ORIGINAL: kingkuang So don't tell me how to solve problems when you have never put your career and future on the line to do whats right. Dude, I have put my career on the line, my future and even my life to do what is right. I have succeeded and failed on various occasions. I have also sold a house at a loss to move to a more hospitable area, sold a business and broke even. You dont fight the battles you can win, you fight the battles that need fought. There are people on these boards that have gone through hell and came out like roadkill on twenty miles of bad road, they dusted themselves off and started over. Never once did they blame the place they lived, or make excuses as to why they could not do this or that. It is not the state, the government of the state or the country that is totally responsible for anything, since barring violation of parole or probation there is nothing really keeping us tied to a location. Part of me hates my home town with a passion, but I grew up here, this is home, and when the years of accumulated wear and tear on this body finally caught up to me, I gave up a sloop I was restoring and came home. I could not physically do the work I chose as a career, and there really is no consultant work in that field. In the ten years since my return I have worked as much as I can on a piece of property in a remote part of the county to build a home, bought another piece of property close to town so it is convenient to shopping with my sister so she has a place to live, and got involved in rescuing pit bulls and wolf hybrid dogs.
