[quote:Anonymous Coward 1471236:MV8xODU1NTQyXzMwOTM3NDM4XzNGQjIwRjM0] [quote:Anonymous Coward 15406434:MV8xODU1NTQyXzMwOTM1NTAyXzVGODExNzU1] [quote:Sky Pilot:MV8xODU1NTQyXzMwOTM0NzAzXzkzQkU5NEM4] [quote:Golu hbk 15403729:MV8xODU1NTQyXzMwOTM0NTI0XzNDNjhCNzg3] If you do that then one day you will have money, and people will steal it too. The riches have earned it with their hardwork and dedication and the poors have spent their lives on predicting the next doom. [/quote] I think that you missed the point. The point is , that the US budget deficit is so bad, that there is no fucking way to balance it. [/quote] if you take the 72% wealth the 5% of your population has earned WITHOUT WORKING and is storing WITHOUT SPENDING, you will balance everything in just one day. (this figure does not even include swiss banks, cayman islands accounts of course) 95% of your society only does with 35% of wealth/income. that includes you. and all the others. the 5% which get 72% without working, expect you, 95% to pay for everything. they say they 'create jobs'. what a fantastic argument - they are taking 72% of everything, to create jobs for the rest 95% of society, so that they can make 95% work for themselves, and take 72% of everything they produce !!! the argument is like a medieval feudal lord defending his position by saying he confers protection on his subjects. [/quote] ding ding ding!!! Just like oprah who takes a BILLION dollars from all and then donates $25 million to charity and she's a fricking saint. It's very simple mathematics. Go watch the movie 'In Time'. It's not overly complicated and thinly veiled, but is a true reflection on what is going on today. [/quote]
