Unlike you, I don't let my inner rage drive me to pretentious beliefs. Your posts prove otherwise Al. You make non sensible statements accusing me of inner rage... clearly projecting your own issues into the discussion.. without ever replying to my points. Example : Are you OK with 50% of the voting population not paying any taxes ? An easy question unless you are an ideologue. Like BO you rant and never answer. Is it OK with you that those who do not pay any taxes at all get to decide how much those who do pay Taxes pay out ? You, the right, bitch that this increasing wealth comes with a tax price. Al... there does exist a grand canyon between your reality and my reality. You could care less that my hard earned tax $$'s are pissed away without a thought by corrupt politicians. Not one politician has said why dont we stop spending. My belief, learned by experience, is that the way you go from lower income levels to higher income levels by working hard and putting away $$'s. In your world, on the other side of the canyon, you get something for nothing by doing nothing.. just have Uncle Obama Aligheri impose taxes on those that work hard and give it to those that do not. So as you can see... there are no misconceptions in my head... just in yours. You believe in getting something for nothing. You believe that failure should be rewarded with bailouts. I believe failure should result in starting over with nothing and working hard to succeed. When incentives to succeed are removed by government, guys like you are no longer employed by guys like me. So you look for handouts. Thats why your not in the trenches Al. Your misconception that the rich, like Gates and Buffet, do nothing to help those in need. Your wrong. Even middle class families, like mine, give generously to charity to help those that are not well off. Its not my beliefs that are pretentious.
