With all the stresses of catabolic economic and environmental collapse coming down the pipe, people can't afford to wander through life like they're tip-toeing through the tulips.
No one can afford to be so ignorant, blindly trustful, naive, or flippant about anything any more, particularly about money, work, political and relationships.
Word to the wise people, pay attention to what you sign and have a firm grasp of what you're signing away when you put your name down.
