Ego is when you think you have accomplished something because you have some quality others don't have. That somehow your better then the next guy. What I have, is pride. I am proud to have gotten where I am, because I worked hard for it with no inherent advantages. |
We all have ego at certain areas, the parts where we don't have it, we make it up with hard work, and then everything goes into pride, which is an awsome feeling if you ask me, as long as we don't show that pride and turn it into confidence lol.

maybe its just you being overly judgemental, its not just that you wont see them ALL the time, so cant judge like that, but you can also add to that, that many of the things you say they do, OUR CAPITALIST SOCIETY tells them to do... |
Its not that you’re young, its that you lack experience ...
Like many people, I started out my post-secondary education at what would be considered a community college if I was in the United States and after two years I transferred to the University. I worked the entire time I was in school and went to school full time. The only reason Universities have spots for people to transfer in after a year or two is because of how many students, who are smart enough and have the capacity to pay for it, fail out of school; and the main reason these students fail is that they’re not mature enough and focus on the elements of school life beyond academics.
The older you get the more you will see people who have the ability and means to take advantage of a great opportunity that fail to take advantage of it because they’re too focused on other elements of life. In many ways there is a certain amount of fairness in the trade that is made because many successful people wish they spent more time when they were young "Chasing girls" or "Having fun" while may unsuccessful people wished they buckled down more; suggesting that the person who got the reward of having fun when they're young should share in the rewards of those that were disciplined seems remarkably unfair.
I wont do these things you say I will, you know why?
im not an arrogant, judgmental ass.

been working for about 2 months there 3 days a week, weekend job at the same shop for about a year before that. |
Not sure this shop applies, but humor me...
Now let's say you want to better yourself at that store, so you work harder, or take the less desirable shifts so the boss notices you. In a few years, you make assistant manager. The job pays for shit and is a ton of responsibility, but you take it because you know it's the only way to be manager some day. You work every night, and close up. Then the manager moves on, and because you were the best assistant manager, you get the manager job. Now your doing the book, hiring people, firing people, making shift schedules, making sure the supplies are always on time.
You work incredibly hard because you want that regional manager job. After 10 years of busting your hump more then the next guy, you are now regional manager, making 120k a year.
But you only get to keep some of that. 4 months out of your life, you get to work so you can give all your efforts to someone who doesn't work. All those people who you worked harder then, get to not pay taxes, Instead, you pay it for them, and the guy who has been working the same job at the counter for the last 10 years, gets part of his monthly spending money off government assistance that you have to pay for.
I think the reason you feel the way you do, is because while you have friends on assistance, you don't pay for it. As you get older, you will realize that to get ahead, takes work. Once you have done that work, you will feel different about people taking it from you to give to those people who just chose to go home and watch TV, and not not close every night.

I would be paying my fair share to help society as a whole to be better, so I would have no issue paying taxes, heck on 120k a year? I would happily pay 70k a year in tax, 50k would be a fantastic amount of money to earn in a year after tax even, its twice what my mam earns.

Judge is the wrong word to use, the smart thing is usually to intake information and advice then filter it whenever you can. If everything somebody says is judging, then everybody should just shut the fuck up and you should stop posting in these forums. =P The fact is that lazy about life is the worst possible laziness, and it's everywhere, people are capable, but if they can't make that right decision or take in that good advice, then they are bound to suffer and they deserve it.

uh, retirement is only going to get more and more harsh the newer the generation atm, I hope you are thinking really far ahead instead of looking at your own ideals, there are a lot of factors you need to consider these days espeically for somebody your age right now, and you need to leave your mom out of this, use the world as a base, not your mother, would be a pretty good start. again, just friendly advices, hope I'm not once again judging the hell out of your family rofl.

Remember, judgment is something you do to someone when it doesn't effect you.
When money is being taken out of your check for someone else, its not judgment. Its stewardship of the income you earn. Someone else (the government) takes a part of your money. If you feel that they are using it unwisely, you can discuss, debate, and argue what to do with it. Remember, its your money.
Its no different if you gave your wife some money after she took it from you, and she spent it very poorly...Wouldn't you want to discuss it with her? Or is it 'not your place to judge', despite her demanding it?
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
