the attack on saudi oil

0 doubt its being done on purpose. All the events like this is on purpose-The already filthy rich are getting much richer off these events--They are the lowest form of life on earth. The rich are the problem.

You people are goofy.

Without the rich, you would be starving to death.

And what you thing, that event, has to do with "rich people".... goofy. Just goofy. Do you watch infowars by any chance? Just curious.

Men don't need to be worth billions of dollars while many go without. live on the streets. God created one human family. We are all brothers and sisters. It seems to be govts and false religions that are causing division. Standing in opposition to Gods will, as are the rich.

If there were no 'filthy rich'.... there wouldn't be any food.

If you doubt that, Soviet Union comes to mind. But if you hate history, just look at Venezuela. They drove out the rich, and now people are starving.

Being rich, is not anti-god or something. In fact, the only that goes completely against G-d is envy and greed.... which is basically what you are promoting.

What business is it of yours, how much money someone else has? None, unless you are driven by envy or greed. When you sit around saying "that person shouldn't have billions, when that guy doesn't have hundreds"... that is an envious and greed based line of thinking.

Moreover, do you know which person in the bible exemplified your line of thinking?

a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, which she poured on his head as he was reclining at the table. When the disciples saw this, they were indignant. "Why this waste?" they asked. "This perfume could have been sold at a high price and the money given to the poor."
​

Do you remember who said that? It was Judas.

But one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray him, objected, "Why wasn't this perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year's wages." He did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it.​

Now notice... he didn't really care about the poor. That was just an excuse to cover his own greed and envy of the wealth.

This is why the Bible never suggests there is a problem with wealth. Never does it say anything bad about money. It says:

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.​

Notice... it's not having money that is the root of evil. It is "the love of" money. It is your own attitude towards money, that is the root of evil.

So how can we know what attitude you have towards it? Well if you sit around talking about how much money other people have... that indicates that you have a problem with the love of money.

Ah, that fine line betwixt capitalism and socialism rears it's ugly head yet again here Andy

It's not so much the system, it's the players ,and how they prostitute it , change the rules to benefit themselves, etc

Anyone who's lived Reagan's trick down should be able to opine....

~S~

Reagan never came up with trickle down. And in reality the rich paid more taxes under Reagan, than they did under Carter.

Regardless, everyone was better off under Reagan, and Clinton, which largely followed the economic policies of Reagan.

Inequality is normal, and in fact, I believe good.

The idea that people who do nothing, should have the same amount of wealth as those who work their asses off, is the most immoral of all positions to have.

Moreover, the idea that people who take no risk, should have the same amount wealth as those to take all the risk, is equally immoral.

Even if you work 40 hours a week, you own zero risk. The average owner of a McDonald's franchise has invested over a one million dollars of his own money to have that franchise.

That's the problem with all you anti-capitalist pro-socialist decrying inequality people. You scream about how the owners get so much money, and the workers don't. But what happens when that McDonald's store closes?

See you are all real quick to scream about equality, when the owners are making the big bucks. But magically silent when they are losing the big bucks.

If you really want true equality, then here is my proposal. Let's force all employees to put in equal stakes in the company. If the company does well, then they'll get equal money from the profits. But if the company folds, then all the workers own all the debt equally as well.

The McDonald's I worked at in high school, closed one year after I left. The owner lost everything. I didn't have to pay a dime.

But let's put your "equality" system. The average McDonald's costs $2.4 Million dollars, and has a crew of 40 people. The business goes bust. Ok, everyone owes about $60,000.

That's equal right? You want equality right? Of course your equality would bankrupt most employees, which is why you don't want equality.

Equality is just a word you use to cover for your greed and envy. You only want equality, when there is a reward. You don't want it when there is risk.

Henry Heinz went completely bankrupt when he tried to sell horseradish. No one was complaining about him being a robber baron then. It was only when he was successful selling ketchup, that people started complaining.

Equality is only a term used, when someone sees someone else with more than them.
i don't see many Americans going on vacation in Columbia, and complaining about equality because they themselves have more than 99% of the Colombians.

It's just greed and envy, and it is evil. You should stop it.

I'm a capitalist. like many, built my biz and farm from a hole in the ground

Capitalism is broken in America

~S~

Everyone in a capitalist society, is a capitalist.

Last year I made $30,000 for the first time in my life. Before that I made $25K, and for the decade prior, I never made more than $20K.

