subytrek: the planned firesale and move was started way before the hurricane, so that's not a factor. It's a purely financial move. Bethelites in Brooklyn cost the WTBS twice as much as do their walkill and patterson counterparts. Factor in other higher costs from being in NYC and you can see why it's a smart long term strategy. Plus they can flip all those building for insane profits and make more dough. The labor for the new buildings is virtually free. It's a gigantic cost saving measure. I actually feel bad for the bethelites that like NYC. It's freakin boring in Wallkill and Patterson.

To be honest most of them DON'T check the board so they need to be told to do so.
So yes, some JW's are that fucking stupid.

You've straight up said that you gotta leave the country to get a job because blacks are taking your jobs.
In the US we see the same racist sentiments except it's directed toward hispanics. Your attitude tells me that racism is alive and well in South Africa and that affirmative action is a good thing.

Holy crap you live in South Africa? Yeah you have zero right to complain about affirmative action.

I'm pretty sure Affirmative Action isn't the problem here. I did get a kick out your racist statement. 'OH NO I'M A VICTIM OF REVERSE RACISM.'
You don't realize that by default you already have every advantage by being white. I HATE this phrase, but you need to check your privilege.

Why do Jw's have to pay for CO's expenses?
by nolongerconfused inthis is something that has always bothered me!.
why do rank and file have to pay for co's do's expenses, car, health insurance, meals, etc, etc...?.
didn't the apostle paul say that all christians have to be self sufficient and work?, not depending on anyone else and cause a burden?.

I dunno. I know CO's who opted not to submit expenses. It's usually not a lot anyway. It was always around $50 or so. I also know some CO's who submitted expenses for everything. There are certain things they can't claim as an expense though.
I also know CO's who had a ton of dough saved up from before they went into the work and I know some who were not well off by any means.
