What I Found First
Overall, I found a large room full of productive human beings. It was uplifting. Most of these people were between thirty and seventy years old, more men than women, and they were all productive people, the kind who get up early every day, make sure that complex systems are producing properly, fix anything that is broken or near breaking, plan for the future, cooperate with large numbers of other people, and then go home at the end of the day and love their families.
If all the world lived like these people, we'd be halfway to a paradise by now. And that thought made me sad.
These people – by any standard of decency – should be left alone to create their better world. But instead, they are forcibly tied to wasteful, parasitic, and destructive systems. Half or more of their earnings are taken from them every year. Their actions are restricted by their moral inferiors. They live less than half the rewarding lives they should be enjoying, and for no defensible reason.
The Other Things
Beyond my overall happy/sad impressions, I found quite a few particular things:
These people would have preferred to discuss the practicalities of their businesses – tools, materials, technical obstacles and solutions, and so on. But instead, they were forced to discuss government compliance. Almost every subject discussed from the front of the room dealt with government regulations. Most of the subjects discussed on the sides involved tools, equipment, business strategies and so on.
Dealing with employees is a major issue, especially involving the immigration police. These people are justifiably concerned with fines and indictments, even from hiring employees who are clearly long-time Americans. (That is, not Hispanics or other recent immigrants.) A few of the comments I heard:
"Good luck trying to explain that to an ICE agent."
"Do NOT waive the 72 hour waiting period."
"Do NOT allow them to enter your facility or inspect anything without authorization from counsel."
Nearly all of these people agreed that government in America is out of control, abusive, and oppositional to their happiness. I think that's a positive opinion, since it reflects reality, meaning that they have stopped looking at the world through myth-colored glasses. The sad part of that is…
These (good) people don't know what to do about it. The system they grew up believing was their friend has turned against them. They've gathered the considerable courage required to face that, but they don't know what to do next. They are working within the system as they can, trying to avoid its hazards, but don't see any clear alternative – and no path of escape. They'd like to do other things, but they also need to feed their kids, and don't know what to do about it all.
