Luckily those ideas can be passed on through the times without having to preserve an individual. I appreciate your thoughts for the cause though.

Any excuse to freeze your brain. You're welcome.

I don't disagree that you guys are right if there would just be no system anymore right now. It wouldn't work. I am just saying it could be viable given the sufficient understanding of the idea. Admittedly, with a government the size of jupiter it is hard to imagine living without it fully.

Oh...I can imagine a system without government...my butt hurts just thinking about it. 🙁

Instead of civil service, split it up into lots of different independent services.

Hmm, kinda like what we had before wal-mart. Then of course, walmart came, and we got everything from one place.

If the system failed, I'd lose my 401K. I cannot allow the system to fail!

Yeah, the system sure knows how to enslave its people.

Hang on, that sounds familiar.

Hey, they practically double my money. I'm not complaining.

And where's that money coming from?

A small percentage of my paycheck each month. It is not mandatory, I choose to use it. I don't have to, you know. I also play Texas Hold'em at the casinos once in a while. I choose to do that as well.

So. They aren't doubling your money at all, are they?

Yes, they are by adding 50% to each dollar, plus the money made from mutual funds it equals way more than double. I have made thousands of dollars already off of money I basically can live without.

As far as the Texas Hold'em thing goes, I'm way ahead. I'm about 700 dollars over, and I usually play tournaments that cost 40 dollars to play.

So the extra money is not coming from your paycheck, is it?

Hell no. That's the whole point. Like I said, the system has to work or I don't get my 401K.

Yeah, but someone else is paying your shit. Hardly fair. You should just get your tax back and do with what you earn what you want.

I'd rather just pay my taxes, utilize my 401K, and live a lifestyle I can afford until I retire. Then, when I get my 401K check, I can do whatever I want. I believe in the system. As long as I don't die before I retire, it will work for me. And if I do die, then that money goes to my family. And like I said, it's money I can live without so it's a safe gamble.

I do well at that card game as well. I learned one thing. I'm not a bad bluffer. 😎

Well, as I said, either someone else is paying for your stuff, someone that actually worked for it or you lose more than you make. Either seems kinda shit.

What the hell are you talking about? What stuff? And I won't lose more than I make, I'd only lose 7% of each paycheck that I put into it, money that I already live without. Plus, in Nevada there is no state tax since the gaming pays for it. Now I'm going to find you and kill you for making me explain this far more than I'd like.

No, you don't understand. But it doesn't matter, lets talk about that Snipes fella again.
