You do not belong here.

All this stuff:
" They get Obama phones, 5 years of unemployment, food stamps, and a whole host of welfare. The rich most definitely. I'm in the 1% and have most of my wealth in stocks, real estate, and other investments. The last 5 years has been beautifully bountiful to 1%. Our portfolios have expanded nicely with all this Quantitative Easing. Low rates have been nice too, where the 1% has snapped up nice real estate properties at low prices from their cronies, the Big Banks, for renting out at high rents to all those middle class people who lost their homes in 2008-9. I saw that happen in a home right across the street from me. Our upper middle class friends lost their home, a company came in 3 years later and bought it for half the price, and now rents it to a nice family for a healthy rent."

I do not expect you to snopes yourself and I have neither the time nor the inclination to post corrections to the kind if tripe your post contains. It's sad I have to do even the first one. But I don't want to see you here again- not because you're a bad person, but because this is NOT the thread for you. Why you didn't read the thread header and figure this out, I will never understand. This is a place for people of the center and the left- and you are neither- this has become very clear. I've no idea why you even want to be here, but sadly, you don't fit- and I'll give you the chance to leave without a ban. If you look up any of the stuff you believe, you're going to find out things are different than you think they are. I have anecdotes that beat your anecdotes- but who cares? Nothing lies like an anecdote- some of the biggest political chicanery started with anecdote. The glittering generalities you post sans facts, sans logic, obviously appeal to you- but you need to post them elsewhere. Goodbye and good luck.