Nevertheless, I am a capitalist. I own my car free and clear. I own my condo free and clear. I have tens of thousands of dollars in stocks, in companies like Walmart, Google, Apple, and so on. And while that not seem like munch now, in 20 years it will grow to be a significant chunk of money.

So I am a capitalist. No question about it. I'm collecting dividends from my capital, as we speak.

Moreover, this class envy is ridiculous on so many levels.

In 2009, Warren Buffets net worth, fell from $60 billion to $30 Billion. What difference did that make in my life? Or your life? Or anyone's life?

None of course. So when you complain about wealthy.... what exactly is the point? If Bill Gates loses half of his wealth.... that does nothing for anyone. No one is going to wake up the next morning, and find their Ford turned into a Maserati, because Bill Gates lost $100 Billion dollars.

This is why I said this entire argument is not based on equality, but just on envy and greed. If someone else loses that money, no one benefits from it.

So it's just a bunch of people sitting around saying "if I can't have it then you shouldn't either". That's an envious and greed based ideology. Them not having it, won't make you happy... so you just want to make sure that if you are miserable, then everyone is.

Which by the way, is why every 'equality' based society, ends up equally impoverished.

My point is, we no longer exist on a level playing field
Capitalism is broken in America

While I agree we don't have a level playing field, I would completely deny the idea that we ever did.

When was that? When did the US ever have a level playing field? Ridiculous. There was never a time when everyone was equal. Never. Life has never been completely fair. When did that mythical time ever happen?

If your parents worked hard, and could afford expensive schooling, you had an advantage over those that did. That's been true since before the United States existed as a country. If you knew people who ended up in public office, you had an advantage in having your concerned heard, over those who don't know people in office. That's been true since the first colonies were founded in the new world. If you had a buddy who owned a business, you had an advantage both in getting a good job, and / or making profitable business contracts. That's been true, since people traded goats for carts.

When was this mythical time of a 'level playing field'? It never existed.

And as far as Capitalism being broken, and the US being a 'classist' society.... I can prove that wrong in seconds.

Almost half of Fortune 500 companies were founded by American immigrants or their children

Capitalism is broken? We have a class based society where the rich keep the poor down?

Then how are immigrants, and the children of immigrants, founding nearly half of all fortune 500 companies?

If capitalism is broken, how are they being successful? If we have a class-based system, how are immigrants creating such a large portion of the largest and most successful companies in the country?

The immigrant who became a drone firm boss

How does a Mexican immigrant that didn't even have his work permit yet, able to start a multi-million dollar company?

Why did his 'class' not prevent him from succeeding? Why didn't our 'broken capitalism' stop him from profiting in the millions?

It's a ridiculous view, that isn't supported by the evidence in this world.

How can a drunk bar tender, start whittling duck callers, and end up a multi-millionaire with his own TV show called Duck Dynasty, if we have a broken capitalist class-based system? I guess drunk bar tenders are the upper crust of the elite now?

No... there is no class system. And Capitalism works perfectly fine. How can you look at AOC in office, and conclude we have a class system? How did someone from the "bar tender" with zero class at all, who thinks we're all going to die in 12 years, end up in one of the highest offices in the entire country?

No. You are mistaken on this sir.

That's the problem with all you anti-capitalist pro-socialist decrying inequality people. You scream about how the owners get so much money, and the workers don't. But what happens when that McDonald's store closes?

See you are all real quick to scream about equality, when the owners are making the big bucks. But magically silent when they are losing the big bucks.

If you really want true equality, then here is my proposal. Let's force all employees to put in equal stakes in the company. If the company does well, then they'll get equal money from the profits. But if the company folds, then all the workers own all the debt equally as well.

The McDonald's I worked at in high school, closed one year after I left. The owner lost everything. I didn't have to pay a dime.

But let's put your "equality" system. The average McDonald's costs $2.4 Million dollars, and has a crew of 40 people. The business goes bust. Ok, everyone owes about $60,000.

That's equal right? You want equality right? Of course your equality would bankrupt most employees, which is why you don't want equality.

Equality is just a word you use to cover for your greed and envy. You only want equality, when there is a reward. You don't want it when there is risk.

Henry Heinz went completely bankrupt when he tried to sell horseradish. No one was complaining about him being a robber baron then. It was only when he was successful selling ketchup, that people started complaining.

