May we All have a METAMORPHOSIS. REASON. GOoD JUDGEMENT and LOVE and ORDER!!!!!

Why the fascination with the '1 percent'? Just being in the top 1% doesn't mean squat. Now then, if you wanna talk about the top 0.002%, then you are getting up into the REAL Power Elite (Soros, Buffet, the Koch Brothers, Gates, Etc.) \

because so much of the 1% follows the lead of the .001% because they cannot afford not to.

Hello everyone :) How are you all? Well I hope?

I'm a little curious as to how American tax payers feel about the more than $7 billion paid out yearly in welfare assistance and food stamps to Walmart and Mcdonalds' employees?

Is it because it helps the 1% stay the 1%?

Great way to subsidize successful businesses.

So the Left Wing is helping out the Right Wing.

Still trying to figure out if this is Socialism or Fascism?

That's just foolish. It's the right wing milking the flaws in the system.
Because none of them actually put their wealth where their ideology is if they can avoid it.
the left wing is not so much helping them as taking the best of available bad choices.

It's only fair that those who PAY for this country have a say in how THEIR money is spent. It's only FAIR that the leaches of society should be thankful for the generosity of those who feed them.

It's only FAIR that the wealthy not illegally and unethically turn their money into political power and offshore 90% of the opportunities and MANUFACTURED 'leaches'.
And simply from greed and a belief the 'losers' deserve no better.
you don't offshore major business to make profit, you offshore to make MORE profit.

What you folks from canada and australia don't see is that we *do* take care of our folks on the bottom rungs of the ladder. The folks on the bottom rungs of our ladder live better than most of the world.

What you folks from canada and australia don't see is that the bottom rungs of our ladder include everybody from the very first rung all the way up to more than half way up the ladder now. And there are folks at the very top of the ladder who are taking advantage of very special treatment also from the tax payer.

What you folks from canada and australia don't see is that we now have a class of people who have grown accustomed to living on welfare. They are not only accustomed to living on welfare, it has become a way of life for them and they have now grown to *expect* it to always be there. They see no reason to every try to get off it. They see no reason to ever try anything, other than vote (as many times as they can each election) to make sure they always get their welfare check. And they have a majority of politicians in our executive branch doing everything they can to increase their welfare checks, a judicial branch that is teetering on making sure they always have their welfare checks, and half our legislative branch who are currently making sure they get their welfare checks.

What you folks *not only from canada and australia* but what all you liberals will never recognized is that there seems to be no limit to the amount of generosity you have with **other people's** money.

I say let's go ahead and kill the goose and get *all* the gold out of it right now.

The issue is the current efforts to NOT take care of them.\
You do seem to lack any awareness at all on this subject.

I would say that he is VERY aware of the subject, and you are being disingenuous about that first sentence. Just because someone does not wish Government to do something does not mean they do not wish it done. It just means that they believe organizations other-than-Government can (and WILL) do a better job of it.

His statement on **other people's** money is dead on the mark. When the tax man cometh, and forces you to pay up under threat of force of arms, what might have been an act of generosity and charity had the Government not been involved turns into armed robbery and becomes morally and ethically wrong.

There would be a whole lot less people looking for help if there were some jobs around here.
They own it? they can do as they please with it?
Nope. If you're asking me if i'll allow laws changed thru corruption and the power of compound interest to make me a wage slave the answer is no.
How big a fool does one have to be to allow the Owners to alter the system to their liking with unethical and undoubted illegally conducted political manuverings?
Now we're down to the nitty gritty, aren't we?
Other peoples money? That'd be MY money if you hadn't stolen my future.

First, *I* didn't steal your future. Who did? The Government and organized labor.

And it is not just *your* future. Its EVERYONE in the USA's future that got stolen.

And it never ceases to amaze me how liberals in the USA will go running to the SAME CORRUPT GOVERNMENT that screwed them in the first place and beg 'Aunt Samantha' to take care of their 'ouchies'. Jeez... Government is the villain in this case, it isn't your mommy.

Why do you think the Corrupt Government did it in the first place? To keep people dependent on them. Why? For the votes to keep the villains in power. And yes, it is BOTH of the major political parties in the USA that have done this to you. To us ALL.

What can be done to fix things? Not much at this point. The dependent now form a majority, so the ballot box is out. And I doubt that enough people would risk what little they have left for a more shall we say active remedy.

We are screwed, and those of us that DO see it are kinda like the dance bands on the Titanic that kept on playing music as the ship sank. We are ALL screwed. We just, at this point, WISH things had gone differently. But then, as the old saying goes, Wish in one hand, and **** in the other, and see which one fills up first.

Dude..that was the Royal 'you' ok? Not a personal 'you'. I got lazy.

And I say it was the Owner class that bought the govt and did the deed.
No doubt about it. there's not enough people in washington who aren't owned body and soul to save us.
BUT what else have we got? If you think that why aren't you shooting yet?

Organized labor? how many crooked stewards does it take to equal a Bernie Madoff. There's corruption everywhere but did the unions steal several trillion dollars in 2008?
The relative size of the threat is... not adequate. 'i can shoot him because he kicked me in the shin' don't fly.

Well, this time the SCOTUS decided that corporations are people and money is free speech. And since the liberals haven't been able to completely nulify the constitution yet, we are now going to have the people who actually produce something (whether it's here in the states or somewhere over seas--where *LABOR IS CHEAPER*) have more say in who our elected representatives are. So, just like the long list of liberal destructive measures forced on our society in recent years, this is just an area that will slow down the demise of our society by just a little bit.

Labor is cheaper? Is that what I just wrote? Does that trigger any thought in your mind as to why jobs are being shipped over seas? More profit? Is that it? Are you sure? Nothing about a forced decision to ship jobs over seas or go out of business? No? Ok then. No point in trying to explain. Besides, it would be getting off topic.

Want to keep all jobs inside the U.S.? Ok, how about isolating ourselves economically from the rest of the world? This would force Americans to produce what they want. Jobs jobs jobs. Right? The answer to most of our economic/social/political problems, right? Then instead of paying $10 for a computer keyboard made in China, we could pay $100 for a computer keyboard made here in the U.S. (that may or may not work) and keep Americans employed. Is that what you want?

nitty gritty, eh?

Still don't get what I'm trying to say? No? Ok then. No point in trying to explain. Besides, it would be getting off topic.

Feudalism was rejected a few hundred years ago and for good reason.
I reject your efforts to bring it back.
Especially with completely made up and outrageously incorrect numbers as an 'example'.
I reject the thought that just because you can buy corruption and change laws you can enslave me.

Ok, sorry. A typo. I meant to say 'OWNED'.

The Democrat party has since (starting with Clinton) thrown most of Labor under the bus, and labor has been rather slow in figuring it out. They started cooperating with the republicans in shipping jobs out of the country. I know that nobody really likes the little Ferengi from Texas, but Ross Perot was right about the 'giant sucking sound' from NAFTA. (NAFTA accelerated the process.) Clinton (a Democrat) signed it.

Why did the Democrats start cooperating with the Republicans in shipping jobs out of the country? Simple. It is easier to keep the people dependent on Government 'social programs' (and therefore voting Democrat so that they can keep them) if they HAVE NO GOOD JOBS.

Hi Majorkong :) I just thought it might be a good place to start before I moved upwards through America's most revered. I see you've done that for me. :) As to any perceived fascination with America's top 1% on my part... rest assured... fascination is definitely not the word I have in mind :)
