But for all we know, you live in a box and put all your money into retirement. Everyone has their own idea of the sacrifices they want to make now versus later. The problem with saving for retirement is you never know if you are even going to live that long. Live meager now and die before you can enjoy it and you've lost.
There is more than enough wealth in the US economy for basic human rights for every woman man and child! You are just lacking in enough people who want to share it.

Seriously though, it is well established in Slashdot that companies have no obligation to bring their jobs to where people live, and if you don't make enough money you should move to where the jobs are. Are your parents supposed to move with you? Your parents parents?
On the airline I fly, you do it at check-in and even that costs $40. Otherwise you get a random seat. I guess the attendants want to take care of all the standalone kids.
Except maybe if there is lots of money involved, I don't really get why they need to be good at chess so badly. No one needs you to play chess, no one asked you to play chess, you decided to do that yourself. Being the best chess player does not mean you are making the world better in any way. You aren't even necessarily smarter in the classic sense, it just means you were born with a brain that is structured in a way that it can process chess boards well and that's about it.
So I'm standing and holding a sheet that I have signed and need to get to an insurance company. Is that they point that I am supposed to go and buy a PC, install an OS, install a media server, configure media server, and configure my printer to scan to it? Seems easier to FAX-enter number-send.
The printer/scanner I have doesn't have an easy way to get the scanner to the PC. There is software for it, but it is so bloated and clunky I would much rather just fax the document if I have the option.
This is why people rarely follow any kind of health science. Inconvenience yourself to follow some study today and it will likely be disproven in months.
Because when someone moves, family ties and roots are being broken. I know countless people who moved away and came to regret that they couldn't be around when a loved one got sick, passed away or needed support far away. Kids who don't grow up being with their grandparents. You can't give a hug over Skype. I myself moved and while I'm convinced it was for good reasons, I affected the life of many long time friends to do so. Just after I moved, a close relative got seriously ill and I simply couldn't be there for them.
Families are a support structure, but if you move away that structure is gone.

I don't think insurance plans pay out as much as you think they do. There are enormous costs when you are sick, but you get paid less.

That presumes there is an airline that has the service you want going where you want to go at the time you want to go there.
Corporations don't have to be moral. Too bad for everyone.

Ok so score a point for the fax machine.
How many giants are around to be affected by these viruses??
Well, I guess that's the case if you felt you couldn't watch video any other way in the house.

If the fax is working for them why should they change? Not everyone needs the new fancy-fancy. Also, changing induces more risk.
So if fax is so obsolete, why didn't you just send them in a digital way to those three companies instead and let the chips fall where they may?
Or even one that is the same twice if you have to recreate it.. which is kind of the point of a signature.
Most people don't have a digital tablet to make a digital signature with.
That sounds a lot more complicated than just signing a page and faxing it.
Holy shit that's why you have a phone line dedicated to fax.
Scan everything to soneone elses server? Hell no! Is this Slashdot where we care about security or some Facebook page?

I guess that depends how much you care abut your family and how much they care for you.
Only if happiness comes from money, which it usually doesn't.
God wouldn't have put gobs of money on the earth if they weren't meant to step all over everyone getting to it.
