Truth, I have seen the same thing. My Uncle D had a construction co. since I can remember. My first job was taking the bus after school to the house he was working on and picking up scraps for the dumpster. He made good money when others were just getting by. In the mid 70s things were getting hard. Gas embargo, no work, if we did not have our unemployment time in for winter we were SOL.

Uncle D always had a new truck and car for service, Travel Trailers, took trips cross country to far away assemblies ect. He would build a home and sell it an then build another bigger and more elaborate. As a kid in the early 70s, I thought his one home a chalet that had a in wall stereo system that had speakers in all rooms as the shit. Pool table in the basement ect.

But he never saved a dime. He spent all he made and then some always being in debt on his home and cars never really owning a thing. The bank owned it all. Then when he could not run his business and got diabetes and had his leg amputated and had to shut his business down it was time to pay the piper. He lost his home, his cars, everything. He literally had no place to go.

A school buddy non JW who he had got along with all his life and was a real estate agent owned his own business, and invested in gas wells and other rentals and had a lot of money, set up a trailer, mobile home on a lot and gave it to him. His sister would come down and sit with him on meeting nights because he could not go to meeting and had to sit home alone with a fire in the stove to keep the place warm in the winter and she was afraid if the place caught on fire he could not get out by himself.

I worked for him most of my early years and he had one last property as things were going to shit, a mobile home on a lot he rented out. I bought it to rent and when I cam to his house the one he lost to give him the paper work to sign, he was going over the Daniel book that came out in the 90s like it had the answer to all his problems. You could tell he was looking for a time line, when would this end come, he needed help a fix and it was promised all these years. I was sickened to see what the cult has done to people like him.

He passed away 19 years ago, and it still bothers me today to think of how he was brain washed into making horrible choices.

When I worked in Wyoming in the early 80s, when the oil boom was on out there and the rest of the country was in recession. I worked pouring concrete with a family member who was a JW also. My wife and I started a bank account and my wife asked to hire on the road crew turning signs in front of the trailer park we were staying at while I worked Masonry work. The couple we stayed with would rib us all the time about our savings account. They would go to Rock Springs every week end and spend money like it was water. Telling me wife and I that we would be throwing our money in the streets soon so why not enjoy it.

That couple built a small home and I mean 20x35 with a basement home and had several kids. They now live in that home in the basement and one of their kids lives in the up stairs with their husband and kids. Its very sad. But they did it to themself with the help of the cult.

The people who vote Democrap are either stupid idiots who can not tie their own shoe laces or they are anarchists who want the destruction of America so they can run while or rebuild it in some Communist way. Either way they need to be destroyed before they destroy the greatest country ever on earth. We are falling behind on education and manufacturing all because of the stupidity of the dumocraps who want to destroy. The blacks who are voting because of promises of free shit are dumb ass idiots also. Your free shit never really comes and its your own hood and culture that is the issue in the poor black areas. Until someone calls them on this and its not my fault for being white that your neighborhood sucks. Its yours things will never change.

The Animal Sentience Bill - what next?

by LoveUniHateExams in

so, in the uk there was recently a bill which was nodded through parliament - the animal sentience bill - which was backed by vegan activists.. dogs, cats.

cows, even lobsters now have been recognised to have feelings.. first of all, let me say that if you want to go vegan that's fine with me.

we're all allowed our individual dietary choices.. but for how much longer?

mickbobcat

Animals do have feelings. But one has to have reasonable lines. Its abhorrent to torture animals. Dog fights, cock fights even Greyhound racing is a brutal sport. But lets take the reducto ad absurdom point of view. Do you have to feel for a red ant hill that you are dumping poison on? Or that Mosquito you swat on your arm? Its up to you but its insane to feel the same way about a mosquito as you would say a puppy. It would turn any normal persons stomach to see some sicko hang a cat by the tail and throw stones at it. Or to toss gas on a dog and light it on fire. One would have to be a very sick and IMO someone who should be just shot if they thought this was cool or entertaining. But the world is full of sick people. I am in favor of standards in the meat industry to make the process as humane and pain free as possible. Personally I have not eaten red meat for 18 years. Its not that I don't love a good steak but red meat is one of the worst things you can eat.

I had many of my family who died with heart blockages due to eating high fat, I.E. Butter, dairy, eggs, red meat. My wife worked at a Dr. office. And she had seen several people who were in need of heart bypass surgery. several of them went on a no fat diet. Really limiting any fat intake. No trans or saturated fats. They said some will always get through but you limit it as much as possible. Most of them after a year of doing this did not need surgery any longer.

