JSH: Their taunts are for a purpose
People don't taunt me because I'm wrong. They taunt because I'm right.
A con man is not a con because he has abilities that would give him the ability to succeed by not betraying people's trust.
They con because of weakness. If they were strong enough, smart enough, then they could play within the rules.
Cons do not look at the big picture.
These people can destroy big chunks of civilization not because that's what they want to do, but because they're not smart enough to realize that's what their actions can cause.
They just are not smart enough to know better.
The choice in front of you now is not really a choice, but a race.
If you lose this race then you lose civilization as you know it. Don't think about retirement or savings as those institutions as you understand them may be gone. Don't think about saving up for your kids educations or about maybe having your own business someday or maybe just having time for golf.
This race is the biggest one of your lives. If you lose you lose everything.
The taunters have set the stage. Now it's your turn to either win, or lose.
And there's not much I can do further to help you, except give you some incentive.
If you cannot win this race then not only do you lose, but so do those you love.
