“You Think Dancing is, like, SOOOOO Kewl?”

Lately, I’ve been finding a lot of blogs that follow me or reblog my posts that seem to think that either STRIPPING IS SO FUCKING COOL!~!~! or THE BLOGGER **CAN’T WAIT** TO BE A STRIPPER WHEN SHE TURNS 18~!!!! I’ve been finding a lot of the same stuff under the “stripper” tag.

[Edited out: paragraphs and paragraphs of exactly the sort of thing you’d expect stripping to involve - PostSatire]

This is why you offend me when you say that stripping is so KEWL. You have no idea what goes on there (you’re not even old enough to go, and this ain’t Pretty fuckin’ Woman), and you have yet to accept the harsher realities of the job. I’m asking you to consider your options and your future carefully before you decide that dancing is for you, and to not turn my job into a pretty, glittered little thing without knowing the whole story.

Have you considered the possibility that you’re in the wrong job? Or at the very least that there may be others who don’t have as much hatred for what they do as you clearly do?

I mean, if you think stripping is hard (and I’m sure it is), you should try [insert job of whoever is reading this]!

Tax rates for the rich explanation- rebloggable by request

Hm. If I ever made 1 million a year, I’d want to keep that money instead of being taxed more to help someone who didnt work as hard as I did. That is what’s complete bullshit.

There is no correlation between how hard you work and how much money you make. Like, none at all.

Conclusions:

1. Rich people are not rich because they work harder or are smarter than poor people.

2. Supply-side (trickle-down) economics doesn’t work. Self-evidently. If you think it works, you’re a fucking moron. Get out of your Economics 101 headspace and talk to some real people.

3. Giving rich people more money won’t create more jobs. More jobs are created by an increase in production, which is stimulated by an increase in demand, which is stimulated by an increase in disposable income among people who are most likely to spend it.

I would argue not only for cutting taxes on poor people, but giving them free money from federal funds. Assuming a national multiplier of 10 (as everyone does), giving poor people 50 dollars a week for nothing would, in six months, add $540,000,000,000** to the GDP.

I just fixed the economy. You’re welcome. Now have fun trying to get anyone to vote for it.

**$50 x4 (per month) x6 (six months) x10 (multiplier) x45 million (people living in poverty in the US in 2011)

In addition, the record shows that giving tax breaks to people at the very top of the money pile does not create more jobs. The idea that billionaires are just waiting for some more money before hiring new people is economically illiterate.
