Sorry, I'm a conservative ( as are most sucessful black men, registered republican, voted for Gary Johnson). As are my parents (maybe my mom not so much). My mom owned a medical company, my stepdad was an electrical engineer. They probably payed more in taxes than you ever have. They also probably put more kids through college than you ever will (four of us, at least three kids who were friends of the family). I went to school, got a degree, work in R&D, bought a house, got married. Point to me where we are spolied.

It is spoiled that my parent paid cash to put me (my bothers and sister, and some friends) through college because the could afford to? Their parents and other family members did the same for their generation, like the generation before them. If God blesses enough and I work hard enough, I will do the same for the generation after me.

Its spoiled that my parents took us on trips they could afford?

If that is spoiled, you should have seen the spoiled kids I went to school with.

I've had a job since I was twelve. If you were able, you had to have a means of income in our house hold, well at least up until my sister (the youngest), but she is a girl, had better grades, and was in more scholastic activities than the rest of us. I didn't get an allowance, I didn't have a lot of clothes (three pair of pants, and about nine shirts to wear to school), I drove hand me down cars to school, and always had to help fix things around the house and rental properties (I am thankful for that, no need to call someone to do maintinence on my own properties).

If that is spoiled, well then I guess I was.

See, here is the problem. This family worked hard for all that they have and here we have some bitter, negative and jealous person who obviously believes in the idea of 'spreading the wealth' and it's unfair, boohoo. What happened to working hard for what you have...you know the American Dream? Although it is fading away fast, why are people NOW degrading those who benefited from it?

This is proof of the change in mindset over the last 30 years.

Obama said that we would not fall off the fiscal cliff. He said it would not happen. All he has done is told Republicans to figure it out and asked Al Sharpton for advice. This is a joke.

This is so sad. We are about to have an economic collapse. Nothing will stop it. Hopefully it will Obama supporters that hurt the worst in this mess.

 Quoting: A Pimp Named Slick Back 24419860


And yet you call yourself "A Pimp"... Some people are not helped by years of education. Were you hired through 'Affirmative Action" by any chance?

Hmm... Glad the employees of the medical company were well paid. They were, weren't they? They weren't part-time workers without benefits, I suppose. Did you ever learn that before and during the Civil War, blacks owned slaves? Black entrepeneurs know how to make money, all right.

Congratulations for throwing your vote away. Stopping Obama with Gary Johnson was not going to happen, but you were just "blowing smoke", not really participating in the most important election of your lifetime.

Thanks for your comments.

rant
 Quoting: 13th-Century


The name is from a cartoon, The Boondaocks, just something silly.

The employees were payed well, phlebotomist, with highschool educations and a bit more training, made between $15 and $40 per patient (based on distance from headquaters, home care). It wasn't uncommon for some of them to make $60k a year, they were 1099 workers. The people that worked in the labs were salary with benifits, and paid according to education.

Yup, I know black people owned slaves. However, my ancestors were slaves, owned by white people. You know what is funny, their owner left all his land to my great great grandfather and his brother (I think that is the right amount of greats), instead of his son's, because they were more involved and harder working people than his children. That dedication to work (and education) has been passed down through the generations.

Nope, I was hired on merit. Plenty of black people work for this company, I'm sure the quota was already met. Plus, I've made them money, millions, have awards for it, I'm sure I've earned my keep, and will continue to do so as long as they will have me.

My vote was my vote, I voted for who I thought was the most conservative person running. The thought of a vote being wasted (as if it really matters) is the problem with voting anyways.

I'm not sure if you are speaking of me, or the people complaining about my parents spending their own money.

You know, teach a guy to fish sort of thing. My parents (and the people I come from) believe in helping others obtain the "American Dream," as long as they plan to maintain those dreams themselves.

Re: Obamas plan 20-day, $4 million vacation...during Time of Fiscal Cliff hitting US Economy
Has anyone considered that this vacation planning and its detals such as cost and location during these economic hardships our country is facing was designed and shared with the public to be used as a decoy? A 20 day vacation from December 17th until January 6th ?
Has this ever happened before during any other administration a vacation for that length of time and during that exact time of year and if so was it announced to the public along with its details.

On a separate note yet related in so many ways. The top 200 US private firms earned about $1.5 trillion in 2012 with names such as Cargill and Bechtel construction firm. Private firms or privately held corporations never have to disclose the source of their income to anyone. The same company with has built many underground facilities in the US and other Countrys in the past. Koch Industries, a privatly held conglomerate who's top expertise is petroleum and natural gas infrastructure design and construction, which has also been involved in the construing numerous substructures that provide energy for power, heating and cooling for many of the same underground facilities built by Bechtel. We cannot conclude this without mentioning the largest privately In the US by revenue with a $134 Billion in 2012 which again is responsible for the procurement and processing of food.
These are just something to consider, I am not claming this to the truth but rather some interesting connections I have made during my research since none of what makes sense anymore. We have been lied to and missled too many time in the past and it is time for us to begin demanding to know how or tax money is spent especially when it is been diverted to privately held corporations. Our nation debt is over $16 Trillion for those of you who are not aware. That is $16 TRILLION and continues to go up... Cmon people how are going to ever pay this back. Of course I don't expect a lot of you to respond to this part but if you do then I ask to take the time to research it or get some who knows what this means before responding. We have enough uninformed people out there and we do not need anymore.

He ran away to Vegas during the ME problems on 9/11 and straight out lied about his knowledge regarding what/and who was responsible for the deaths of four loyal Americans. I don't care what anyone says, he had access to the intelligence coming out of the region and did nothing but lie about the whole incident.

Personally I'm not surprised that he would take his family and hide on the tax payers dime when he should be heading up and being the leader that this country reelected to resolve this crisis! If not resolved, the "fiscal cliff" will impact many folks especially the lower income folks for years to come.

What a disgrace and huge disappointment. I voted for him the first election, but fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice, shame on you! Not this time.
