Again, you cannot dispute my point, so you instead have nothing to come back with except to accuse me of hating business owners and wanting their money. You're adorable when you're angry and without any argument, did you know that?

Keep flailing, it's both cute and amusing.

The world works like a victorian clock, and there are many parts, everyone doing his/her part. But, everyone builds their own success. Whether that is a business, or otherwise.

Don't feel sorry for me, I do well.

Exactly. When my business failed so bad that I became homeless 15 years ago, I didnt run around blaming society for my own failures. I kicked myself in the ass and rebuilt from the ground up. Not once did these ignorant aholes on these forums come and help me rebuild but now they want to take credit for it..

Robin, you said it perfectly. I have to repeat.

"Everybody has those same advantages - education, treachers coaches. Some (evidently NOT you) do something special with it, while others (the "Whiney, do-nothing" people) squander it.

OP is one of those whiney types, obviously.

The only people whining in this thread are the lower-income, non-business owners who are reacting very poorly to the simple, self-evident truth that no business owner builds a business by him/herself.

Then again, these same folks whine all the time, in every thread on every day of the week. They're always being victimized, even when it's someone else being victimized. You're what I would call, "victimization overachievers."

Dispute your point? You started the thread, its up to YOU to back it up which you havent. All you did was claim others including the government builds peoples businesses...

Backup YOUR claim by telling me how government helped to build my business..

I aint angry, I'm embarassed for people like you..

First, yes someone gave you life by bearing you. Second someone clothed and fed you for some period during your minority and conceivably gave you an education. You likely did not pay for this for at least some period during your minority.

Clearly though eventually some people are more successful at gaining resources almost always by mutually beneficial cooperation with other people. No one is entirely self sufficient even if people are not giving you things you are still likely depending on mutually beneficial cooperation to get a fair amount of the material goods and services you need.

Not only did he capture Benedict Arnold, but he also rousted Dolly Madison out of the White House some years later. when it was on fire They tried to get him to help Dixie in '62, but he was too busy constructing the Hunley all by himself.