I am 60 now and I had my arterys checked by my GP and he said they are very clean and should be good till the end. My wife and I eat a little Chicken White meat only and fish and then its limited. We use it to flavor food dishes not as some do with a heaping plate of meat for dinner.

I used to hunt deer, Bear and Pronghorn even wild boar. But it does not bring me pleasure to kill things. I get much more joy out of watching the deer in my yard. This is not to say I will not dispatch the odd animal that is causing issue. If I have a coon that is attacking my feral cat I take care of, I have a 22 suppressor and in my sub I will end that thing right there. No pleasure taken but I had to pay 180 for surgery for my cat for an abscess he got in a coon fight.

I also have a rule that if it does not have hips it dies if I can kill it. So all snakes will be dispatched in my yard. Copperhead and gardener snake they all die. Sorry but that is the way it is. I also have black widow spiders, and the occasional fiddle back. I spray for them and ants but as stated above, I do not put insects on the level of puppys or cats, or other animals.

Dr. Fauchi that lying idiot, was involved with cutting Beagle puppy's vocal cords to stop them from crying in the insane torture he approved. What a total douch nozzle. https://www.republicworld.com/world-news/us-news/fauci-accused-of-funding-experiments-involving-beagles-being-eaten-alive.html

My in-laws are two such people. People who pioneered and did not work and try to save, instead they made just enough to get by and waited for the end to come. Now my MIL is in Palliative care and the state is paying for her keep, My FIL lives in a dilapidated home and can not keep it up. I know of many who did not save, and instead of working extra jobs to put some money away for retirement.

One elder I knew never saved and now at 74 he has to work two days a week or so at building maintenance to make ends meet. Another elder who was a drywall hanger did not save a dime. Some of the brothers who had a building business would give him charity work painting small jobs they had. I ended up buying his home because he was going to lose it to the bank. I lived in it for a couple of years and sold it. He and his wife applied for a FMHA loan and got it. You will never pay it off but it will be low payments based on income.

The cult is pushing this again. Quit jobs work building the cult projects and give your dog away. So in this tread post your known stories of JWs who are now living a crap life in their old age because of the cult

How can you have a deficit for a Circuit Assembly on Zoom??

by pistolpete in

remember when after a circuit assembly the assembly overseer would come out right before the end of the assembly and make a special announcement;.

"brothers, we have a financial deficit of $5,000 dollars for our circuit assembly.

keep in mind that we have utilities and other expenses that need to be met.

mickbobcat

If people willingly give their money after all the BS the cult has put out, telling them to quit jobs not to get an education for a better job then wants money they get the life they deserve. My father in law is living that life now. He has only SS and not a dime of his own saved. His wife is in the hospital on palliative care and the state is paying for it because he has nothing and his and her home will be taken by the state when they are both gone for partial repayment. Its a shit home also. The basement is a swimming pool and foundation is not in good shape. I don't really feel that bad for them. I tried for years to tell them to save for the future but I was told they would never die, and I did not know what I was talking about.

Records

by Jerryh in

i was never a witness but i think they keep extensive records.

could they produce these names today?.

mostly curious.. .

mickbobcat

So what the cult should do is put up a wall with stars on it to the tune of 144k stars like the CIA does on fallen agents. LMAO. We can not celebrate birthdays but we need a wall of anointed. The cult is sick and I hope dying.

Alec Baldwin Shot a Woman Dead

by Simon in

so alec baldwin shot a woman dead on set and seriously injured another man.. what do we put this down as?

a tragic accident?

maybe ... except that implies no one was to blame.. the more you find out, the more it seems that this was due to negligence and lack of attention to safety.

mickbobcat

Look its real simple. Hollyweird and the leftist idiots tell us gun owners all the time that we need safety classes and licenses to own a gun and keep it in a safe ect. Why the fuck does Hollyweird or California not have a rule or law that on set there is to be no live ammo on the set period and if they have to have it for any reason, there needs to be two firearms prop-masters that only do firearms and are licensed by the gov and a special permit is issued. I get real guns are used with blanks to make it realistic. But heck I have been around guns for 50 years plus and some air soft guns make me take a few looks to now that they are not real. So why not make quality high end copies of real guns for the movies for non firing and others that fire special blanks that will not take real bullets. A whole new industry and jobs would pop up. Or expand existing business. Hollyweird needs to put their money where their mouth is.

Actually I would like to get a stamp that says Jehovahs Witnesses protect pedophiles. Put it on 1 dollar bills and give them to the contribution box. Or have a pimo person put it in.
