If it weren't for greed and jealousy the DUmmies would have nothing. Oh wait they do have nothing that is why they want to take money from everyone else.

In fact, I'll gladly help them pack...

So you want to run off the people who pay most of the tax bill to begin with?

10. That is the thinking by many low info voters

No actually the low information voters are demanding a 90% tax rate for the rich.

Maybe if the malcontents at the DUmp spent more time trying to figure out how they can make their own lives better, instead of worrying about what other people have they would learn that when one works for something they resent the hell out of jealous losers demanding a piece of their pie. The government already picks the pocket way too much of the producers. Meanwhile the takers sit at their computers and demand more and more.

I really do hate the DUmmies. Because of them and their desire to stick it to the man they are only hurting those of us who are in the middle class. I am so sick of them and their preezy making my paycheck smaller and smaller all while every living expense is going up and up. They would have stormed the white house with pitchforks and torches if we had the same economic conditions that 0bama has given us if some repuke was in office. They crucified Bush for gas at $4/ gallon yet under 0bama nothing to see here, inflate your tires and get a tune up, or just go buy a brand new car.  :banghead:

How much taxes did Al Gore avoid by pushing through the sale of his station to the oil-rich Muslims in Qatar before the first of this year?

I can't hear you DUmb****s?

How much did John Kerry (or actually his wife) saving by moving their yacht?

I have a question for the Dummies. Just something that I'm curious about.

Let's say that you weren't on the government handout line and had to work (yeah, I know, repulsive thought), but just for now, let's pretend that you had to work.

Let's say that the job that you got was moving boxes from one building to another. There were 10 boxes. You're told that you will be paid $100 per box moved, but for every box that you move AFTER THE FIRST BOX the money per box will be given to someone other than you. To someone that you don't even know.

How many boxes would you move?

I would only move 1 because I can buy a decent ounce of shake weed from my buddy for a $100.  /DUmode off

Moving boxes is beneath their dignity. Besides $10/box is not a living wage, and what about health insurance and retirement?

They don't understand stealing, they define it as someone who makes more than they think they should.

No, nobody has told you that you'd become rich.  But you'll certainly have a better CHANCE of becoming rich than should you spend the rest of your life with your ass assuming the shape and texture of the couch should you remain one of the bare-subsistence moocher class.

Me, I'd rather bust my ass for something more.  I might never become part of the 1%, but at least at the end of the day I can look in the mirror and say that what I have, I EARNED.  Can you make the same statement, DUmmies?  Can you really?

Neither have I, but take a trip to your local "government run low income housing" area and you will see what I'm talking about.

It'll be easy to find, just follow the pushers and crackwhores to their "homes".  Usually a lot of police cars there with blue lights on as well.

I seem to recall right after katrina hit New Orleans some cruise liner company berthed one close by and let the parasites from New Orleans live there. Within 2 weeks the denizens were complaining about the accomodations, and within a month or two the company kicked them all out and had to spend some unreal amount of money to fix the ship up where it had been trashed.

I've always said that if you didn't get something with your blood, sweat and tears, you darn sure won't take care of it. Every time I look at my vehicle I don't see a car, I see how many hours of work it took me to pay for it.

In all of my reading of the DUmpster here at the Cave and CU, I don't recall any of them talking about their house value or payment. They always complain about their rent increasing.

Very few, if any.

And the ones that "might" own something are usually living with elderly parents, waiting for them to die so they can get the house.

What a miserable and lowly existance. It's one thing if someone spends a lifetime building their own wealth and then lose it later in life for whatever reason. At least they did it. But, to have to hang around like a vulture as your only means of gaining wealth is just despicable.
