The irony is..... I'm betting you are sitting at a desk at your work while you type in this thread.....
How is that ironic. I'm at work and I'm the Boss, but I'm self employed.
Now, if you are doing this while employed, you could get fired for this,
unless you work for the government
watching hours of porn on the internet instead of doing their jobs....
or maybe they just didn't have much to do at their jobs.
You know how the Gov loves all that dead weight.
Folks that get something for free from other people for doing absolutely
nothing should just accept it. I mean, what do they do, conjure up
imaginary jobs in their head while they aren't working....
Thanksgiving dinner? Oh good lord no. We would have to weigh the turkey and side dishes servings to make sure the servings all weighed the same so they won't cry they didn't get their fair share.
And make sure we weigh the desert. No, you can't have mine either.
I agree, except that I'd add that we are creating an entirely new class of self-imposed poverty. The children of the middle class are now relying solely on their parents until they are in their 30s. They prefer to sit in front of a PC or game console all day, as long as the refrigerator is stocked and the electric is paid.
40% of 13-22 year olds expect to inherit their money.
How do you justify your existence if you only survive from waiting for a check from taxpayers?

The irony is that you make an assumption, believing it's a viable arguement.
I'm typing from my computer at work, but then I own the business. It's called multi-tasking.

People born in 1990 are not Generation Z. We are the peak of the Echo Boom and most of our parents are Baby boomers.
Did I miss something? Nothing was said about Gen-Z. The link was directed at 13-22 years olds. I was clearly focussing on Gen-Y, the offspring of baby boomers.
Ok.... you completely missed my point, but thanks for showing how spreading the cost of things over the whole population can create marvelous things like modern infrastructure.
Why don't you enlighten us by explaining which roads it is that you don't use.

I think you should read up on what the definition of Irony is....
Anyway, if you own the business, thats fine. Whatever. You can do what you want.
