A Disillusioned 99'er Shares His Disappointment With The American Dream, Welcomes Death

``It's because I'm a law abiding though worthless, long-term unemployed older man who is surplus population. Had I used my college education to rip people off and steal from the elderly, poor, disabled and main street Americans I would be wearing different shoes now -- a petty king. Hard work, honesty, loving kindness, charity and mercy, and becoming unemployed and destitute unable to pay your bills are all considered foolishness and high crimes in America now. Whereas stealing and lying and cheating and being greedy to excess and destroying the fabric of America is rewarded and protected -- even making such people petty king and petty queens among us.''

Yet another unfortunate member of the bottom economic third of this country, who will soon (like most of them) not even be counted as "unemployed", thanks to his self-euthanizing.
