'WE'RE SHUTTING IT DOWN': COORDINATED ECONOMIC BLACKOUT SET FOR NOV. 25 - DEC. 2

[Lurker Deluxe]

41. You are right

I am not thinking clearly.

I will do this, become unemployed, and then what?

I would have more time to protest, I guess that would be one advantage. At 58, may have a hard time replacing the six figure salary though. I could start a go fund me ... you in for a couple of $K a month, I have bills ...

How is screwing up your life "fighting back"?

I do not spend any money as it is, I do help my 90+ year old parents every weekend, cook them some larger easy to reheat meals, mow the yard, clean the house, do their shopping. Should I tell them sorry, this week you are just out of luck ... some people on the internet told me not to go shopping, hope you make it. And sorry, I will not be able to make it to Thanksgiving ... can not buy the gas to drive the 100 miles one way. Maybe I will see you next week, unless someone else tells me to stay inside, I know you can not get grocery delivery and do not drive, eat the dog. Oh, and BTW I am now unemployed, your electric is most likely to get cut off next month ... but hey, "I am a Patriot".

"I considered it. and thank you ... but, no thanks"

I get my ass up every day and I go to work and I am fairly compensated for that. I understand that some do not have this advantage, sorry. I am not going to screw up my life, I have very little of it left.

I would be willing to bet that this will go over poorly, on a Holiday. But maybe, I will be able pick up the premade Thanksgiving meal at the local grocery and drive the 100 miles in record time because the stores will be empty and the freeway clear. So, I do appreciate the cause, thanks.
