Why is it bad?

 

[LogikAndReazon]

Its all just sooooooooooooo unfair.......

"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need......." lol

 

[Sallow]

By itself? It isn't "bad". But when wealth..affords power..

Then it's real bad.

 

[Katzndogz]

Power should be concentrated in the hands of homeless drug addicts.

By itself? It isn't "bad". But when wealth..affords power..

Then it's real bad.

How do you separate the two?

P.S. I'd like to keep the thread along the lines of why is it bad? (not at at you Sallow but going forward)

It's bad because progressives loathe and covet those who have more than they do...

It's "no fair" to them...

Who said being rich is bad?

 

[beretta304]

I see sallow was the only one with any balls. Where are all the others?

Being rich isn't bad, buying political power, however, is about as bad as it gets.

 

[LogikAndReazon]

Being "rich" is only bad when they arent paying their "fair share".......or 90% of their income to progressives for bleeding heart social programs of their choosing.......

Nobody should have wants when others can provide for them...........lol

Okay, so I'll respond with a question.
Why are those set on convincing us all that being rich is bad rich themselves?
Seems they could do something about that if they really wanted to.

Because we're supposed to be more angry about what RICH people do with their money than what GOVERNMENT DOES with ours.

It is necessary to portray certain rich people as evil so they may serve as symbols to justify taking more money away from all the rich. It is necessary to "prove" some rich people did not "earn" their money to justify taking more money away from all rich people to give to other people who really did not earn it.


This guy over here has a Swiss bank account. Therefore, he is evil because he has one and you don't. Therefore, tax the rich "a little bit more". That is the thread you hear in Obama's speeches.

In between swigs of whiskey, watching NASCAR, and oiling guns murkins bleat something about camels and needles to make them feel better about their ignorance.

I have never heard any say they thought being "rich" were bad, but "how" you become rich may be in quesition. Selling drugs, stealing and cheating, false claims on services or products.Fraud. Getting rich at the expense of someone else's misery?
Lame ass question anyway.

What a crock of shit.....

If I were rich and donated 5 grand to Romney you would claim I'm trying to gain political power instead of supporting a candidate and that candidates views...

The truth is you progressives hate the rich because they have more than you do. You hate conservatives, republicans and libertarians because they oppose your socialist ideas. They work hard for what they have and you think you have a right to the fruits of their labor because they have more than you do....

It's really that fucking simple - now go ahead and deny that...

 

[AmyNation]

Very few people actually think being rich is bad.

 

[Mr.Nick]

Besides it's only wrong to be rich when you hold conservative views.... Soros, Pelosi, Obama etc - they're all fine to progressives..

Talk about buying power - look no further than Soros - that guy has his hand up every democrats ass and every policy making think tanks ass....
