What are you talking about? Today, only 9% of all of the wealth of millionaires was inherited. Do some research before you post flat-out lies.
I would have thought less than 9%. You can add the CEOs of all those .... hey wait a minute, aren't they on Wall Street? I wonder why they chose that location?

The real issue is why are you whining about millionaires when it is proven that the vast majority are self made. Either work harder and smarter and make something more of yourself, or stop complaining.

I think there is a very clear problem that many are ignoring for some strange reason. It's a problem this Country has seen before.
I can't help but think how much wealthier certain posters on this forum would be if they spent as much time studying as they did complaining about the wealthy.

After seeing and reading the stories of these "99%'rs".....I'd be embarrassed to be a Liberal on this board, that's for sure. Seriously, how can this population be considered a good representation of your ideology? My goodness...all of you should be pink faced right now.

I don't know about the specific stories, but I understand their frustrations and would be really embarrassed, if I didn't.

I would be embarrassed, if I were not a liberal on this board. Actually, I would be embarrassed not to be a liberal period, but hey that is just me.
I think the only ones who would be embarrassed are the kids holding up sheets of paper blaming the government for their own bad life choices.
There are a few people who seem genuine and I feel bad for... like the ones who do not qualify or cannot afford health care even though they are very very ill. Or the older people who are struggling yet are too old or unhealthy to work.
But I have nothing but giggles and give-me-a-breaks for the "I have 100K in school loans and live with my parents and work at Starbuck's and can't afford name brand diapers for my baby and my baby daddy left me... AND I'm driving last years Prius and my iphone is 6 months old..." crowd...
