Well, they need to get the people to jail somehow in US. Isn’t the jail system like a half of their economy? I mean joy riding sounds as an as good charge as any. 16 years seems just about right.

People need to realize in a nation of over 300 million people stuff like this is rare. The only reason it seems normal is because unlawful arrests always go viral and make the cover of the news, especially if the person is black.
Prison is a very profitable business for a few rich men in this country. Hence why a war on drugs exist and why we have the largest prison population. The prisoners make shit for companies while they’re serving their time, and get paid something like 10 cents an hour.
No, but many others have.
Of course they require experience, but i could name dozens of careers off the top of my head that require a collage education.
Really? High school doesn’t end here until you’re 18/19. Is high school 4 years for you over there? Here we have 13 years of school before collage.
I can’t really comment on the rest of this, because i have no experience in the matter. But I’m willing to bet what you’re saying mainly applies to the U.K.
Right now it’s quite hard at least where i live for people my age to get a job, because you have 50 year olds, and illegals working at jobs ideal for people my age. And if you’re like me, you’re far too busy with school and other things. I’m busy driving all the time, I’m pretty much the family Taxi.
Well at least in my personal experience the people ive seen drop generally haven’t done crap so they’re too far behind to graduate.
But yes there are other factors. My grandmother dropped out at 17 due to family issues and still managed to have a nice paying job and a career.
To add another view: from what I’ve heard, most Czechs that work/live in UK still keep paying their Czech insurance and fly back to the home country in case they need any serious medical treatment.
Depends what your having done . But any major operation I would have it done privately .otherwise you could be waiting for 6 months if it’s. Not life threatening .
But as I say the actual treatment is no difference . It’s just the before and after care you see the difference .
Well maybe also the fact that British hospitals are known for high rates of infectious diseases that patients might catch in the hospitals also work as deterrent.
thats because we have people coming from all over the world for the free care bringing all sorts into our hospitals . but generally they are a non issue . the hospital shut the ward and dont let anyone leave or enter and its sorted pretty quickly .
the media will always make things sound worse than reality . as i say personally ive never had any issues with the NHS other than waiting times and i dont know anyone who has had issues other than that .
we can all find issues using google . im sure i could find plenty of horror stories for any nations health service if i looked hard enough
no job truely requires a college education to get into . any job can be taught and a company can put you through college (such as law ) . its down to the employer if they employ you or not .
example . i was an officer . ive never been to university .
as listed on the army website the requirement to become an officer .
, you’ll need 35 ALIS points (34 for SNQs) from 7 GCSE/SNQ subjects, with a minimum grade C/2 in English Language, Maths and either a science or a foreign language; plus 180 UCAS Tariff points from a maximum of 3 subjects (4 for Scottish Highers and excluding General Studies) with a minimum of 2 at National Level 3 (excluding AS Levels) or National or International equivalent.
so to translate that . you need to have passed high school and sixthform (two extra years of high school ) and university .
however you can do as i did . join as a regular soldier and after 4 years apply to become a commissioned officer . if your commanding officer thinks you have what it takes he will sort you onto the course . and you need none of them qualifications .
this is the same with most jobs . and if university is required for say engineering . your company will put you through the course and pay for it all and you a wage because you will go to uni part time and work the rest of the time .
which is what my younger brother does .
he works for 3 months then goes to university for one week then work another 3 months and then another week at uni and so on for however many years .

[/quote] here we only have 11 years . which at the end you get GCSE’s . at which point you can leave school and go to college (different to your college ) where you can learn a trade . (painter , plumber , hair dresser ,chef etc ) or you can stay at school for another 2 years and do A levels which you need to then go into university .

