How much money does a person have to make to be hated by Democrats? Anyone who makes more than Obama?

Obama is a millionaire too. Doesn't that make him evil? Don't you want his money? If he does well on an investment, doesn't that just tick you off?
As a political atheist that does not buy into either paradigm presented to us to choose from, I have to object.

Acquiring Money through whatever means does not equal success.
Are you envious and jealous of the many dictators around the world that keep their people in poverty while lavishing themselves? Are you against destructive policies and actions that are detrimental to a nation?

The issue is not about envy but the destructive people in our midst that continue to engage in policies detrimental to this nation, where they show no allegiance nor care what happens to others nor this country because of their actions.

If it makes you feel better to drive home the point that envy is not involved to those types of people, I propose an equitable solution.

We convert all the money these destructive types have made into paper money, in one big pile, sit them on top of the pile and light it on fire, then throw a few percent in their coffin so they can take it with them as well. God is their money however means they can make it, so they can burn with it here and in the afterlife.

That does not apply to people making an honest and moral living through their jobs or business.

This thread is like a circle jerk....

Clinton sold the jobs to China long ago. Obama has invested there ever since himself. It's just hard to hear him tell it thru all that uhh uhh err err ahh ummm BS that vomits out his mouth.

Sure Romney has invested in china and all you lefties buy it every day at WALMART, so your not foolin anyone but yourselves.

Each month I send a new machine or 2 to commie red china too, and get some of our money back. I must eat food too.

How many American companies do you think operate in other countries? How many do you think outsource?

Thousands.

Romney is responsible for that?


Why do businesses move to other countries?

Have you seen our corporate tax rate?



You guys are just socialists and you're mad because you're not getting as much as someone else. You think that your solutions are noble, but your ideology is really an impediment to prosperity. America will have to move ahead in spite of you.

Are you saying that the people of this nation should only look out for their own interests and show no allegiance nor care for this nation?

Are you also saying that like the criminal elite at the top, we should be able to create our own individual laws to follow that benefit ourselves since it is quite clear the criminal elite do the same for them to benefit from?

Besides, having everyone follow the same laws as in WE sounds too socialist and communistic. As individuals, we should be able to pursue our dreams and visions without the criminal elite stacking the deck in their favor, sarcastically speaking of course.

It sounds like you are then part of the problem then.
And I am not a democrat, nor do I shop at Commie Walmart.

I'm not saying that at all. There are safety nets for those who can't do for themselves. There are many companies right here in America. Many of them operate overseas too. The Ford Focus is made in Mexico. Are you saying that Ford should be forced to manufacture those cars here?

You can thank congress for the laws we have.

If you don't want anything to do with money that's your choice. If you would be happier hunting and foraging, go ahead.

Wealthy people donate millions of dollars to charities in this country.


If you have a solution, spell it out. I have a hunch that it's going to have something to do with taxing and redistribution though.

But take the Sensata scenario to the nth degree.

Let's say more and more companies slash jobs here and send them overseas, until all manufacturing jobs are overseas.

Where would that leave us? We can't all be lawyers.

It's inconceivable that Romney has the audacity toi run for the Presidency.
Obama Owns Shares in Chinese Company

and this one

Why Romney can't save the Sensata workers - The Term Sheet: Fortune's deals blog Term Sheet

Quote:
For the uninitiated, here's a quick backgrounder: Late last year, a Bain-owned company called Sensata Technologies (ST) agreed to buy an auto-sensor manufacturing unit from Honeywell (HON). From the outset, Sensata said that it planned to move the jobs overseas at year-end 2012, since the majority of its auto-sensor business is in Asia. In fact, Sensdata didn't even buy the manufacturing facility from Honeywell. It leased it, with Honeywell expected to hang a for-sale sign when Sensata moves out in a few months.
the majority of its auto-sensor business is in Asia

Get it? Sensata didn't do business in the United States so why on earth would they want to stay in this country much less a crappily run state like Illinois?

Democrats have turned success into something to be scoffed at. Very sad.

Success should be something to aspire to. Democrats are just completely distorting reality and increasingly negative and harmful to America.
I don't call success something that is built by destroying others. I call it evil.
