What's YOUR "Share"??
We can all get a little relief from the fact that the Baltimore Prosecutor has Charged Six Cops with "Murder" (in varying degrees). But, remember; NYC "ruled" that their most recent Death-by-Cop Incident was a "Homicide". Their Grand Jury, refused to punish them! So, let's not "count chickens" -- yet!
In the meantime, "assess" your own assets: your "time"; your "money"; the number and quality of your "relationships". Don't be surprised to find that you are losing ground, in just about all three of these important determinants of your life's quality; and, in your very LIFE!
If you look closely, you will find a number of ways you are "financing" your employer -- if, you're lucky enough to have a job. If you have to commute as a part of your job, who pays the costs of the commute? If you have to take "time" to attend your child's school activities, do you get "paid" by your employer? If your Boss calls a meeting on your "day-off", do you get "paid" to attend? Can you find other ways that your employer has "shifted" his or her Costs of Doing Business, onto YOU?
If you look carefully, and then add up the dollars, you might be surprised how much you are "Share-cropping" your employer's business. You will also find that your "share" of business growth that materializes is ZERO (or, damn close to it)!!
Businesses, before Reagan-Era Economics, were known to "squeeze" their suppliers. Then, "Suppliers" were stand-alone businesses, who could "pass on" those extra costs. Now the Employees are "squeezed" -- mostly in the paycheck, but also for the "time" they need to lead a healthy LIFE.
Employees "pass on" those costs in damaged relationships, and poorly-raised children. Again, IF you HAVE a JOB (and can keep it)!!
People like those in Baltimore, and Ferguson, and parts of NYC, DON"T have JOBS! They're being "squeezed" by those who DO! The costs to them and their loved ones is DEHUMANIZING! In case they are not "humiliated" enough, Privileged, White, and Other members of Society inflict Predatory and Murderous Policing on them; to prove we're BETTER than they are!
Stay Vigilant! The REAL COSTS are those encountered in the streets of our Cities.
