Should someone be able to decide if you're useful?

breezey, i don't even know myself just how useful i am !!
to the planet, probably not much,if at all.
to the family,somewhat, they are VERY independent .
to politicians ,only that i vote, and i dare say they would prefer NOT to pay me a pension !!
to society,i guess I'm useful as a consumer and user of services.
all that, and i don't actually feel useless ! sarcastic

I have this theory we're all useful in different ways. Seems some people prefer to decided who is and isn't useful... somehow based on whether a person has a lot of money. How do you feel about that?! no money smiley

Oh hell... here we go... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Useful is a subjective word.
Opinions vary - with a few notable exceptions.
A lot of money CAN be very! useful ...
(especially to the government to whom the taxes are paid.)
Money - in and of itself - merely exists. It depends on how it is USED.

"Should" anyone have the right to decide whether or not someone else is useful?
I don't see why not and I can see no way to prevent them.
Each of us decides which opinions matter .
Generally speaking - "people" who pass judgement on others
based solely on the others net-worth are idiots and their opinions
are worthless.

My opinion has been, I am what i am,i know what i can and can't do. If someone doesn't like me ,it doesn't bother me. I help family members out when i can,and hardly ever ask for help with anything. I guess i am useful. Rolling Eyes

Each person has their own degrees of usefulness. thinking

Thought provoking subject. Thanks. thank you

GOOD! answer, there, Sneaky! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Opinions - are just that. It is what we think of ourselves
(assuming we're not a narcissist) that matters.
Most of us do the best we can - most of the time.
