Health insurance can also be free (in the US) if you meet certain qualifications. So can food. Still not feeling the pity.

None of those things apply to me. You'll just have to take my word for that, based on the fact that I'm not getting welfare checks/food stamps/medicaid. Food you can get, yes, but that's the one thing I have access to anyway.

I think the point is that it really sucks to be a grad post-2010. By some counts, the unemployment rate for that group is above fifty percent. And it's even worse when I see what few employed friends I have get laid off because management wants a bigger bonus.

So yeah, when I see people dropping hundreds of dollars on video game money, it gives me a sad. Sad


Just convert your capital and net worth into PLEX purchases. Once you allow yourself to drop a few income levels, they might allow ya to get welfare support. Also they never ask you how space rich you on the applications.

Some people buy PLEXes ten at a time, others dissolve vitamins in $.25 cup-noodles bowls for dinner. Sure is a nice world we live in.

Shocked Are you doing that?

You don't get the necessary nutrients otherwise. Fruits and vegetables cost much more, though you're sometimes obligated to buy some since it's impossible to survive without plant matter.

A lot of you guys might think that all this stuff is baloney because you don't get to see it with your own eyes, but I live in a city where by last count about 1.3 million people go hungry.

The world is really ****** up right now. I'm by no means an activist, but I sure as hell know things aren't right.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

Tell them, they should buy maps. Or that most grocery stores and fast food restaurants are located at busy or popular junctions or roads. Or at the very least, they can pick up an Iphone with Siri, that will tell them where food is at, or how to cook it.
