I defined my fair share w/in the context of my family and economic circumstances at any given time. With that as a guide, I donated, volunteered, shared, gave back and, in general, acknowledged and supported those around me. I continued this approach into retirement.
Now, however, I look around me and see waste, arrogance, mismanagement, and just plain lack of caring; so, I "dropped out." Since the various levels of government, and attendant agencies, don't appear to give a rat's @$$, I'm adopting their lead--I don't either. My new motto is screw 'em all, save six for pallbearers.
Yeah, I know, my values and expectations were formed decades ago, so I'm woefully out of touch w/ vast segments of the American population that have been forced into a subsistence level lifestyle by my having taken their job for thirty-five years. Hell, I don't even have any tattoos or an iPod (Nor am I interested in funding same for indigents)!
