So if you wish to work hard and earn a living get ahead and leave something to your children, did that just fall out of the sky?

So the people that have money because they inherited it, was it always in the family? Did it magically fall out of the sky and end up in a great uncles lap or some story like that? Or did someone in the family have to earn it somehow, by hook or crook it does not matter. Look at the Kennedy's. From where did their money come? Walt Disney's grandchildren. Did the money just fall out of the sky and end up in Walts pockets?

The Kennedy's dad was a bootlegger.
That makes him the equivalent of a drug dealer by today's standards.
So, you're saying we should sell drugs to get ahead?
There is a demand for it.
You can make a lot of money, if you're willing to make the sacrifices.

Watch the film Tucker, starring Jeff Bridges.
That is the true story of a man who created a superior product than the competitors.
And those competitors did everything possible to destroy him.
His courtroom speech about innovators and the free market still ring true today.
And that was back in the 1940's!

"slacker (and others)..if you think it's a level playing field and EVERYONE has the SAME opportunities... then you're at least as ignorant as you constantly paint all democrats as being."

Prove yourself not to be a liar and a slanderer.

Go get the post where I said anything even similar to the words with which you attempt to slander or discredit me. Or stand tall and proud as a liar.

I have said that it is God who blesses the ungodly as well as the Godly as He sees fit. Other than that.......

Can't you liberal brain dead morons come up with anything on your own without putting words in someone else's mouth that they never said or implied? If you learn to use your brains you wouldn't have to lie or imply things that are not true.

I'm not putting words into your mouth.
I am just demonstrating that, logically, this is the implication of what you are saying.
If A=1 and B=1...then, A+B=2, correct?

Lies are all that our enemy has.

Unfortunately history shows that people are stupid enough to be manipulated by the liars.

Dane,

Here are a couple of other points. My uncle did not teach me electronics> When I got an Xtal set for my birthday I became obsessed with it and wanted to understand how it worked. I messed around with stuff at home before I even ASKED my uncle if I could try to repair stuff in his shop. He did not teach me as he knew that I would have more experience figuring things out for myself. So you can scratch the I fell into an electronic education along with the other.

Now explain this to me. Do you own or ever hope to own a house a car or anything on your own? If you were like the majority of us, you had to find a job to pay for it. Now that is excluding those who sit around and get a check for nothing they ever earned.

I would hop that you could get the drift without my pursuing this train of thought further. People don't want the hardships that go along with gaining wealth today. In my opinion this is a gimmie gimmie gimmie steal from their brother and take it for themselves frame of mind generation.

And not even that!!

These whining mooches do not even have the guts to go and steal the money for themselves, they want the government to do that for them.

Dane, if you and those like you would get of your asses and go to work and quit pissing over what someone else has, because they paid the price for it, and earn your own way, perhaps prosperity would be yours without you desiring to steal what your brother has earned by his hard work.

never stole a thing in my life, never have drawn food stamps, never drawn Aid to Dependent Children or whatever that progam is that pays for poor women to have children, worked my ass off putting up hay and tending sows, trapping muskrats, BEFORE I WAS 13 years old.. no, you have it wrong if you think I even desire anybody's wealth.. but I know sure as hell there are people that are less fortunate than either you and I and you or I could become one of those people without money or food and that's why they had "Poor Houses" in the 1800's sponsored by mainly the rich, but the rich folks acted and thought different back then, knowing it was the right thing to do to alleviate the suffering of the destitute.. farmers were the majority of households and a bad year with crops failing created many poor and hungry people even though they had worked their asses off all year as you call it..

WTF?

are you off your meds? again and again you've made your views clear on that score.

and each time any and everyone who doesn't hold your self centered right wing myopic "i got mine screw everyone else" views..they're a mooch, a bloodsucker, a brain dead moron, an idiot, or worse.

prove myself not a liar? thanks, no. i need to prove no such thing.

talking about swine husbandry as a legitimate business Slacker, you and I are both originally from Iowa, you Sioux City, me from Chariton, but did you know the giant corporate hog farm people have lobbied so much in Congress at to get laws enacted to make it illegal to farrow sows as a small business... look it up..l the corporate hog farm people have killed off mom and pop small farms to kill all competition..look it up..

self centered right wing myopic "i got mine screw everyone else" views..

I agree, no point in it. You've already given enough proof with your mischaracterization in that libelous statement.

I will bet a dollar to a hole in a donut that some right winger will come on here and say Robin Hood is a myth or legend, and that the rich in that time of history did not mistreat the poor.. (cause they could) same as in today's world, little poor people have no "voice" cause of Slacker's golden rule philosophy.. he who has the gold sets the rules to increase their ill-gotten gains with unfair practices made into law to further advantage the rich against the poor..

In your little fantasy world Robinhood lived 100's of years ago. In todays civilization the people are supposed to have a voice. In capitolism you work your tail off make sacrifices and you are rewarded PERIOD! Now let me get this straight Dane, you set on your butt and sell things on ebay I'm guessing that doesn't pay much? Then you SPEW your communist views and hatred of folks that do get off their ass and make things happen. Since they are successful they are the bad guys in your eye's? BWA HA HA HA HA HA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I was beginning to think you are a good guy instead I now believe you are full of SH!T! Sorry but thats the way I see it through "my eye's"!

HALEY, mmmm, you do realize there are people pulling in over 6 figures on ebay? a year..just sayin'..thanks for stooping to a level you really seem to enjoy.. the level of a snake's belly..

see, that's more of the same the myopic thinking and ballyhooing from the compassionless righties who got their's so screw everyone else.

but guess what....everyone who feels the rich and super rich should pay a higher rate does not hate them, isn't jealous of them, and doesn't resent them.

i don't...i just think they need to pay their fair share. plain and simple.

slacker (and others)..if you think it's a level playing field and EVERYONE has the SAME opportunities... then you're at least as ignorant as you constantly paint all democrats as being.

Mark, libs sure do sound like ya'll hate the rich, in fact I have never seen more envy, hatred, toward one group of people in my life. No one here is saying the rich shouldn't pay their fare share. I certainly am not cause I ain't rich. The concern "we rightwingers" have is this really good for the job market? I remember how hard a time I had supporting my family when I was 21 in the early 80's recession. You know what my biggest fear is? That the same will happen again, the rich will set on their money not investing it! Seriously I do see that happening if ya'll keep this eat the rich mentallity going!

You are still clinging to the nonsense of Reaganism.
"Just give more money to the rich and it will create more jobs."
Well, THAT experiment FAILED, miserably.

I don't envy the rich anymore than I would envy a school bully who takes other kids' lunch money.
I want the f*cker to straighten up or get lost.
