    I don't know how people do it. I stopped working last year at the age of 42. I knocked off all of the things on my "Bucket List" within 4 months. I've been watching movies and drinking beer ever since. I'll be going back to work next week. I've concluded that I have become a selfish ass no better than the Africans that I rail against on a regular basis. Thus, the prevention of the collapse of the USA currency through taxation is an idiotic but noble goal. Hope I haven't I lost too many brain cells or I'll be back.

    You need to keep working anyway, you will live longer. People need purpose.

    Work is definitely a human thing and it offers more than pay. "What do you do?" is a common question and we answer it without really thinking about it. Now you know how debilitating unemployment is for people.
