This little blog has been brought to you by people who insist on "having their cake" and "eating it too."
I come from a very diverse background. Not ethnically, but diverse in what I've seen and been exposed to. I wouldn't go so far to as to say I'm a person of the world, but I have seen things from all perspectives of life; which has helped me come to the conclusion that in cases involving one's own government, you can not, simply, "have your cake and eat it too."
Something that rather ticks me off is people who want to do things outside of governmental jurisdiction, yet want good ol' Uncle Sam to provide for them. I have no issues with people who deal drugs, prostitute, gamble illegally, so long as they don't get in the way of my life.
However, what bothers me is when people as such- who are WORKING OUTSIDE "THE SYSTEM", somehow want the system to provide for them.
You can't have it both ways. You can't want to avoid the law at all costs, but expect the government to provide you protection, justice, etc. That's like someone selling drugs, but expecting free health care. If you make your money in a non-taxable way, other people shouldn't have to provide for you.
In other ways, not just with the government, people do this all the time. Like say you're moving out of an apartment, and the place your leaving wants YOU to find the new roommate, but if they don't like the person you choose-- you still owe them rent. That's fucking bullshit. Can't have it both ways.
Make up your minds. Either join the system and reap its benefits, or step out of it and do things for yourself.
