963 JFK signed Executive Order 11110 which allowed the U.S.Treasury to print money based on the silver standard. The idea was to put the Fed out of business. A few months later JFK was assassinated and the Treasury money was quickly taken out of circulation. We would have no national debt and no income tax if we were using U.S. Treasury money.
Right in the constitution it says only the Treasury can print and circulate money, so the Fed is completely illegal and unconstitutional.
