      What percentage of your income did you donate to charity this year?

Raise minimum wage so that a guy working a job that requires no trained skill can support a wife and two kids.
        Very well stated
        ....love welfare and ALWAYS vote democrat
        bettilimbroke, I understand why you vote democratic as its in your best interest to do so. I also understand why you despise the republicans as they want to take that free welfare money away from you.
        I'm perfect, I've had to move on to improving others
        You know full well that you are UNABLE to financially support yourself, so you decide to go ahead and have more children to increase your welfare check and yet you call yourself perfect?

        You are a pathetic disgrace to the human race and FAILURE is going to follow you around for as long as you live.

          Those are illegals genius, fresh scrapes from climbing over the fence, they can't apply for welfare. If they could get a legal job do u think they'd be lined up at the street corner hoping to suck a gringos rooster for 3 bucks an hour

                You're pretty ignorant if you don't think that illegals are working legitimate jobs in the United States.

                  But you expect everyone else to donate? LOL.

                  So, you're a panhandler. Your parents must be proud.

                        His employees didn't NEED to have three kids. That was your choice. Not his.

                        I'm sure he would get over it if you chose to seek employment elsewhere.

                                      Republican, Democrat?? You are shitting me right?

                                      The OP spouts socialist/democratic ideals while living a capitalistic/republican lifestyle.
                                      Posterboy for... " lukewarm" ??

                                      You do realize that is just a way of making people believe they actually have a say?

                                      Exhibit A-
                                      The "democrat" presently in office is carrying out the same agenda as the "Republican" before him.
                                      War on terror = war on the middle-class since all the money being funnelled out of the economy will result in their demise.
                                      mom and pop...

                                      You are arguing over Apples and Oranges here.

                                      "The proof is in the pudding"

                                      The USA was created to be a nest for totalitarians to use Capitalism( I WANT ALL & FUK U) as a means of acquiring the assets needed to bring about a new world order. The cabal doesn't like any of you and you are not their friends.
                                      With that said, can you expect anything other than what we are witnessing?

                                      The minority is growing and will soon be the majority. The only trouble is that when they reach majority status it will be too late. They will be governed by the top 2% in what is known as an Oligarchy and it will not be pretty. In fact it will be downright ugly.

                                      OP- 3rd base is nice, the only problem is that when u are standing on 3rd you are still 25% of the way from home-FREE ... That is a far cry from 2%.

                                      Wake-up bruh!
                                      You and the greeter at walmart REALLY are on the same team... well, BASE!



                                      **-Oligarchy (Greek Ὀλιγαρχία, Oligarkhía) is a form of organization by (ostensibly) the best and the brightest. Such states were often controlled by powerful families whose children were raised and mentored to be heirs of the power of the oligarchy. However, this power may also not be exercised openly, the oligarchs preferring to remain "the power behind the throne"(Cabal), exerting control through economic means. Although Aristotle pioneered the use of the term as a synonym for rule by the rich, for which the exact term is plutocracy, oligarchy is not always a rule by wealth, as oligarchs can simply be a privileged group.

                                      Russia has been labeled an oligarchy because of the power of certain individuals, the oligarchs, who gained great wealth after the fall of Communism. Critics have argued that this happened in illegitimate ways and was due to corruption.

                                        Right. People like Larry Ellison, Steve Jobs, Mark Cuban, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Sheldon Adelson, Kirk Kerkorian, Ralph Lauren, etc., etc. all built their brands and products from nothing just to exert their dominance over you and deprive you of basic human needs. It has been in the works since Sheldon Adelson's dad spoke to Adolf Hitler in his taxicab. Bill Gates dropped out of school just to throw us a curveball and keep us off of his scent. Oprah Winfrey has been beaming subliminal messages in her broadcasts. Mark Cuban isn't just winning NBA championships. He's spying on the crowd. Steve Jobs isn't dead. He's sorting through the data on your computer right now!

                                        It's all a big conspiracy! Sh1t! We're f0cked!

                                        Just wait until Ralph Lauren's starvation pants come out and Sheldon Adelson won't comp you for a buffet...

                                        Imagine what the world will come to.

                                                      You might be right. I wish you could convince the Books of this. They obviously don't believe this because if they did believe it they would never limit ANYONE to $50 or $25 wagers. If we're all Losers in the long run... why do the Books set low limits on some players?

                                                                    Even when you win YOU STILL FAIL.

                                                                      The real problem isn't the uneven distribution of wealth; rather, it's knowing that someone else has more money than you. Look at it this way: what if everyone at your company knew everyone else's salary? It'd be total chaos. CEO salaries only became an issue when the SEC required companies to publish executive compensation and CEOs suddenly were able to say, "You need to pay me more than the prez of THAT company".

                                                                      I say, make it a crime to tell people how much you make, how much you've got in the bank, etc. Anyone who gets caught bragging gets thrown in the slammer. Any publication that puts out lists of wealthy people gets shut down. Then, we'll all be happy.

                                                                      At least until People magazine publishes their "Sexist Men" issue and they leave me out again.

                                                                        This economy is because of companies doing what other companies are doing. One large

                                                                        Workers are afraid for their jobs and will save instead of spend, adding to the already fragile

                                                                        Companies were already sitting on large amounts of inventory. When they were depleting
                                                                        their inventory, they raised prices. This is why corps are sitting on massive amounts of money.
                                                                        Instead of expanding during a normal recession, they are dabbling in the markets and making
                                                                        huge amounts of profit. Why expand, when they can make money for nothing?

                                                                        I can never understand how the free market works. People need to buy your product, but
                                                                        will put their work force on wages comparable to welfare. If all companies do that, who's

                                                                        Our govt needs a long term tax plan also. Corps need to know what their long term costs

                                                                        US Corps stationed overseas, who are exempt from US taxes need their goods double taxed when shipping their goods here.

                                                                        Yes, that would hurt the already struggling, but might bring those corps back to America
