I don't use my LinkedIn to look for a job, as I haven't been part of the traditional workforce since 2008. I was blacklisted very early in my life for things that, at the time, were not the collective norm.
I use LinkedIn as a portfolio and documentation tool, and as a way to create credibility for my SEO. I'm over 40 now, and I made the best of my circumstances. Although I'm technically very poor financially, I found ways to work around the system and live a somewhat comfortable lifestyle. But this is not ideal, nor how it should be. I really had to compromise a part of my soul just for some peace, probably for half a century before I pass.
I don't want this for the younger generation. They deserve better. They deserve to be protected and to have the ability to raise families safely and affordably, while preserving their own cultural identities.
At my age, it's not about me anymore. It's about leaving a mark and creating a better society for future generations—for people like my son, so he can experience a normal life, have a wife, and create a family of his own.

Open Letter to The Ticket To Work Program
Many years ago, I participated as a survey taker for The Social Security Incentive Program. The program existed to give beneficiaries an accurate understanding of their benefits. I was really struggling with my parents and friend’s at the time who were calling me a bum for collecting a check. They’d say things like “why don’t you just get a job?” Thing …
