It is government services that allows those high earnings.
This is one of the most utterly stupid remarks I've ever seen.
In my life I've known a good number of people one would consider "wealthy" -- perhaps with 20 or 50 Million in the bank. With one exception, maybe two, that wealth has come with ZERO help from the government.
One of my customers was fired from his job in 1980 as a salesman. He said, "That's the last time THAT will happen." And started his own business. Today, he easily has 50M in the bank. Not one ounce of government involvement (even as a customer). Another sold his banks for nearly a billion dollars. Not one ounce of government involvement. Another, who was impoverished for years, struck success with a real estate franchise and recently died wealthy. No government help.
What in HELL are you talking about? Successful people, for the most part, are successful because they keep as far away from government as they can. They pay their taxes, but are individuals who are driven to succeed. A few profit from the government, but most profit because they work hard and are good at what they do.
To blatantly claim that "government services" allow these people to do what they do is utterly stupid. Most of these people want nothing, whatsoever, to do with the government, and the malfunctioning way in which it purports to operate.
What a dumbassed, clueless remark. |
