Default Rant: Morals, Values, and Honesty

Please Login to Remove!

Sorry as I am sure this will get closed quick BUT I can't resist....

What ever happened to morals, values, and honesty in this country???

I read thread after thread where users are wanting to steal data, scam their way out of EFT's, and find a work around for for everything else under the sun!

Why buy a BlackBerry if you can't afford a data plan?? People spend more time and effort trying to find a work around than if they just paid for the data plan.... Man hour costs based on the time spent trying to find a work around / cheat based on what a data plan costs has got to be through the roof!

Next, if you sign a deal (If for a BB or a contract to provide a service and / or goods) then you honour that contract.... If that means you are out money then you should have known what it was you signed...

Lastly, If you buy a BB and later find that you need a data plan for MMS, or that you need a data plan to text for free, or that you need a data plan for email, or that you need a data plan for internet, or that you need whatever then my advise is do a little research before you make the purchase

Wow, I feel much better!!!!!

Love always

Kris

Built on dishonesty? Wow, I'd like to hear your arguments on that one. But I'm sure that would get this thread closed in a heartbeat.

Yea, well you did preach. And you are entitled to your opinion, since that is all you gave, no facts. You can't (and won't) back it up.

That might be the country YOU have, not me. And of course, you choose to be here.

I'm speechless. You need to get out more. In particular, you need to travel abroad.

Im tired of people standing on there soap boxes calling people out on there so call moral stances because they think differently. We as in the USA are not perfect be any stretch. Stop throwing stones if you live in a glass house!! I Love this country because it is all i know. I didnt choose to be here i was born here. But to pass moral judgement on someone because they dont think or act the way you say is a moral standard is wrong.
People like you make me absolutely sick to my stomach.
You may have been born here, but that sure as hell doesn't mean you need to stay. Feel free to leave any time.
You won't be missed.

But to the simple issue of someone trying to squeek out of their contract simply because they didn't do their homework or they just don't want to pay the ETF charge.....

That's wrong any way you paint it. Doesn't matter that someone else did something else wrong and got away with it.

While there are dishonest people out there, that doesn't make it right, and I certainly won't teach my kids that what the dishonest people did or do is ok for them to do.

I'm sorry, I can't help you. You are too far gone. Good luck with your stay here in the United States of America. You will need it.

Blanket statements such as yours not only make you look like a friggin idiot... they also piss on every accomplishment that good, honest, hardworking, upstanding, loyal, proud and true Americans have achieved.

You are a disgrace to your own country, and it makes me really sad that people like yourself have the same civil rights as the real Americans.

I was looking for words just like this, just couldn't believe they even needed to be stated. It's hard to believe that someone is that far off track and so cynical. I feel sorry for him.

I have to agree with Penguin above. We all make mistakes but I would hope that we, at least try to be honest in our dealings with others.

You are a bitter soul. I feel sorry for you.

We all know there is no way around it just be a little more tolerant.
No, that was not your point. Your point was, "Hey, everyone else is dishonest, so what's wrong with being dishonest?"
