This is a clarifying argument.
The liberal Democrats maintain that the wealth of the country rightly belongs to the government, that is to say the permanent ruling class, in other words themselves.
They then have the right and responsibility to re-distribute it as they see fit.
Those of us who believe that the fruits of our labor should be our own, are their enemies.

Good to know where we all stand.

And to think, a few months ago this Marxist kook was one confirmation vote away from being over all the financial institutions in this country.

Funny how she ignores the billions paid by Americans to high pensions of GOVERNMENT workers. Unions are a huge problem yet you won't hear a word from her about that

She's not a "lefty". Neither "side" really likes her. The simple minds use labels to dismiss ideas unlike their own. That's why the US is in the ****ter. That being said, she must have something good going on.

How long since you have heard the kind of wisdom coming out of the Republican debates. It is going to be a very pleasing winter of 2012. Your friend here won't be a part of it.
You did not watch the video and I'm sure that you did not even read the link, therefore, if you choose to respond to posts without the benefit of facts and info to back you up, that is your choice. Waste your time if you choose, but I will not waste mine. I can spot a troll a mile away and expediently place them on "ignore". Have a nice life..or don't. Ciao.

BTW...The debate was a joke, which is probably why the GOP is scrambling for a new candidate as I type.

Let me be clear....NOBODY starts a business with the focus on creating jobs.

Jobs are a side effect of a creative, willing, intelligent, brave person with an idea.

People start businesses with the dream of becoming wealthy and successful.

The left are delusional in thinking that it should be anything more.

You are compensated for your value to that business....nothing more, nothing less.

There is a reason that we are in the condition we're in as a nation.

Every problem that we face has a leftist/socialist policy behind it.

TARP oversight

On November 14, 2008, Warren was appointed by United States Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to chair the five-member Congressional Oversight Panel created to oversee the implementation of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act.[22] The Panel releases monthly oversight reports that evaluate the government bailout and related programs.

The banks paid back TARP with interest. Warren had oversight.
Anyone know where the trillion went, because we haven't seen any trillion deficit reduction.
Did they throw the money elsewhere to Democrat backers like Obama did with his stimulus for government unions.

Ya know, it's funny, I saw the video and thought, wow she lost before she started. Viscerally, people. know she is wrong. All of us know someone who risked it all and became fabulously wealthy.
We all, also know many people who risked it all and went broke. Both sets of people did it all on their own.

I suspect a troll to you is anyone that disagrees with the idiotic positions of the left. I did not need to review your repost of an idiot. I saw her live. I'm not saying she doesn't present her side of politics well. She is a school marm that is what I would expect a school marm to say.

Sir, instead of calling people trolls for disagreeing with nimcompoop philosophies of existence have the decency to hold your temper tantrums and debate. I would also expect you to hide under the bed once challenged by anyone that you understand understands what you do not.
