Some people here attack Stefan as some kind of narcissist that was not achieved the same popularity level as Paul, and must therefore attack, belittle ect. This is not true. The basic premise behind Stefans disaprovement of Paul is the fact that if Paul were to become president and the system just collapses under him (which this system will collapse

Skills. Skills matter. Fiding a job is actually easy if you have the skills in demand. A lot of people take the easy route and major in garbage like Sociology and Psychology and wonder why they have no job. I dropped out of college after 1 year. I had little to no skills and could not find a job. That was until I decied to train myself and was given

So I need some thoughtful feedback on this topic that is especially on my mind right now. So I work for a small I.T consultant business in NYC. This firm as I viewed it's list takes only Govt contracts. As I chatted with one of the more senior employees when I first started ( like 5 weeks ago) he stated that the president of this firm was "burned"

@Grant.W.Underwood Perhaps its a taste of quantity I believe.
