NOT everyone can own his own business, go into farming, work in the trades, be an independent investor or find a job with a company that supports decency, justice or wholesome values.
Many are forced to make a living in the heart of the beast where corporate America and big government form a powerful juggernaut pitted against family and nation.
How does one survive it?
Circumstances vary, but here are a few general guidelines to consider:
1. Avoid political and religious discussions at work.
2. Be considerate and courteous always.
3. Expect to convert no one and, for the most part, do not try.
4. Weigh carefully when to seek another job.
5. When forced to go along, exercise as much detachment as possible.
6. Seize all opportunities to undermine — ethically and legally — your employer’s political projects. (For example, if possible, hire those similar to you.)
7. Away from work, do all in your power to support contrary views. Study and learn.
8. Do not give mind or soul away. They are yours.
9. Keep inviolate the truth in your heart.
