The "tea sipper" I was referring to, was you. It is the fond nickname us Aggies have for you "party school" boys. I am old enough to know what liberals were once called in this country. Socialists!! If you have to work 60 hour weeks to make a living, you must not be very smart. That comes from lack of education. Having been a long time, consistent, volunteer myself, such work has no political boundaries, but conservatives do not feel the need to brag about their charitable attitudes, or contributions. You liberals seem to want a medal for helping your fellow man. I guess that medal makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Abe Lincoln was a Republican. I guess you consider him to be an arrogant SOB, by your own comments. If it weren't for company owners, regardless of party affiliations, you so called "working men" would not have a job to go to. You do not risk your capital that could ruin your family if the venture goes broke. You take no responsibility for any employee except yourself. You are not "on call" 24/7 in the event of any sort of emergency. You take your paycheck and run, without a care in the world. Don't that make you feel important? No, the working man did not "create" any wealth. His efforts, for which he received pay that he agreed upon, built the products, and services, financed by the business owner, that added to the gross national product. You don't know any more about the workings of the business world, than you know about the many advances, and improvements, made by GW in our state. You are just teed off because he won't give you a free ride. <>H<>
