Why so many cops out there today? Add to the yt expenses and give tickets to our poor yungeleit and rebbeim?
ReplyDeleteIt's a full fledged money grab. Pulling people over for totally fabricated offenses. Scary what they can get with
DeleteShame on Lakewood commiteemen who are cracking down on drivers for minor infractions while gunmen terrorize residents in their homes at night robbing them.
ReplyDeleteThey should all resign in shame
Cars can kill btw
DeleteMy friend, we are way past the days of poor yungerleit…. Free daycare, free housing then charging the basement rent on top of that, free food, bmg checks, Yom tov grocery on top of Food stamps and wic, these guys are killing it…
ReplyDeleteWe are back to the days of sin'as hatorah.
DeleteUmfarginners invent the 'riches' the yungeleit are receiving on the backs of the poor hardworking baalebatim, and we may as well read the Ha'aretz.
Wanna trade income?
DeleteYup while the rest of us get killed with no help in sight because we’re not in kollel or rebbeim.
ReplyDeleteIf for some reason you don't think kollel guys should be supported, what's the argument about rabbeim? They are definitely needed in a community, and they are always paid less than the living wage
DeleteSO TAKE OUT A SEFER & LEARN!! What's your excuse?
DeleteYou anti Torah racist
ReplyDeleteI guess Rambam who says it’s assur to take money to learn was also?
DeleteFeel free to join a kollel or become a Rebbe.
ReplyDeleteThey won’t take a working guy
ReplyDeleteYou can't get a coveted Rebbe position even if you tried.
ReplyDeleteSo start your own kollel or Yeshiva.
DeleteCan't get members? Can't get funding? Maybe your not cut out for rabbanus
Cracking down while we are begging for them to patrol for safety is a chutzpah, but shows where our community's status is in their eyes.
ReplyDeleteWhy are they worried about kids looking at the eclipse? If they're in a classroom with the windows covered? Not really understanding the risks?
ReplyDeleteAnother excuse to close school.
ReplyDeleteThis is getting ridiculous we send children to school and trust them with the safety of children but they can't figure out how to have the kids wear glasses for 10 minutes
ReplyDeleteYom Kippur Kotton @ Kol Shimshon 1) 1:45 in Main Bais Medrash 2) 7:00 in Oytzer Haseforim
ReplyDeleteNobody’s saying rebbeim shouldn’t get supported or yungeleit shouldn’t get supported. I want them to have millions but we’ve all had enough of everyone crying poverty for them when many of them are better off than most in middle class with all the side jobs they could take and all the perks they get plus don’t be fooled they are paid a decent salary, rebbeim aren’t getting paid 30k anymore.
ReplyDeleteYou don't know who is better off than anyone, it is impossible to know.
DeleteBut you are sure that they are better off. Why?
That is why you are accused of sin'as hatorah. Your smudged glasses don't allow you to see anything but smudge.
In a time that we are all screaming about telhe Gigyus in Israel, and the cuts on the yeshivas.. Israel on the brink of an attack, we decide it's time to stop the kids from learning Torah. Ridiculous to say the least. Control the kids. If you think it's a danger, don't let the kids leave.
ReplyDeleteThis isnt the first eclipse to hit Lakewood. Kids never were dismissed early. Gets it's post COVID?
Oh. I see. Getting oaid40 ir 45 k is now being rich . I know Mezivta Rebeim who have to be there at 7 30 for davening , spend about 6 hours preparing for shiur, teach till 2 pm and have to be there for night seder also. Basically a 12 hour day. No time to do anything else . And salary is about 50k . Not really great salary for so many hours .
ReplyDeleteSee someone points out the basic truth that the rebbeim and yungeleit are not always the ones suffering the most and he gets attacked for “sinas hatorah”. It’s like the democrats who can’t debate the issues so they resort to identity politics and everyone on the other side is racist and many other special names.
ReplyDeleteWho said anything about suffering?
DeleteThey are given perks in appreciation for the wonderful work they do.
The world has a hierarchy, your demand to treat your job as a hard money lender, house painter, nursing home magnate, or taxi driver the same as a Rebbe is a product of leftist liberalist moral relativism.
It is not the truth.
Some people still appreciate that the Rebbe who teaches their children Torah has given them a priceless gift, even if he is paid a measly few million dollars per year for it. And certainly when he is not paid that much. They express that appreciation in various ways.
The guy who owns a takeout, while providing a service, is not as vital.
אי אפשר לו לעולם ללא בסם וללא ברסקי, אשרי מי שעבודתו בסם ואוי לו למי שעבודתו בורסקי.
The Rebbe is the בסם.
Even if you are right that they get paid 50k they get programs and help from all these other things only available to rebbeim and yungeleit which might surprise you but is actually worth a lot of money. Programs alone is tens of thousands of dollars value.
ReplyDeleteMy glasses are very clear. I have friends who are rebbeim and they admit that they’re better off. To the other guy who says it’s appreciation that’s definitely true that everyone appreciates their rebbeim and that’s why us rich balabatim tip them nicely whenever we can but the perks they get has nothing to do with that it’s because everyone thinks they have less than everyone else and I was pointing out the reality that these days many of them are better off than us rich balabatim. As for you accusing us of sinas hatorah if only you would have ahavas yisroel to those despicable balabatim like we live our rebbeim would be nice. Your attitude shows that from all your years in the bais medrash you haven’t learned nearly enough mussar.
