This speech is one of the best Ive ever heard. It really makes you think about whats important. Like how people who don't want the dirty jobs, try to succeed in Academia and then fail because there are not a lot of those specific kind of jobs out there. But people who do have dirty jobs are content with their lives because they are making a living and there sticking with it and their happy doing it. Theyre confident in what they do. Most people who get degrees arent, with some exceptions.
Its plain amazing. We really are waging a war on the working classes in the U.S. We just dont want to realize it. We all want white-collar great paying jobs, but we should all know that American Dream is too surreal to accomplish. We really have to work for our passions, and mold it into what we want. Dont let people mold it for us. This comes down to the laziness of America. *shrugs*
We want people to do is for us. Because we've already had many things accomplished for us and we basically have sacrificed a couple bucks in our pockets to aquire them, not our reputations. Thats for the inventor to risk.
America has this mind set where we have to have it done for us. Like a great job, people have connections, therefore the easy way out. No one really works for their passions anymore caz their brainwashed into thinking that why work for their passions when something else can be given to them and it can be just as good, only its not aquired by the heart, its aquired by the social status and power connections of America's industries.
