Citizen of the World Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) The reality is that no matter how different we may be wealth/poor, left/right, etc.in the end we are ruled by hatchet, axe, and saw. Death does not discriminate. Edited July 3, 2016 by Citizen of the World Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) Neil is a very aware guy - and I don't believe much passes him by, esp when it comes to issues in his own country .. The Quebec Sovereignty Movement and Parti Québécois was a hot topic back in the 70s .. The greatest maple producing area of the world is Quebec, and I cannot help but think that these social/political issues played a part in Neil's inspiration for The Trees .. . .

Well if you consider that trees can't live without light then as far as The Trees is concerned it's only the use of force that is the issue. Now given that you can sit in your front porch with your constitution given arms to protect yourself against an aggressive over-reaching government and you aren't doing you must actually be happy with this situation.

The unfortunate thing is that in 2016, most people have failed and are looking for scapegoats. Well luckily I personally did not, but when I got downsized at the height of the recession in '09 I needed a major break to get a decent long term job, and it took years. The nonsense and favoritism that went on with the downsizing process,could fill a thread, I wont bore y'all with that. Seeing employers passing time and time again on folks (me and colleagues) old enough to see Permanent Waves tour in person yet offer jobs to thinly qualified twentysomethings was enough to sour my view of "free" markets. Yet Im extremely grateful for the break I finally got. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRogers Posted July 4, 2016 Author Share Posted July 4, 2016 Could it be the thinly qualified twenty somethings cost less to employ? Did forty somethings after the recession take that in to account??? Perhaps to the point of doing some downsizing in life and offering themselves for less? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These days, once you get 5-7 years experience, the youngies can get almost 90% of the salary. Considering that they tend to jump around much quicker causing higher training costs, not much of a savings. And they know how to play the game now unlike 20+ years ago, with tricks such as putting pics of their gf/wives with bikinis on their desks something that just wasn't done back in the day. I always thought as much as it was the slightly cheaper labor, it was also the middle aged bosses wanting to be cool with the young crowd. As far as adjusting budgets, I know that although came out the other end fortunate with minimal damage. And some youngies that couldnt get employed, those that graduated 08 n 09 many of those got blacklisted by employers. I think thats why Bernie did so well w that demographic.

Slack jaw gaze Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Maples are actually quite content in the shadows of Oaks. Given enough decades Maples (and Beeches) will come to dominate most deciduous forests because of the ability to bide their time until they get some sun. So the song kind of has it backwards as far as the species go, but it makes for a better song as is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymaker Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 All I know is that maple syrup is much tastier then "oak syrup." Seriously, why don't more trees produce tasty sweet syrup? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
