... WHY ISN'T EVERYBODY DOING IT?
Most of you know I catch a lot of flak on my forums because SOME PEOPLE don't like the way I post.
One worn out argument that is used repeatedly is, "If this is so (simple, great, profitable, <insert your own adjective>), then why isn't everybody doing it?"
Simple answer is because SOYLENT GREEN is people!
We all know exercise is great, but how many actually exercise?
We all know smoking is bad, but how many do it anyway?
We all know which foods are bad for our health, but how many eat those foods?
We all know that we should save for our future and spend less than we earn but who does that?
The list is almost endless.
As long as there are people, there will always be some STUPID people and some smart people making STUPID decisions, where STUPID is defined as knowing better but acting otherwise.
Meanwhile, the RATS are still beating the Yale students.
