Kind of an odd deal how the classes are settling out in this country.
The taxes and health care issues in this country are making it tough on anyone self employed. Too small to get represented with loopholes, and too 'wealthy' for the other classes that don't own stuff so the taxes keep piling up out of jealousy. Any more a self employed person has to be gaining assets, but no dollars at all. Assets are the only loophole to protect against some taxes - income, social security, etc. self employed is a feast of famine deal, and they tax the bejeebers out of you on the feast years, so nothing left to weather the famine years.

Younger folk are told they need 6 years of intensive college to compete - and then are too educated in books and not real world that they don't know how to work, sit in their parents basement with their multiple graduation degrees.....
We need more trade school folk. They hav been squeezed out of our education system.
