About me
My name is Rob and I write for the Newzfix.
I started this blog during the 2008 presidential election. During this time I was fiercely a pro-republican supporter. Then the economy collapsed and my views started to change.
I saw what Americans have become. We have become mindless consumers. We have no control over ourselves. We’re sedated by hedonistic movie-starts, materialistic rhetoric, populist politics, and endless consumption. We lost our individuality in the pursuit of the almighty dollar and consumer goods.
I see that we are slaves to work at major corporations and to our masters on capital hill. Both Republicans and Democrats, Liberals, and Conservatives have destroyed the most important things in a person life. Family, Support, and Community.
Majority of my previous post are supportive for a free-market economy, but I realize that no matter which economic system we chose we, the working class and lower middle class will be slaves. Communism, Socialism, and Capitalism, it doesn’t matter which, we shall be slaves to a few. Whether it is to a few wealthy capitalist in Capitalism, maybe a few capitalist and the state in Socialism, or maybe controlled by the state in Communism.
I am a working class man. I earn $16,640 gross (8 dollars an hour). I actually earn much less then that if you factor in health insurance and taxes. My fiancee has to work full time so we can afford a roof over our heads. I live in constant fear of being laid off at a whim by the own of my business. I have no huge trust-fund or rich mom and dad to support me, nor do I want to rely on the government to support me. I tried my hand at a personal business and was defeated by the collapsing market conditions.
I write because I want to show the world what its truly like to be stuck in the working class with big dreams. I write how I feel and what pops into my head. I say ‘F*k Off’ to grammar and proper English. If you want to read something that has fancy use of language and a professional style or you are a well off upper-middle class person with your fancy sheepskin diploma, then read something on CNN or Fox News, however, you want to read about how a true hard-working and struggling (at times) working class drone, enjoy.
