You're a parasite.

That's not being a parasite, it's being an investor. Could you imagine what this country would be like if we had no investments? Do you know how many companies that would have been put out of business? Do you realize how many millions of jobs would have not been created?

Using the dictionary definition of parasite, the workers are actually the parasites because we survive off the money people invest in our companies, be it the one you work for or the one you manufacture products or offer services to. If not for investors, many people would have no way to make a living.
 

So the top 1% make a quarter of all income. Do you have a point behind that? Should they make less, and if so, how would that help you?
Ray, Todd...have you ever cared about what your neighbors earn?
I live a few houses down from an extremely wealthy celebrity doctor, I've never once thought about nor cared about what he must earn..... georgephillip why do you have such a bizarre obsession with others earnings? Wouldn't it be less stressful for you to just pave your own way and not think about others?

Never have.

If they made more or less this year, it wouldn't impact me one bit.

I look up to successful people--not down. If a very successful person is taxed at 100%, how would that help me? I wouldn't see a cent of it.

Years ago when I was teaching at a music store, one of my students walked into the studio down in the dumps. After some discussion, he told me he was considering giving up the guitar, even though he was doing pretty well. Apparently he went to a bar somewhere, and seen a guitarist who was much better than he was.

I responded by telling him the facts of life: There will always be somebody with more money, a bigger dick, and can play better guitar than you, so just get used to it. If you are here to be the best in the world, you are in the wrong field. You don't have to be better than him--or me for that matter. The only guitarist you have be be better than is the guitarist that was here last week at this exact time. Don't worry about anybody else.

After some thinking, he snapped out of it and continued being a student of mine for the next year or so. But I try to pray what I preach. I don't worry about how successful somebody else is. I'm more concerned about how I can be more successful. Bill Gates will never bum me out. I'll never be Bill Gates. But if I can be financially better this year than last, that's how you get ahead in life.
 
O is responsible for Joe’s winning the D nomination. He has and will control Joe going forward. Expect lots of neocon heinous bull shit under Joe.
I don't think Joe has ever forgiven Barry for backing Hillary.

‘The President Was Not Encouraging’: What Obama Really Thought About Biden

"Biden’s own academic career was unimpressive—he repeated the third grade, earned all Cs and Ds in his first three semesters at the University of Delaware except for As in P.E., a B in 'Great English Writers' and an F in ROTC, and graduated 76th in his Syracuse Law School class of 85 students.

"He’s the first Democratic nominee since Walter Mondale in 1984 not to have an Ivy League degree.

"He was not a binder person, Clinton and Obama aides said."

At least he got a "F' in ROTC:D
Yet O did all he could to get Joe the nomination. Why? IMO to deny Bernie the nomination. Proof O is not a progressive, but a fraud. He is all about enriching the rich and the MIC. He’s a ******* neocon.
No he wanted to win the damn election. Joe wants the same thing as Bernie but in steps...
You’re deluding yourself. Joe’s long track record should be your clue.
The real world does not recognize your propaganda version. It would be great if he could actually make Republicans compromise but they are scum nowadays. Only propaganda makes this mess possible

More quote-unquote common sense that allows you to ignore the fact that inequality and upward mobility have never been worse and the rich have never been richer- it's ridiculous. And the whole trickle down and job creators baloney has been proven wrong so many times it's ridiculous.

If you want to stop the rich from getting richer, then the solution is to quit giving them your money. Every week you gleefully send your money to the top; likely several times a week. SO STOP DOING IT!

Give up your internet, quit driving your car and buying gasoline. Get rid of your cable, satellite and cell phone service. Grow your own food instead of buying it from those multi-millionaires. Quit going to McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's. In fact don't buy food from any franchise restaurant at all. Quit buying clothing and shoes from those evil rich people. Make your own; the Amish and Quakers do it their entire lives. Get rid of that gas furnace and get a log burning fireplace to keep you warm. Buy a windmill and cancel your electric service from those multi-million dollar electric companies.

Charity starts at home.
 
And believe he is a perver t

Pervert?

Just because he likes to touch little kids?

Preposterous!
He's very proud grandfather and old-time politician. Nobody's complaining except for brainwashed functional morons lol

Proud grandfather who likes to rub little kids. Nice.
You have to be pretty brainwashed to believe that crap.

Who am I going to believe, you, or my lying eyes?

No you tax them their fair share like every other modern country does, brainwashed functional moron. And it doesn't make any difference two jobs jobs jobs we need demand we need workers who make money. We have to train our workers and take care of them for a change.

Total b*******call GOP scandals conspiracies and misinformation.
 
Fool...you’re clearly blind to what’s going on. It’s not 1787 dummy.

What does the year have to do with it? We don't penalize industry for their decisions. All we can do is make being and manufacturing here as attractive as possible like lower taxes and less regulation.
Dream on.
