you don't make money by being the nice guy and paying everyone lots of money to do a job that requires next to nothing for skill. It's business for a reason. He who risks reaps the rewards

one of the messages is that the 1% is controlling 99% of the money and government... i kinda agree with the message... just lack of cohesion and leadership is not giving it any creedance.

that's a bullshit message, and yes we've heard it. our government is voted in by majority, period. the people in this country are just so fucking stupid that they continue to vote for the same shitbags. if the government is doing something contrary to what the people want they should be voted out. this country gets exactly what it votes for.

the so called "rich" do not control 99% of the money or even the majority of it.

it's just another stupid bandwagon catch-phrase that these lazy pieces of shit latched on to

I think it's absolutely silly. When I graduated college, I did not make enough to cover all of my expenses. But I worked my ass off and now I have tripled my annual income. How did I do it? I work 12+ hour days, kissed a lot of ass, and networked. I didn't sit in the streets day in and day out, bitching about how life is not fair.

Seems to be a bunch of left wing losers looking for government handouts. Along with some union thugs in case they need to resort to violence to get their way.

I like how people on the right or quick to point out how things are "Un american"
But will defend these corporations taking American manufacturing jobs overseas to save a buck
Damn Hippocrates:tsk:

Anyways the point i was trying to make is "I'm not Against corporate America trying to squeeze an extra buck"
But what I am against is them taking kick backs from our government then either not creating new jobs,or taking them over seas.

That's True!
Most billionaires didn't get Rich being nice,nor fair.
And i agree with you on not getting paid 20.00Hr to tack on glove boxes at ford.:lmao:
But Joe Schmoe working 60hr weeks in a skilled position,for a big corporation with record profits.
Then said company only gives him a 25 cent raise
