We are talking two different things. Plutocrats, super pacs wealth disparity out of control in the context of technology, globalization and financial engineering via the fed is bleeding this countries middle and working class dry.  Totally agree on self empowerment making your future being smart, financially savy and investing wisely regardless of the macro picture...yada, yada..   
  What is happening in Ferguson makes me sick and the bleeding heat liberals make me even sicker.   Everybody plays the victim,  Rather than being angry at police or white people (most of whom survive paycheck to paycheck or succeeded starting from nothing) be mad at yourselves, be mad you don't vote, be mad you dropped out of school and didn't build real skills to succeed in the real world, be mad you have exhibited zero financial responsibility and have to borrow at 20%, be mad your family unit is non existent, be mad you are anti education, be mad you ridicule those trying to better themselves for 'acting' white, be mad at Lebron and Michael for your kids paying $150 for sneakers, be mad at the plutocrats and super wealthy for being so f**king greedy not wanting their precious profit margins squeezed for the sake of better infrastructure and public schools,  |