Equality is only a term used, when someone sees someone else with more than them.
i don't see many Americans going on vacation in Columbia, and complaining about equality because they themselves have more than 99% of the Colombians"]It's just greed and envy, and it is evil. You should stop it.

"The idea that people who do nothing, should have the same amount of wealth as those who work their asses off, is the most immoral of all positions to have"

Nobody has that position.
That right there is the fundamental misunderstanding and dishonest representation of the Progressive agenda.

But that is the position.

When you post those graphs showing some people have more, and some people have less, and then claim that inequality is bad.....

Do you know how much work, the people who have more, have done to earn it?

No. You do not know.

Do you know how much work, those people who have less, have done to earn it?

No. You do not know.

So on what basis are you saying that the inequality is wrong?

You have to be assuming that those who have more should not have it, regardless of what they did to earn it, and those who have less, should have more regardless of what they did to earn it.

That is the progressive agenda.

People who work wisely, and work hard, and save or invest their money wisely, will end up wealthy. That hard work and effort, should naturally result in those with much more, relative to those who do not do those things.

The CEO of VMWare, was making $8 Million dollars a year. Did you know that Pat Gelsinger was regularly putting in 80-hours a week?
Mark Zuckerberg was up by 5:30 AM every morning, and regularly stayed until 6 PM.
Carol Smith, of Harper’s Bazaar, comes in on Sunday for 4 hours, to catch up on work without any distractions.
Tim Cook of Apple, is answering emails by 4:30 AM.

Daily Routines of Fortune 500 Leaders (and What You Can Learn from Them)

So when you look at the people with the wealth, they are typically working exceptionally hard. That is why they are have all the money.

And when you look at the poorest people in this country, who want to clock in for 8 hours only, and clock out, and invest none of their own capital, own none of the risk of a business failure.... it's no wonder they have very little wealth.

Even with those people though, the biggest problem is that they simply handle money badly.

A janitor secretly amassed an $8 million fortune and left most of it to his library and hospital

How can a janitor working a standard shift, end up a multimillionaire? He used money wisely, and invested it.

If there were no 'filthy rich'.... there wouldn't be any food.

If you doubt that, Soviet Union comes to mind. But if you hate history, just look at Venezuela. They drove out the rich, and now people are starving.

No, they drove out the rich, the rest of the world has been punishing them economically for a decade.

The fear of the rich... people will realize they are parasites.

What?

How exactly has anyone anywhere been "punishing" them economically for decades?

That doesn't even make sense. Venezuela was the economic leader of the Latin American. They were a net exporter of food, and had nearly unlimited natural resources.

How were they "punished"?

Please tell me, that you are not just making up an excuse, to cover up the fact that Venezuela's socialist policies wiped out their economy, and now magically they were retroactively being punished for decades.

Because that's what it sounds like you are saying.

Sanctions that began the minute Chavez got elected.

An attempted coup sponsored by the US in 2002, that failed when the people angrily rose up against the military and put Chavez back into power.

I'm sorry that you are too stupid to realize how we've been punishing the place for picking an economic system we don't like.

0 doubt its being done on purpose. All the events like this is on purpose-The already filthy rich are getting much richer off these events--They are the lowest form of life on earth. The rich are the problem.

I believe that the Saudis has staged this attack on their oil wells, to prevent everyone from finding out that their wells are going dry. They probably had blown up the wells that has went dry. They wants to keep up that image that they are overly abundant with oil. To make everyone bow down to them.

She said it well..


So MAGA Morons What LOSER Miltary guy is going to fight for them? Being Dead or Wounded only stupid go here. Did the Moron in the Military not learn from both Aghan and Iraq loss?
Good luck Losers. Saudia Arabia needs to be invaded. Or let Saudia Arabia and Iran fight it out themselves.
If Saudia Arabia has no oil going to market or the Iranians. They both wars on each other and have civil wars to end themselves.
The vast people in their nation want to be free from these police states rule.

Tulsi in this act of desperation blew what little credibility she had..

She actually wants to reward Iran by undoing the sanctions on the planets #1 state terror sponsor, Iran.

Funny how the only way to move up on the Democrat party is to hate America more than the tards beside you.

The Saudis should have been eliminated on September 12, 2001.

All?

That's silly.

I betcha that the refineries or whatever was empty. It probably was a outdated facilities. They just wanted to collect on the insurance. Saying that it was filled with millions of gallons.
But their wells are going dry. And they still needs lots of money to create a big bomb to make world peace.
