JOB PLAN


I usually don’t get too worked up about politics. A companion plan to television which is today’s Circus ( the Bread is our genetically modified corn comprising most of our diet ). The public taxpayer does build coliseums, to host other circus’s, but they are of very shoddy construction and won’t hold up to a hurricane. Rome’s was so well built that centuries of earthquakes has failed to completely demolish it. We shall leave nothing to our descendents, the American Empire as clouded in mystery and enigma as the Carthage. Politics mean very little. The decisions made are totally divorced from what is shown in public, and elections are pitiful shams. Even local governments just do as they please, or are told by moneyed interests. Your vote is a fart in a wind storm. However, having said all that, it is still delightful to make fun of all the idiots that think it means a damn thing. Ooohhh, Obammy, Obammy, he’s our man, if any half breed Muslim dumbass Kenyan can do it, he sure can! I didn’t watch his Super Wunderbar Job Plan speech last night, but I think I can pretty much sum it up nicely. “My fellow welfare pukes, tonight I’d like to introduce my new jobs plan. Pretty much, it’s the same one I had two years ago. I’ll marginally reduce one tax, put a whole lot of money into paving roads, and call it good. As you know, we’ve seen something like ten million job loses since I introduced this plan the first time, so I’m confident it will achieve the same results before the next election. Thank you, and have a wonderful night.”

Now, I’m certainly not saying there is ANY way to create new jobs. The fundamentals are not there, haven’t been there, and the next time any jobs will be available, they will involve organic farming amidst the radioactive ruins. Any President would have had the same results. I guess what irritates me is that they expect me to buy into all the lies, insulting my intelligence. Peeing on my leg and telling me it’s raining. The fedgov will not be creating any jobs you can use. We are so incompetent, we won’t even be able to go total socialist and put everyone in a Homeland Security uniform for jobs. They would love to, being closet homo Nazi’s to a man, but the entire operational manual they have been taught is Growth And Resource Depletion ( GARD, as in America Is On Guard Against…( fill in the blank ) Communism, Nazism, Terrorism ). That is no longer possible. So, for as long as the economy holds together, which I’ll bet you a donut ain’t much longer, you will need to create your own job if you want one. Now, being the extra special and kind sort of guy that I am, I won’t charge you a dime for this advice( although a few Amazon sales would be nice- down below half my average. I’d say the economy is really tanking again. My sales went down in late 2007, early 2008 the same way ). Here it is free.

You need to sell money savings. Simple, right? But too many small businesses want to sell either luxury or time savings. Forget that crap. Luxury is beyond your client base. The middle class is shrinking, and with that reduction comes the end of businesses catering to pampering clients or doing their grunt work. You still have that to some degree, but the only way to cut cost for these totally indebted people is to cut back on expendable costs. Like cappuccinos or massages or whatever. You need to focus on bringing them a service or good they can’t, literally, do without, and cheaply. The cheapest, with the best quality, wins. Now, this is a grey area. Redbox, DVD’s for a buck a night, is certainly by no means a necessity. Look at Blockbuster and all their misery. People don’t need $5 video rentals. But at a buck, that low price indulgence will be one of the last things to go from the budget. I howl in ecstatic delight that the asswipe scumsuckers at Blockbuster are eating out of their toxic ass. Die, you pukes! I wish all the best to Redbox ( they make money when their product sucks, and no one blames them! Sweet ). Some jobs are more clear cut. A mechanic will make money until the gasoline stops flowing. But a bike mechanic will still eat long after that.

I don’t have gobs of examples for you on desired careers. I can tell you I don’t have one. The food bank will only last as long as surpluses do. And writing this blog is no great assurance either. Supporting me is a luxury ( and thank you ). Unless I get into churning out apocalypse pulp fiction, the business of escapism entertainment lasting as long as the grid and Net, I’ll be tossed away like a Kleenex on the wind. But if you can figure out how to tap into the coming tsunami of drastic cost cutting, you shall be golden in your self employment. Not providing luxury cheaper, not being the lowest cost of unnecessary services, but somehow saving money rather than time. Something like the chest freezer. For a hundred bucks, people could suddenly buy meat at middleman prices the rest of their lives. Okay, that is only as good as the life of the grid, but you get my point I hope. You think the economy sucks now? Wait until things really get seriously screwed. Remember, everything we buy is imported. And our food is not local, but shipped in from great distances. We are very vulnerable to disruption. Be a little more paranoid, because growth isn’t coming back. We are already in the process of devolution. Bank on it, don’t fight it. You’ll hang on a bit longer that way.
