DUMBASS DRIVING

*
note: I was actually quite impressed with the movie "Aftershock" ( the 2012 version ) which is playing on Vudu, free with ads.  A $2 million movie from Chile is better than some of these crappy $200 million Hollywood turds.  The first third is good enough, but not much happens.  Hang in there, it suddenly takes off with no warning.
*

The November 11, 2017 “Market Watch” had an article on poor suffering Senior Citizens ( capitalized to denote their extra special status ) who were forced to live in RV’s and follow seasonal work.  Now, as you might recall, I have little love lost for geriatrics who act as if their poverty is my fault and I should pay more taxes to keep their narrow pasty asses in Viagra and upright on the golf course.  What?  Their lives weren’t good enough?  Sucking down cigarettes ( which I pay more taxes on because after their generation puffed away and got cancer now it is decided I’m not allowed to kill myself ) and swilling scotch by the gallon, living back when fast food was tasty and the cars were made of real steel, going to school for free instead of paying the equivalent of a house for an education.

*

And now, rather than having the good grace to die off naturally after a good life, they want to live forever.  You’re seventy years old and still working for Amazon during the Christmas season?  I should even live that long, OR have any jobs available.  Stop your sniveling.  Okay, I’m kind of joking.  Working at Amazon when you are fifty would be bad enough.  All day on the concrete slab?  Brutal.  But the article, which was an interview of the author of the book “Nomadland”, made pitiful sobbing sounds about Amazon paying these poor suffering dears more money.  Now you want ME to pay more for books?  A tax on my pitiful education since I can’t go to a real college since your generation of hump-wits screwed that one up by insisting everyone needed a degree ( rising demand, rising price ).

*

Amazon doesn’t pay enough at fifty percent above minimum wage?  Why are they even paying THAT much?  Remember what happened with Wal-Mart raising their damn wages near twice minimum wage?  They went from crap quality merchandise to add crap quality food, lobbied for increased Food Stamp recipients and were instrumental in getting their Kenyan immigrant to transfer their health care costs to the taxpayer.  What is WRONG with you people? 

*

I wouldn’t buy that book if it was rubbed with 18 year old virgin crotch juice and sprinkled with cocaine ( why I felt I needed to stipulate that the female was of legal age but then threw in illegal drug use, I couldn’t tell you ).  The author was saying her personal perception was that only rich bitches got to tool around in expensive RV’s, but while researching the book realized there were definitely a few who were desperately poor living in the things and sometimes being unable to both fill up the gas tanks and afford heat for their tin boxes.  I’m not going to make fun of old bastards and their medical bills.  I’m not a complete monster.

*

But I will say, WHY?  You are paying rent in an RV park, and heat because you are living in cold ass Nevada or Kansas to work for Amazon.  Why not just go down south and live in Arizona over the winter.  You aren’t working, but you aren’t paying rent ( well, whatever the seasonal fee is for the stay, if anything-but only one sixth or one eighth the private park amount ) or heat.  Shouldn’t that about even out?  If you didn’t want to park with the other tens of thousands of Kunuk snowbirds, there is a private park ( featured in the YouTube channel “Cheap RV Living” ) that is a few hundred dollars for something like half the year.  You need to use their central sewage and water and have your own power.  It is just a piece of dirt with no hook-ups ( I think they have wi-fi ).  But at, whatever, $60 a month or something? 

*

Of course, even better is the lot of junk land you buy and have only a one time series of payments.  If you are living Social Security check to check, you move out of the RV and park at Wal-Mart or out of town on the side of the road at the end of the month and take what would have been rent money and put $100 down on a chunk of E-Bay land ( granted, E-Bay kind of blows anymore.  Just do a search for where you want to live and plenty of other companies show up.  Private financing, a small down, they do all the paperwork.  Avoid Utah-those asswhores hate off grid folk and will harass you accordingly ).

*

If you have to wait for another check for gas money to get there, so be it.  Work one more month for extra cash?  Why not.  You’ll need some solar panels and water container and such.  But at least you are getting off the hamster wheel of rent and long distance travel.  How much nicer would it be to grow a garden and raise chickens?  Or do you like working menial jobs way past the point of retirement?  You are going to be poor either way.  Working and paying rent and spending $200 to fill up the tank to get to the next job or not working but having far less expenses.  Same differences. 

*

You are falling for the old paradigm that working long and working hard rewards you.  Buzzz.  Wrong answer.  As we collapse further economically, the asset stripping moves up the food chain.  The poor are already screwed, liable to end up in jail after not being able to pay a fine.  The middle class lost their home equity and 401k pensions eight years ago.  The 9% Gatekeeper For The Elite are next, with none of their Make Work jobs secure ( the Elite will just skip town and move overseas ).  Do I have too much sympathy?  No, not really.  Everyone knows about the Great Depression, World War Two rationing, the 70’s Oil Embargo/Factory Move followed by high inflation, the 80’s Union Busting, the 90’s Asian markets collapse, the 2000 Tech Wreck, and Enron.  You thought you were safe?

*

Hell, I knew in the 80’s that 401k’s were dangerous when they rolled them out replacing corporate pensions.  It was all over the mainstream media.  Where was grandpa then?  Living in a cave?  Anyone with half a brain knew homes were extremely overvalued.  You didn’t need to be able to time the housing bubble crash to know equity was an illusion.  Okay, so they screwed up.  They trusted the system.  But STOP working for the same asswhores that screwed you over.  Actually retire.  Just learn to live a bit lower on the luxury scale.  And you.  Yes, YOU.  Why haven’t you bought a piece of junk land yet?

*

Anyone can buy tax delinquent lots of land for $500.  You don’t even need to buy desert land for thousands too much.  Like I did.  Learn from my ignorance.  Go to your county courthouse, or the next county over ( well, just look it up online nowadays ) and find out about land anyone can afford.  It might be next to a meth cooker, or a band of feral rednecks.  So what.  Don’t live there now if you don’t want to.  Just be ready to if you have no other choice.  This is your best economic collapse asset.  Better than gold or FLIR scopes or freeze dried foods.  Debt free living squat, safe from the out of control ravenous parasitic bankers.
