Reply #107: four jobs for two parents [View All]

it's amazing that there aren't more tragedies

we have unrealistic ideas abt human physiology in this society, DAMN few of us are martha stewart (sleeps 4 hrs a night) -- most of us need 8 or 9 hrs a night of sleep or we're psycho and believe me, i've looked into this, it is genetics, you CANNOT change how much sleep you need a night without taking a dangerous drug like cocaine or amphetamine -- i've seen some kids do OK with ritalin/adderal but they don't themselves have kids and i'm not confident that going 72 hrs w.out sleep on ANY drug is a good decision -- the drug i tried was amphetamine (dexadrine) and the effects on me were just dangerous to anyone around me so i'm not gonna try any others...i'm gonna sleep the hours my body needs to sleep and when i can't, i'm not gonna drive, i'm not gonna care for babies

if you're both working two jobs, AND you have a new baby in the home, you're both sleep deprived, and a tragedy is almost inevitable

in this case, the baby paid, in other cases, you rear end somebody and a stranger pays, but SOMEBODY pays if you're working 16 hrs a day

as for jail time, that should be for whoever created a society where one couple with a baby has to work four jobs to put food on the table, but my perfect world doesn't exist

protect yourself people, if you have to work two jobs per person to support a child REFUSE to reproduce and create more cannon fodder for the elite

they'll keep exploiting us as long as we keep breeding, the upper middle class/smart people no longer breed, what does that tell you??? there is NO benefit to having children in this society, and guess what, if you don't bother, somebody else will do it for you anyways, the planet is in no danger of suddenly becoming uninhabited by humans

don't take on the huge and unthankful job of having kids in a world where there's ZERO upside
