As I recall, the person told me that you'd "never really worked." That, If I recall correctly, was his/her exact phrase. Is it wrong? Based upon what you yourself have revealed, I would say, "No." You've mentioned stretches of being on welfare, being unemployed, being a student, walking off of jobs, "working in lawncare" (whatever that means), investing in misguided paintball ventures, not working to look after your ill wife, and living off an inheritance. I don't know what my "informant" meant when s/he said you've "never really worked," but if this has been your actual history, then I don't think s/he was really all that far off the mark.
And heck, from a certain way of looking at things, there's really no shame in having "never really worked": it means that you've figured out how to circumvent the system, so kudos to you Droopy. But I guess you're right that this does somewhat undermine your whack-job political views.
I suppose you leave me no real choice here.
So be it.

Or, alternatively, where's my five bucks?
Please have your proctologist place my five bucks in the appropriate body cavity where it will be of the most efficacy.
Gee, Droopy. It's kind of transparent to resort to adolescent retorts when you cannot substantively discuss the Supreme Court opinion that you have neither read nor understood.
Few discoveries are more irritating than those which expose the pedigree of ideas. - Lord Acton

I think that means cash day work. But driving thirty minutes to stand in front of a Home Depot on the weekends can't be cost effective. Also let's not forget college dropout.

MASH quotes I peeked in the back [of the Bible] Frank, the Devil did it. I avoid church religiously. This isn't one of my sermons, I expect you to listen.

The world is most certainly ending. It's been a hard day listening to all the weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth today. Got to listen to angry TBMs talk about how the end is nigh, Obama isn't even born in America, America is is ruins because of him, etc, etc. People want to die soon because it is so horrible. The end times are too much to endure!!!
The most mindblowing thing I heard today was someone on Fox News saying that a sleeping giant had been awakened. (I believe the reporter was quoting that someone had used that famous quote)
REALLY?!?!?!

The fun part is that all the hate can be aimed at John Roberts. If he'd only had the sense to do what Rush Limbaugh, high school graduate, says.

Be sure to tell your lawyer about all the misogynist things you said to Moniker and Beastie, and be sure to tell them about your homophobic rants, so they can have a solid defense in place when these things get brought up.
"[I]f, while hoping that everybody else will be honest and so forth, I can personally prosper through unethical and immoral acts without being detected and without risk, why should I not?." --Daniel Peterson, 6/4/14
Defamation is a tort. It comes from common law. It is the result of hundreds of years of unaccountable men in black robes making decisions that accumulated as precedent. Precedent is a leftist scheme that is used to undermine the Constitution.
Then bottom-feeding lawyers who rely on the Socratic method to propose ideas that cannot withstand the free marketplace of ideas use courtroom tactics to trick juries and leftist judges into doing what they want.
I wonder how Droopy can ethically justify participating in such a system.
