I think I deserve more? I am not the one asking for people to share the wealth lol.

This generation? I'm not "this generation" at all. I paid my dues when I was just out of school in the late 80's. People can be as successful as they want. I started at the bottom and worked my way up, over many years.

I have my own family to take care of and we can't afford to "share the wealth" with anyone. I got student loans and went to school, took YEARS to pay them off. Why did I do that? I got tired of only being able to get minimum wage jobs.

Well concider yourself fortunate or that you deserve anything.

You are no different than a lot of people who have not been as succesful but not from lack of education or hard work.

You were given an opportunity at some point in you life and if you have employees, you know that you can not be successful without them. Because "you" can't do it all by yourself.

Consider yourself special then. You are better then everyone else.

Yes, I had an opportunity that I GAVE TO MYSELF, I went back to school.

I don't have employees, like I said, I work for a living, I do not have a business.

I took care of myself, it's nothing special, people have been doing that for hundreds of years. This "people take care of me" mentality has been sneaking in the last few years and gotten very prevalent the last about 5 years..wonder why?

Stop believing the lies that this Administration is telling you..you can take care of yourself. The government is not your daddy and you can't count on them or anyone else.

The only person you can count on is you.

without food stamps we would be homeless.
some people need help.
don't forget that, please


there are not enough jobs for everyone right now...


the material world is out of control...


the rich/poor class system is just morally bankrupt.
 Quoting: Sundara


I know and understand all that, it has ALWAYS been that way. Many of us at times in our life have had to get food from a food bank.

People that are in a hard time and need help, don't say things like "spread the wealth" and then trash people that have worked hard and are doing ok.

Having a roof over your head, food, a car to drive to work, etc is not a "material world" at all. I know people that have a lot of money, my parents have a good bit. They buy many things I can't afford, I don't trash them for that. They worked hard for many, many years to get to that place.
