   Not enough rewards not to be lazy in this country.  The system does not   
   motivate for productivity.  Isn't a problem I can solve, so just going   
   to go with the flow.   
      
   I hear the experts a whining, but I don't see any incentive or action.   
   Let the over paid fools whine and find someone else to tax for their   
   iodiotic theocracy of statism.   
      
   But still, I out produce 75% of the people in this country, I think I   
   should target much less.  Need to find a job in my profession that has a   
   3 day work week and holidays.  Think that is going to be my next goal.   
      
   Good part about this is that I am learning that the less I make, I pay a   
   disproportial less amount of taxes and really might not need to work   
   paying taxes at all.  Certainly don't need to work as hard as I have in   
   the past.   
      
   If you have criticisms of this, I suggest you take it to the 70% others   
   in this country that produce nothing but welfare whining.  As there are   
   only about 30% of us that work at non-government jobs and pay any   
   signifigant amount of income tax.   
      
   And this sheeples is stepping off the treadmill.   
   --   
   Time to ask ask, is our government serving us or are we serving the   
   government?
