3% is a paltry sum considering that this company "continues to make money" ..................... they can afford to pay more, it would be a different situation if they could not .......................... we get what we are "willing to accept" nothing more, nothing less .................

It is often associated with extreme pessimism and a radical skepticism that condemns existence. A true nihilist would believe in nothing, have no loyalties, and no purpose other than, perhaps, an impulse to destroy." (emphasis added)
So, if you are really a Nihilist, why would anyone ever listen to anything you have to say?
Just curious.
