"You really haven't a clue what life is like outside of being in the top .5%-2% of earner range."

Of course not. He went straight from college to Intel, where he's plodded ever since. He's not a risk taker. He hasn't had even ONE failure to learn from.

Most guys go to silicon valley to join a startup and hope it's the next Google or FaceBook. Not our Ten - he signs with a corp that was high tech thirty years ago now selling a commodity product.

Z, you're obviously unable to go beyond the easy target for blame, which is the big banks, so I'll just make it really simple for you to understand.

No one was forced into subprime mortgages. No one was forced to buy houses at what we now see were inflated prices.

The "liars" are bipartisan. Even Barney Fwank and Chuck Schumer were all for the housing bubble before they were against it.

The sooner you realize this, the sooner you will let go of your fantasy that either party, including the Democrats, are here to protect us from these lies.
