All About the Benjamins

 A few weeks ago, I heard that the BLACKS were demanding that California pay them reparations because of slavery...  


 days ago, I heard the minister from California saying that paying reparations to BLACKS was the only way to stop them from stealing from white owned businesses...

Sounds like BRIBERY to me but since it is coming from BLACKS...  it is ok...  and justified because of white supremacy that supposedly still exists.

Paying BLACKS reparations will only increase the hatred for blacks among the whites and increase the expressism of racism here in the USA.

BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY...  it is all about MONEY...  more than racism, equity, equality, BLM, or becoming WOKE...  MONEY cures it all...
  • No need for parenting
  • No need for educating
  • No need for learning skills
  • No need for practicing
Just give me the frigging benjamins...

I am reminded of FOX News reporting on illegal immigration at our southern border...  and how the DRUG CARTELS from Mexico are controlling the flow of immigration and drugs into the United States.  This reporter also said...   IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY...  the benjamins...

If you ask a billionaire is they are ever going to retire and stop trying to earn more money and all of them will tell you NO...  It is all about how much money I can earn in my lifetime.

The railroad train derailment in Palestine occured because the railroad did not want to spend money on preventive maintenance, so they could generate MORE MONEY.

People go to college so that they can earn more money during their lifetimes while trying to avoid paying high taxes to the government...  by avoiding taxes, the government eventually has to raise taxes.

Hollywood Actors/Actresses want to make more movies and earn more money to buy bigger houses in several locations...  more and more money earned the happier their lives will be.

Manufactures build products that are of a low quality and see those products to the consumer in order for them to generate more and more money.  When my parents were first married they purchased appliance that lasted 20-30 years.  When I got married, the appliances we purchased lasted only 10 years if we were lucky.

In graduate school for business, I was taught BUILT IN OBSOLESCENCE...   in other words, build products so they do not last long which means the consumer will have to replace them more frequently and we can earn more money.

Money like drugs will never solve our problems...  only make them worse...  but, until we see that, we will get caught up in the money cycle like a mouse running on the inside of a wheel trying to get somewhere...

As one gets older and eventually retires, one begins to learn that money is no longer that important.  Sure one has to eat and go to the doctor.  But one sees that money only creates the illusion of happiness.  Money does not stop one from getting old.  Money does not stop the loss of hearing or the reduction of eyesight.  Money does not help one sleep any better nor prevent urological disorders.  Money does not stop tooth decay, weakening bones and muscles, and forgetfulness.  Money does not buy you frienships.

One of these days, a majority of Americans will realize that there is more to life than money, cars, big homes, expensive vacations, and going to professional sporting events or musical concerts.  It is relatively easy to earn money and even easier to spend it... but it is not so easy to live simply and enjoy life around you.

I don't mean live like a MONK in a cave...  but perhaps living like Native Americans lived...  rejoicing in life, respecting life and the life around them.  Extremely grateful for what they had been given...  they needed no benjamins...  they literally had everything they needed...  their lives were full and complete.
