Cain: 'If You Don't Have A Job And You're Not Rich, Blame Yourself'

And, the problem with what he said is what, exactly?

Over simplification with no intellectual depth

How's that?

Very good question--I would like to know the answer to that one too?

Wow ... so hes only like 99 percent of all politicians then. All politicians oversimplify and leave out facts that don't benefit their way of thinking. In a way it's not their fault, it's the system they've created. And most people don't bother checking anything themselves neither will the media call them out on it.

i'm sure that's true. you, for example, latched right onto this *interpretation*.
unfortunately, i labor under the handicap of having a whole brain.

don't forget your helmet, liar.

Oh I get it: You are incapable of inference. Don't forget your other half-brain in your ass, douche bag.

i'm more than capable of inference, slick.

you're the one being spoon fed by huffpo and lying about it.



you're cute when you're mad.

Apparently you are not capable of inference, since you couldn't figure out what Cain was getting at. Don't beat yourself up over it. I mean, my 15 yr old nephew could figure it out, but that's okay. One day, you'll be a big boy who can think for himself.

Ever heard of the old axiom that the simplest answer is usually the correct one?
Occam's Razor? Anyone? Beuller? Frye? Anyone...?

Let me translate that: "I'm a Liberal, and I can stand the truth!"

When you're Barack Obama, facts are a real bitch!

Herman Cain, the new darling of the right, seems to think that the big banks and Wall St are beyond reproach when it comes to the poor economy and lack of jobs in the US. He also has a wild conspiracy theory that the Occupy Wall St protests are being staged by the left to draw attention away from Obama. On top of calling gays 'godless' in 2004, this latest gust of wind from the pizzaman-turned-presidential-candidate ought to solidify his standing among the far-right. Unfortunately, most Americans don't share his opinion that the big banks are good guys (not that he'll get the nomination).

Herman Cain On Occupy Wall Street: 'If You Don't Have A Job And You're Not Rich, Blame Yourself' (VIDEO)

Asked by the Journal's Alan Murray about his thoughts on the demonstrations, which initially began in New York City and have since spread around the country, Cain responded:

"I don't have facts to back this up, but I happen to believe that these demonstrations are planned and orchestrated to distract from the failed policies of the Obama administration. Don't blame Wall Street, don't blame the big banks, if you don't have a job and you're not rich, blame yourself! ... It is not a person's fault if they succeeded, it is a person's fault if they failed."

Cain went on to admit that the banks had something to do with the economic crisis of 2008, but pointed out that it was now 2011, seemingly downplaying any lasting effects of the practices of big banks and Wall Street.

Then why are people like Cain blaming Obama because people are out of work?

If it's no one's fault but your own that you don't have a job, it cannot then be Obama's fault.

It's Obama's fault that it's their own fault, don't you know.

Seems like you can't get enough of me. Did you sleep on the couch again? Looking for some man-love? Don't beat around the bush, just ask.

You could go to China. That's where Republicans sent your jobs.

...the big banks and Wall St are beyond reproach when it comes to the poor economy and lack of jobs in the US

Question for you: Do you blame only corporations for the state of the economy or do you also blame the politicians that wrote regulations which prevented any legal action against the leaders of those companies? Do you blame politicians for the CRA, which forced banks to make loans that should not have been made? Do you blame politicians for backing any bad loans the banks made through the creation of Fannie and Freddie? Do you blame politicians for bailing out those banks and other companies with taxpayer money? Do you blame politicians for accepting contributions from companies in exchange for favorable, competition-squelching regulations?

Does government hold any blame at all or is all on the evil companies?

When politicians are to blame.....the people can vote them out. we have no such ability when it comes to the corporate elite.

Government holds blame.....mainly because too many politicians were unable to summon the courage to do what is right, accept that they'd lose campaign donors, and try to get re-elected on merit rather than ad spin.

The blame is for allowing the corporations to act at will......which is not what is in the best interests of the nation as a whole.

I know but that doesn't stop you from saying "oooobama" every other post.

Dont like something about the truth?

There is no one keeping you from working except yourself. If you can't find a job, create one. Move where you have to move to get one. Take the jobs that are available. Stop being so arrogant and thinking there is any job that is beneath you. There isn't.

This nation needs to relearn how to work, to truly work. Not just at a job, but in life.

Why didnt anyone else think of that? Take the no money you earn from the no job you have and use that un-money to move to where the jobs are.

Brilliant!

you know that saying...
Where there is a will there is a way.
well maybe you don't..or EXPECT others to come and give you a LIFE.
