Keeping the Poor, Poor

Why is it that someone is always responsible for keeping someone poor, but it's never the poor person keeping themselves poor?
 
Keeping the Poor, Poor

Just give them some bread and tell them to go away... Just kidding. Have no fear about our poor folks. Obama is going to take all the money away from the rich people and give it to the poor people is such a way as that we will all have an equal amount of money. Then, when the people that manage their money foolishly and have run out of money, we're going to do it all over again!!! Before Obama leaves office in 2012 to return to his heavenly home in Chicago, there will be no more poor people in America. There will also not be any rich people. We will all have just what the government wants us to have. Welcome to socialism.
 
I might add that I was born with "nothing" and I still have most of it! I've done pretty well for a kid that was born naked.
 
Democrats want a lot of poor people in this country--it's a huge voting block for them. They can get out there & promise them the moon & the stars--& of course tell them that the "rich" will pay for their new found wealth--& that gets them millions of votes.

"The problem with socialism is that government eventually runs out of other peoples money to spend"--Margaret Thatcher.
 
Now the rich have to keep people poor as well. You have to have the poor to keep costs low. But everytime I turn around, the companies I have worked for are raising prices. I have seen Walmart raise prices, McDonalds is raising prices but they keep their workers at the same wages. I worked during college (and still do while in grad school) at Captain D's. They have raised the price of one platter at least a dollar over the past year and a half but our wages has stayed the same and the bonuses we were promised have not arrived. Also we have our hours cut because the restaurant has to keep the cost down.

Solving poverty is not going to happen. But the guy did make a good point. If you don't give, the government will give for you (basically). Captain D's decided to fatten their wallet, so now they get taxed because they do not help out their fellow man.
 
Dorko.. You think maybe that platter going up by a whopping buck might have something to do with things like electric costs tripling in the last couple years, workmans comp insurance rates going up because people that get a papercut milk it for 6 weeks, your employers being forced to run their businesses the way someone else tells them to, etc?

ANY of this ever cross your mind? Are you doing MORE work, or are you doing what you always did?
 
Let me see JFK ran on a platform of tax cuts, strong defense, and personal reponsibility. The Dems would nominate anyone espousing such for dog catcher these days.

What keeps the poor poor is largely taxing the crap out of the rich...

EXACTLY.

So many who profess appreciation of JFK today know nothing of what he actually stood for....
 
Genes and booze keep the poor poor.

Thank God I have good genes.

I am batting 500, better than Ted Williams.

Oh Lord, are the liberal loons going to call the facts a conspiracy again???

I know you bad asses have trouble understanding what is and is not a FACT, so please tell me which FACT contained in this piece you are referring to keyboard commando....

Here's what it boils down to slick... "YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO WHAT I HAVE EARNED."

You're free to get off your tired, lazy ass and make something of yourself. Your also free to lay around and be a worthless piece of shit. However if you chose the later, don't come begging to me for a fucking hand out. As far as I'm concerned, YOU CAN DIE.

Now that you are done practicing your one liners and premanufactured talking points for your next townhall, please give me the FACT presented in this piece you were referring to bad ass...
