3. Um, look around. The wealthy 1% has stolen most everything that isn't nailed down.
They just let you use it in return for your miserable labors.
If you don't want to live by their rules, fine, you can go starve.
Or they put you in prison and make the rest of us miserable laborers pay for your keep.
:wohoo: capitalism!
Bah, **** that.
Just once I'd like to hear one of these idiots to explain this! Oh, and DUmmies, you can start with your own. Richest people in the world are leftists but because they spew pretty words about all your little pet causes, they get a pass. The Koch brothers don't have as much as some of your champions of people's rights.
The boy king has become filthy rich during his presidency, while touting workers' rights & food stamps. Women in his administration make less than men do. That pretty much makes him a hypocrite.
Nancy Pelosi's husband is a rich capitalist.
All those Hollywood actors, actresses and singers constantly promote income equality, global
warming climate change and whatever is the cool cause of the moment. They also have lavish parties for themselves and the president. None of you would ever be invited. How about you start with them and when they practice what they preach you can make a case for the rest of us.
If they believe what they say, every single one of them should give up their big, lavish homes and private jets. President excepted, though it would be helpful to not fuel up the plane to pick up his dogs. No reason they can't take them along with them. Might want to cut down Michelle's lavish vacations and enormous staff, who make a larger carbon footprint than any other first lady in history.
How about they "live simply so others can simply live"? What possible reason could they have to need a house so big when they don't even use half the rooms? It should be enough for them to live in an upper middle class home. The rest of their money could be used to practice what they preach. If they turned their mansions into homeless shelters and affordable apartments for people on welfare and the working poor, it would get a lot of people off the streets and out of Valerie Jarrette's tenements. And paying money they won't miss to Algore's tree planting scam doesn't get them off the hook for their large carbon footprints, while we're forced to use poisonous light bulbs, high heating and electric bills and whatever taxes your side deems necessary to protect the planet. And coming to a country near you: severe limitations on wood stoves. Other countries can use it for cooking and heat and people all over the world have been using fire and stoves for decades. For some reason, it hasn't been a problem for the earth. But now it is. Thanks for that.
