Class Warfare

And this goes to show that the Democrats have successfully amped up the class warfare. Taxes are one issue. We all pay way too much in taxes, regardless of what we earn. It is reckless and unconscionable that our very own government has nothing but disdain for business and the people that work in those businesses. Crooks belong in jail. Too say or imply that all managers or owners are greedy because they work hard and want to make money is absolutely stunning. There is a reason many came to America and were very happy to raise their children in a country that put no limits on their potential. Amazingly Americans don't know what the "American Dream" is or was anymore. We have a President that talks about "greedy" speculators? Hello world, those "speculators", better known as stockholders, are all of us that have retirement accounts. Our hard earned money goes in to those companies and unlike the government, those companies are expected to produce and earn! Class warfare, straight up. Are there terrible companies that deserve to fail? Of course. Are there lousy cheats running various entities? Of course. And who props them up? Our government. Banks that made bad business decisions should have been left to fail. Our Government that likes to regulate everything sees to it they can pull all sorts of shady crap on their customers-they are not looking out for us as they should be-they get their cash from the bank lobby and screw us. Car companies that have not been able to build a car people want to buy should have been left to fail. In their defense they have bureaucrats that have never produced anything telling them how to build their vehicles. They have also not stood up to unions and that is also a big part of their demise. People that bought houses they clearly couldn't afford should lose those houses. Our Government and idiots like Barney Frank had a huge hand in that debacle. Government interference in all of these areas has exacerbated the problems. But for the government that simply takes and takes and takes to vilify people and businesses that work hard for a profit, shame, shame on them. Folks need to wake up because the “rich” bar keeps getting lowered. Those of us that have worked for 45 years and saved for our retirement don’t feel like greedy rich people! All this stimulus BS cash? If they would have sent $100,000.00 to each of us we could have been more successful at stimulating and the cost would have been substantially lower. The fat cats, both sides, just pulled off the biggest scam in the history of this country!
