    * You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
    * You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

    * You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
    * You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
    * You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money.
    * You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
    * You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than you earn.
    * You cannot build character and courage by destroying men's initiative and independence.
    * You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can and should do for themselves.

    It's funny that when it's money going from the rich to the poor it's inciting class hatred but when it's the rich rigging the rules in their favor it's fine. When the rich fuck over the poor, when they destroy the middle class, that's cool. Ask the rich to give more because they have more and it's a war.

    But here's the bigger problem with this diatribe, you call it the brotherhood of man (should be siblinghood of people) and then you refer to the poor as little and weak. You refer to the rich as big and strong. You imply that poor people lack the character of the rich because they're not rich. Brother, those are fighting words and it sounds like you are the one that wants the war.
    If you think you have the right to what I earn and you think that's equitable that's how wars start. This is America. We used to be free. You have the right to work as much as you can and make all the money you can and to keep what you earn. You have a right to buy property, build and live freely with excessive government interference or control.

    You have no right to free stuff, money food stamps, section 8, WIC, wealth redistribution, college tuition or anything your neighbor owns. Many of which were the result of republican thought but meant only for temporary use not generational support.

    Wanting what your neighbor has is envy. This is the generation of envy. Driven by a political party of laziness and lack of ambition that thinks they are entitled to everything paid for by the work of others. Work and earn it that's what our f'ing country is all about!

    For those that don't believe in these principals Cuba is only 90 miles away, it is a socialist workers paradise! Just ask all of the ones risking their lives to come here.

    My brother (or siblings) does not live off my earnings nor should you.

    War? War may well come when freedoms erode enough. Our forefathers thought there would be a revolution every 10-20 years. That's how much they feared a strong central government with the power to tax and take freedom at will.

    If that war were to come you will not like the outcome and I wouldn't like the process.
    Let's go back to the 50s then is what it sounds like you want. Before food stamps, section 8, wealth redistribution. Right?

    Remember 90% tax rate over $100k? What decade was that again?
    Yeah a lot more deductions then. It was never paid at that rate. Remember democrat John Kennedy lowered taxes and the money poured in? He'd be called a right wing loon today.
    You don't see the hypocrisy? Holy fuck. You complain about a 39.6% tax rate, a top rate of 15% if your income is investment based (like Buffet and Romney). Then want to go back to a prior time. And forget we were taxed out of the ass back then.

    I doubt you've ever earned anything.

    And if you have, what makes you think anyone wants your single wide and your Pinto wagon?

    Like a real flea I'm sure you suck the blood of the producers in our nation. I have more than one house and none of them have wheels. Oh but I do have an RV as well. I bet your Occupy Wall Street tent is the bomb though!
    Are you sure?

    lol

    Add that to the list of things you're both sure and wrong about.

    You have an RV?

    You're the best.

    Considering our forefathers had a revolution about an additional 1.5% tax on tea, yeah I think it's very excessive. Bernie want's 90%. Hillary thinks 65k a year makes you one of the "rich". But you don't see the stupidity in this?
