LOL and YOU are screwing yourself by supporting illegal immigration. Didn't you ever hear of supply and demand. I can't understand why you don't get how an increase in labor hurts you. ROLL EYES

I don't hate the rich, but I don't worship them either, unlike some on the right.
True- plus those on The right only worship and admire Only the conservative rich who they feel "stick it" to the liberal poor. The rich liberals are mocked as "liberal elites" who didn't earn it. Only wealthy conservatives earned it, wealthy libs inherited or married into theirs.
I don't think it's hate for rich people (or we wouldn't have the idolization of Hollywood movie stars and sports heroes) In my opinion, it's the greedy rich that what they have is never enough. They want more and more and more, and they don't care who they run over to get it. Take for instance, in Florida, the power and utility companies are pretty much monopolies. When one woman up in Northern Florida decided to invest in creating a home that ran on solar power and wells, making her totally independent from living on the grid, lawmakers got together and hastily devised a law that Florida residents must be connected to the grid or they will be evicted. They try to claim it's for sanitary reasons, but we all know it's because the power companies are so greedy, they can't stand losing one cent to another alternative.
Just look at the airlines. They don't care if you're being hassled, they just want to make as much profits as they can.
Movie stars and sports athletes don't really get wealthy by taking advantage of people. Also they are quite often some of the most generous people.
- The interest you pay on debt is someone else's income.
- When you buy a product, a portion of that money becomes someone else's income.
- When you pay for a service (ex: internet) a portion of that money becomes someone else's income.
- When you work, you exchange your time for money, they invest their money to produce profit
Since people hate the rich so much they should stop using debt and stop buying their products or services and in a renters case don't rent from them.
So do you admire ALL rich or only the conservative rich?
Who made them rich? In many cases their employees did because they couldn't do it all by themselves.
What bothers me is that they resent us for it. The very rich avoid the working class like the plague.
Managers convince you that you are a professional and that a professional works a ten hour day. Salaries may have reflected a superior effort at at one time, but don't now.
The rich convince politicians that there is a shortage of technical workers. There's not.
Social Security and Medicare are under attack by the rich. The rich blame us for not saving enough for retirement when they fire us at fifty and then want us to wait until 67 to collect SS. Oh boy I can save so much with that extra fifty dollars a month that is left over after they squeeze me dry.

Yep, illegal immigration results in driving wages down so how can Democrats say they are for the working poor.

Once again, did I say I admired the rich? I said the rich contribute a lot to society. Why does the left always put words in other people's mouths. Do you have that hard of a time understanding?

I have no idea I asked that before on here they never answer the question.. and I never see anyone ask them that on any of the news shows either. It's very odd and perplexing. Ann Coulter is one of the only people I've seen bring up the subject and one of her last books talked about it.

Well Democrats like illegal immigration because the anchor babies grow up to become voters, plus the illegals have extended family networks, many of whom are voters themselves.
