Oh poor Michael and Doc! Two sides of the same old and tired coin. The sheep can't seem to wake up out of the matrix. And Texas Cowboy; why would you expect "corporate America" to help? These are the same people (at the vertically integrated top of the pyramid) who are in bed with (our bought and paid for) Congress. Restore the Constitutional Republic. It guarantees the inalienable rights granted by the Creator which no fascist, socialist, communist, totalitarian system ever can or would. The nature of the beast makes it impossible. Freedom equals personal liberty and personal responsibility. You can't have one without the other.

It's shameful fortune 500 companies ignore the talent and experience of older workers. It is to their detriment and that of their corporations not to hire older workers who offer talent, consistency and dedication which one was the stalwarts of America which added to the overall success of those same corporations. No wonder former employees have filed age discrimination suits against AT&T. Other employees of corporate America should do the same. Of course if the GOP had their way, no American could sue for any cause, on any basis, if they had their way.

All this talk about older workers finding jobs, being regarded as valued employees etc. What we are talking about here for most older workers are McJobs. Sure, spend your life working up the corporate ladder, retire, find your pension isnt enough to pay for the bills and healthcare, look for a job, then work at WalMart or some grocery store. Great way to end your life, being treated like dirt/failure by some one half your age, who in turn will get the same treatment. No, forget about compasion, caring etc. These are traits of a socialist system, that we dont have. Why, because whenever we could have had the option, we chose to vote against paying for them. We chose a dog eat dog society because we were asked to do so when the middle classes thought they were doing well and wanted all their money to spend as they thought fit. Today, the middle class is reaping the whirl wind of expected poverty and poor healthcare.

I cannot work because if I do I might get stressed out and have a seizer and end up in the hands of a drug pusher MD (doctor mad dog) and then I will be at the mercy of some insurance company and I will not be able to pay on the bill and eat more than two days a month and by the end of the month The doctor will have me having six or more seizers a month when I do not have any now.
So I will not take the chance because I like staying healthy and seizures are very hard on me.
How many in America would go to work if we had doctors who cared about them and not see them as dollar signs?.