Being a doctor, a teacher, stuff like that. The law in my state requires those professions to have collage educations.
Sources,
My mother is a teacher, and my brother is trying to get into med school.
Over the summer, and last summer i applied at 5 different places in my area, places that would work for me.
I was a bit surprised i didn’t get any of them, seeing how I’m a straight A-B student something the applications said would help my chances. In addition to that i have a rare ability most people my age don’t have, the ability to pass a drug test.
I saw the people they hired too, most were Mexican and spoke about two words of English. They even hired a downs guy so maybe I’m just shit 
Well i wake up at 6, drive my Mother to work, then drive my sister to school. Then go back, spend about an hour getting my brother up, then i get ready myself, i get into school at around 12:30-1:00. Then i leave around 2:30, then go pick up my sister from school, drive her to Gymnastics, then go pick up my mom from work, its usually 4:30 at that time.
I then go pick my sister up from Gymnastics, go home, and by that time my Mother takes the car for her second job teaching. I suppose if i really wanted to walk 10-15 miles on a busy road at night to get work, and then back i could but that doesn’t sound like the best idea to me. And since winter is almost here that would be extremely dangerous to do.
Right now, i’m focusing on finishing school. I have no clue what I’m going to do after though.
indeed . but you dont need a college education to be sponsored to be put on a med school course .
what i mean by this . is you may enter the medical industry at a lower level straight from high school . doing some crappy behind the scenes job . then a few years later apply to become a trainee doctor and be in a much stronger position than someone straight from college thats done a pointless maths course or something because you have experience in the industry .
specific jobs as i say are different in this respect . which is why i mentioned my brother before .

[/quote] what is your dream job ?
I applied at all the places that were hiring. You have to realize i don’t live in a big city. Everything is spread out where i live, and with the schedule my family has i need a place within a ten minute drive of my house.
Well i just filled out the applications online. As for life achievements, well I’m not even out of high school yet. I really couldn’t name many, i can shoot, ive hunted animals, i know more about politics, and history than most my age.
But those don’t really help you get a job like working at the grocery store do they ?
How could i afford a car if i don’t have a job?
I really have no clue to be honest. A lot of things interest me.
just because somewhere doesnt have a "hiring " sign doesnt mean you dont apply . apply to fucking everywhere . send in application letter asking if they have anything available with your resume . and send them fucking everywhere . you wont here back off them all but you only need one .

[/quote] thats where you go wrong .
i do the hiring for my gf’s company .the people i get in for the interview are not the ones with the best grades . its the people i find interesting . the people with something a bit different . like have you played for a football team ? any volunteer work ? any sort of activity you have done . put it down . because it says alot about you .
no one wants to hire the kid that lives in a library 7 days a week , because he is a boring cunt people want to hire somone with a bit of get up and go . someone who is fun to work with and yet still work hard .

So, today during the lunchbreak, I went to get program to the Opera house, and since there is a gun shop on the way…
I have a kubotan on me all the time, unless I have a pistol. I was for quite some time thinking about changing that for some knife, and since they have not only firearms, I spent a few moments with the seller introducing me to the options of defensive knife carry.
What really caught my eye was a folding kukri knife. I had no idea this existed.
http://www.qinggear.com/product_pic/F01231.jpg
Anyways, it seems that knives are either too large to carry without any issues or too small to have enough respect so just pulling them would solve a defensive situation without having to use it. Now I think I need to get to all-time-gun carry instead of getting a knife.

Right, but like i said
No to all of those I’m afraid. Ive always gone to school far away so most of my time was spent in the car, i haven’t played sports since i was in middle school.
Well that doesn’t sound like me I’m very quiet around strangers, and i’m very brief when talking with people.
Well, that won’t happen. My mother is not able to lend me that kind of money. My father easily could, but he won’t.
Well right no not really. And that actually has me stressed, i have no fucking clue what i want to do and it pisses me off.
join some clubs on the weekend . hunting , shooting clubs . just something so when they look at your resume they get a bit of personality .

Fuck, 14 hours at work and I can’t get a fucking taxi.
Clubs usually require money though. And the applications i filled out didn’t really ask me questions like this.
Well i wouldn’t really call my self shy, i more just don’t like talking to random people yes i know that sounds completely like shyness but it’s not out of fear but out of me just not wanting to.
Plus it’s hard to talk to people without politics coming up, and my views are liable to get profanities thrown my way
Well i wish you luck,
