You're finally making some sense. If you don't dig your job and pay, move on. There's plenty of folks willing to step into your shoes once you leave.

Oh, wait, you're happy cause all you want out of life is booze and comics. What are you bitching about then?

Amplifiers? And Chinese labor stopped being cheap a while back. It's the raw goods that are cheap.

These comments are rather Trumpian.

You are a ****ing Republican. You aren't even a neo-liberal. You post pics of stacks of money like a cliche rapper, you constantly post your economic history for kudos from nobody who actually cares for the sake of making your Irish curse look bigger, and you vote for supposed Democrats who support NAFTA probably because you're so used to exploiting Chinese labor that you've convinced yourself that you're not a parasite. I imagine the only reason you consider yourself a Democrat is because of your... you know... familial history that would have made social conservatism feel awkward. It certainly isn't because of your economic beliefs.

Hey, mister self righteous, take a walk around your house and check out where all of your gadgets and toys were made before giving me **** about exploiting China.

And per new forum rules, keep my kids and family out of your lame attempts at trying to dis on me.

My economic beliefs are really, really simple so I'm certain you'll be able to follow. You want money? Get a job. You want more money? Get a better job. Work your way up the economic ladder one rung at a time by bettering your skill sets and proving your worth at each stop along the way.

You keep saying that as if it justifies you also jumping off a bridge with all your friends.

My bad. I didn't mean to impugn your son-in-law's moosed-up skyscraper hair.

You. Are. A. Republican. And how did you prove your worth as a guitar guy who makes six figures? Surely you don't think what you do merits that much money. Who would? You don't provide any meaningful benefit to the world. You're honestly as beneficial as I am. So shouldn't you be making minimum wage? Oh yeah, you are now. Sorry.

Ask the owner of the company - he signs the checks. Why you keep talking about guitars, amps, and pedals? That's my hobby, not my career of the last 32 years.

LOL @ the minimum wage jab. I actually make less than California's MW.

$10.60 vs. $11.00

But seeing as I average working only about 4-5 hours a week it's not bad. I enjoy being semi-retired and the bills are getting paid.

So bucky, how many of your gadgets were made in the USA?
